Hi,
Using WINE I have installed FA on my Mac, and I can run the game using DosBox for Mac. However, when I try to start a new game, it asks for the game disc. Obviously there is something that GOG uses to workaround this, perhaps a command line modifier in the start game shortcut .lnk file, but I don't know what it is. Does anyone here know a way to disable the disc check and have it use the files on the hard drive?
EDIT: I've found how to do it. Run DOSBox, then:
mount c ~/<your fragile allegiance folder>
mount d ~/<your fragile allegiance folder> -t cdrom
