[EDIT] -- I figured out my question...how to enable HoF mode on the Mac. For help to anyone who wants to, here is how:
1. Go to your Applications folder, find the Icewind Dale icon, and control-click to select "Show Package Contents"
2. Navigate to: > Contents > Resources > drive_c > GOG Games > Icewind Dale Complete
3. Open up the "icewind.ini" file using textedit.
4. Add the line (without quotes of course): "Nightmare Mode=1"
That is it. Next time you start up the difficulty slider will be fixed on insane and you are in HoF mode.
[/EDIT]
[ORIGINAL MESSAGE:]
I cant figure out how to start Heart of Fury mode on IWD from GOG either. I am on a mac and is Wineskin making this all more complicated?
I'm reading references to how its possible to play in this mode, but I see no checkbox at all for HoF mode in the Options > Gameplay screen. The difficulty slider ends at insane and there is nothing else, no box for HoF anywhere on that screen. I have beaten the game on insane difficulty so HoF mode should be available right?
I found the config.exe file at:
Applications > Icewind Dale > Contents > Resources > drive_c > GOG Games > Icewind Dale Complete
but if you click on this, nothing happens other than my unzip-type program trying to unpack it (its more like a windows .exe file that wont run on a mac).
Is there a text preferences file somewhere else on the mac where I set HoF mode to 1 instead of 0 or something? If so I can't find it.
Any help much appreciated.
