Uhm, I don't understand what you meen by not native. I am playing on a MBP and it runs superfast and supersmooth. But I have the aspyr games. If you have the windows-games you either need to split your HDD to get a windows partion or buy the mac-games.

Simmers' Paradise / Mac-Users Only Peer Support / hotkeys for mac
|

Yes. I do not know the correct wording for this on english, since my system is on norwegian. But I'll try and explain. Press the apple in the left corner and go to "system choices" (where you modify everything that has to do with your mac) Enter "keyboard and mouse". Go into keyboard. Now, there should be a box that says something like "use all hotkeys (F1, F2 etc) as standard hotkeys (when this choice is checked, hold in the FN button to use the specialfunctions on the keys)
What that last line means: When you tick that box, all the hotkeys will work as they should ingame, in bodyshop and so on. To i.e. change the volume, you will need to hold the FN button in the lower left corner of the keyboard, while you press the F4 button.
Hope you understood that, I suck at translating such things.

Simmers' Paradise / General Sims 2 Help / Headmaster turns me down with an 84 score.

I always earn well over a 100 points from the headmaster. First the tour, then some schmoozing while another sim makes dinner, and by the time he sits down to eat, my score is already over 80. 90 is the -minimum- you need to fill. When you've passed 90, he says godbye and leaves with the message that the kids have gotten into private school.
Also, there is an option on the headmaster (entertain->serve dinner or something) that you should use to get him to come eat. It really doesn't matter who's at the table, as long as he isn't eating alone and he likes the food.

Simmers' Paradise / Mac-Users Only Peer Support / BootCamp

Good luck! And if anything goes wrong, it's just to delete the partition again, I've done this twice because I didn't make the windows partition big enough the first time ^^

Simmers' Paradise / Mac-Users Only Peer Support / Best Mac?

The only file I can access on my mac is the desktop, so I download stuff from the mac and place it in a folder on the desktop (i guess you know about how you can drag&drop folders so they lie in the left bar in finder), and I made a folder on the desktop to take pictures with. Since Im only using windows for simming, I don't care if the desktop looks like a mess XD

Im using bootcamp. We aware that you have to get all the games for PC. The only thing bootcamp DOES, is to split the harddrive and help you install windows. When you want to go into windows, you turn of the mac and press the alt-button while pressing the startup-button, then choose to enter windows. Be aware that the first time you install windows, you must choose in bootcamp (bootcamp automaticly opens) that Mac is the standard HD.
You need Leopard to do this, and you should have at least 20 gig on the windows partition. Windows itself takes 5 gig, so then you have 15 gig left for all the EP's, SP's and CC.

My windows is 30 GB, you can choose. It must be minimum 5GB, but you can choose how much over it is. I choose 30 to have place for all EPs, and tons of CC XD I have a 160gig HD.
