The Mac OS Version/Files with high-res Textures(640x480) not working correct. #4

I have no sound/music and got artefacts too with the "improved" Descent Version. Some years ago, I was able to get the Mac Version (.hog and .pig files) because the "crosshair" and the cockpit looks way better as on DOS (320x200). The normal "shareware" stuff runs well so I think your DXX-Raytracer might not be "compatible" with the MAC files? Maybe you can fix that.

Mac version is way different than the dos version it uses cd readbook audio for music and mac source code was never released to public. the port is looking for the dos version of the hog and pig file version 1.4a or higher. im not sure what the mac patch version of the hog and pig file are thats could be why its not working and mac version doesnt have midi music support at the time when the game came out on mac.

I don't think this will ever get an official fix from us. Will still leave this open in case someone else deems this worth to look at and fix.
