Major Graphics issue, 2009 Macbook Pro

Hi I downloaded the game via game.co.uk, installed correctly, patched correctly. Installed Visual C++ 2008 Re-dist correctly (I think).

On "Play" button, sound comes through fine flashing background and menu comes up green and white. Can progress through menus just can't see them properly at all. A Nvidia Driver update message appeared. I have read on other forums some people have had similar problems via bootcamp with my macbook pro model. Although I also found someone with same laptop specs enjoying the game on bootcamp. Any Ideas on how to resolve this. I'm running the latest beta release of crossover atm.

Mac OS X
2.26 Ghz Intel Core 2 Duo
2 Gb 1067 Mhz DDR3
Nvidia Geforce 9400 M (256mb VRAM)

Any help would be much appreciated,
Thanks Simon.

Fixed Now :D Just reinstalled via the cross-tie, think it may have been a problem with the initial Visual C++ 2008 install when I installed it manually.

Brilliant game so far, works well with Low graphics settings on the above described Macbook Pro Model. Still feels a bit buggy with the sound but barely noticeable and thoroughly enjoyable.

So does this mean the game is working for macs now? I didn't think it was going to be working for macs until the next build was released.

It works with the beta version of Crossover Games.

Only problem that I've really encountered so far is that on my computer I can't use my map much ... It gives me a lag spike of about 5-10 seconds, so I just use my mini map instead of opening the big map (how I usually navigate.) A little bit of an annoyance, but being able to play this game without booting into boot camp or any of those virtual machines is awesome so I can't complain
