The xml files on disk are fine and there is no problem when running the same mod on Windows. I am using the

Hi, Sorry, may be I'm a little off topic/ but my problem also concerns Civilization V.

Hello! I've tried to port these following games: -Magic: The Gathering - Duels of the Planeswalkers -Magic: The Gathering - Duels of the Planeswalkers 2012 ...but to no avail.

I'm using Leopard and I'm new to wine, MacPorts, the use of the terminal, and coding in general. Because of this, some of the language in the FAQ seems foreign to me and hasn't been very helpful, or its geared toward Unix users and not Mac OS X users. ISSUE#1: I managed to install wine through MacPorts and use it to run a game. I've used Crossover to install and run the same game

Building 1.3.26 and 1.3.27 on 10.6 or 10.7 using a 10.5 SDK it will build fine and still work on 10.6 and
