how to run NOLF 1 using original disc on a modern macbook pro?

[stephent]

apologies if this is not the right place for this question...

I have the original discs for both NOLF 1 and 2 - mac version.

on my relatively modern macbook pro (big sur) Finder sees the disc for NOLF 2; but it doesn't even see the disc for NOLF 1.

any insight on how to make the game run?

Mike_Mac put THIS together for running on a Mac.

 

Might be a place to start.

From what I remember, both Mac versions are PPC (PowerPC) based games. If you want to play them on a modern Mac you'll need to get copies of the PC version and then try out the instructions Eliteone mentioned. If your Mac is an Intel version the Wine wrapper for the games should be fine. If it is the latest M1-based Mac you may need to wait until / if the Wine wrapper gets updated.
