Hey!
i play TF2 on an iMac using Crossover Games. i have a big problem finding the TF2 directories, in particular the one which houses the demos. if anyone could help me that would be appreciated. and yes i have had the ‘dont buy a mac’ etc. etc. so u dont have to post that again ; )
dont buy a mac -_-
but seriously
D:-Steam Folder-steamapps-ijantis-team fortress 2-tf
is mine
Edit: the – is a directory line as the backslash doesnt appear
I don’t think crossover has any of those directories. Why don’t you just use bootcamp? I think it’s a lot easier.
are u able to use demos with bootcamp on a mac? i mean like someone sends u a DEM file and u paste it into the correct directory and u can run it?

Of course. Bootcamp is just that you run windows on a mac so it works just like any other computer.
The folder is definitely there flush. Search your MacHD for tf or cfg to find the path to it. I can’t remember it. Although I would suggest if you have a copy of XP or Vista to use that through bootcamp instead. Crossover isn’t amazing.
oh yep ur absolutely right daith… its frustrating because i can record demos and play them back, and using demoui i can see the folder in which they are housed XD
erm… if this helps? the folder housing all the tf2 stuff is on the c:// drive and all the mac stuff is on the y:// drive… mac dosent use drives but id really like to know how to access the c:// drive so i can find the much sought after tf2 folders.
yes crossover does suck -.- ^^
I’m not 100% sure, but (at least when I tried Crossover Games) it saves the gamefiles in “Leopard/Users/*username*/Applications/Crossover Games”
As far as I can remember, it saves them in the same structure as on Windows, meaning you should look for an folder called “tf”.
Otherwise, see if you can find a file with a few gigabytes in size, then right-click on it and select “Show Package Contents”.
EDIT: “The CrossOver Bottle files are located at:
/Users/YOURUSERNAMEHERE/Library/Application Support/CorssOver Games/Bottles
From there select your bottle and the rest of the structure is like the Windows file structure.”

Hope this helps :)
tf2 on crossover games is pretty cool, i use it when im travelling. just sign out of steam friends before you go in game.
