So I’ve been dying to play this on OS X for quite some time to no avail.  So after the CrossOver give away I thought I’d be set! .. I installed steam, spent forever downloading and installing Fallout to only get either a blank white screen when running in full screen mode, or a black window running in a window.
So finally messing with ‘bottle’ settings I stumbled on the ability to run a session in an ’emulated desktop’. Â And with that setup with a big enough resolution, boom run it again and it works fine in a window!
Sadly I never held onto my save games so looks like I’ll be starting from scratch.
You should have a look at the Porting Team. They collect pre-made container based on various technologies (wine, CrossOver, Cider) for quit a lot of windows games to make them run on MacOS X.
Cheers,
