HB Mac Supported

[tomhesselryd]

As thread says, will HB/GB become Mac supported in the future?
i know i can use bootcamp, but it's much more easier to just have it mac supported

I used VMW fusion to launch HB and play wow on mac. But with new releases that didnt work anymore. I asked the question here for Tony if they will support it or not. Link

You will never see native support for Macs. Honorbuddy is largely written in C#, and that's a language/platform that is not available for the Macs. There are also technical issues involving how Honorbuddy communicates with the WoWclient that are only available in the Windoze environment.

Your choices for Mac involve Bootcamp or VMware, like you've already identified. Due to Honorbuddy design decisions made early on, that's the way it will always stay.

HB cannot run without:
.Net Framework sp1 3.5
Direct X

all things that do not work natively on OSX

Also, why the hell would anyone make a HB for mac when less than 10% of the users use OSX?
