HWG (this program cannot run under a virtual machine

Mr_Genedy

I used to run windows but recently i switched to iOS. Since this game is incompatible with iOS i downloaded programs called wine and winebottler which i used to run any windows games; i ran on it command and conquer. I thought crossfire wll work and when i tried and error came to me right after the download patcher, when HWG is launched saying,"Sorry, this application cannot run under a Virtual Machine". I ask help solving this problem or hopefully an iOS version of this game.

Windows on bootcamp ... Mac OS & games NOPE '-'

Windows

Apple don't install much space on the SSD. i have 128 GB hard disk and i will suffer if i use quarter of that for windows. Also installing windows will reduce mac performance. I seek any other solution but that

CF used to run on virtual machines but they changed it so it can't to reduce farming and use of bots. Using Windows is your only option.

there is another option which is not playing this game or get this game working for virtual machines

Even if you had it running on a VM it would be fairly glitchy and crappy fps unless you have a decent rig. Guessing by the 128 ssd probably not.
VM require the bypassing of xtrap or fooling it, no one here should help you with that.

Sorry

iOS is for iPhones and iPads... you mean mac OS X
i almost thought it was a troll post trying to run CF on a phone
CF is unable to run under wine, and HGWC and xTrap use driver-level stuff to detect cheats, which is by defenition unable to run under wine, you will never get any xTrap game to run under wine, your only option is to dual-boot with windows (bootcamp)

there is a way to get it to run under VMware, with a lot of tinkering and fooling with registry and vmware settings, but don't bother with it, the fps is playable but the mouse integration with VMware needs to be disabled resulting in verry janky mouse movement to put it lightly, not verry playable
virtualbox also works with some tweaks, but the fps will be below 10, and all walls will be white so don't bother with that either
you won't be able to run it on in any playable state unless you bootcamp/dualboot

My friend runs CF on Bootcamp perfectly fine.

It doesn't run on vmachines to prevent multiple operating systems open for farming. You need something like Bootcamp to completely reboot your computer into a different os.
