    i hate windows and want to burn all of them! hahahhahah
     
    Well you can run Windows XP on a mac for free and run the tools there. Go on the Mac website or google Windows on a Mac and you'll find it

    No duh you can run windows on mac!!! who doesnt know tht......the programs r bootcamp parlles or crossover just google it and u will be able to download it
     
    You can use WINE (a windows emulator) to use hacking tools and programs.
     
    [Edit]

    Oh dear I miss read to question, so just ignore what I said about PPC if you saw it D=

    [/Edit]

    Right im sure Tile Mole will run on it as it is a Java application. As for everything not Graphical based, there is bound to be a hex editor avaliable for OS X.

    Just get Windows for Mac, its not that expensive
     
    Pokescript and BufRite doesn't work when using WINE on a Mac. But all other programs do work perfectly.

    Does anyone have any program that could run in a Mac with WINE and X11, but, does not need Windows commands [off WINE] like the Compile one?

    A native OS X application? What are you asking here? What would be the point in WINE?

    Ahh I see, you are asking if there are any open sorce programs around. I think there are, but most of them are coded in silly VB.
     
    im using a mac too.



    i tried downloading darwin port, but it downloaded macports is that right?


    also after i install it, it saves to the mac HD but i cant find it.



    i really want to start hacking a rom but cant get any hacking tools for mac.

    Try this in terminal
    Code:
    cd /opt/local/bin/
    sudo port install wine

    Then after it's done...
    Code:
    cd /opt/local/bin/
    wine winecfg.exe

    Then just use
    Code:
    wine file.exe
    to start a progam
     
    Try this in terminal
    Code:
    cd /opt/local/bin/
    sudo port install wine

    Then after it's done...
    Code:
    cd /opt/local/bin/
    wine winecfg.exe

    Then just use
    Code:
    wine file.exe
    to start a progam




    i got this far
    Code:
    cd /opt/local/bin/
    sudo port install wine
    but in the file bin there are two files called port and portf, and both tell me to chose an application.

    Open the terminal and type it in, dont go to /opt/local/bin in the GUI file manager, which i assume you have done, as other wise what you said wouldn't have happend.
     
    i tried using it in the terminal but i get a message saying
    Code:
    Library not loaded: /usr/lib/libcurl.4.dylib

    Very incorrect statement, WINE stands for "Wine Is Not an Emulator".

    I don't know what it is instead though TT_TT


    Another thing: I've tried that, it doesn't work. I use VirtualBox to hack instead.
