And so, after two years, I have a new and updated guide for the 3D Prince of Persia games on Mac OS. This video guide involves both the GOG.com versions of the game as well as the Steam versions of the games. First, there is the Steam Installation Guide, both in video as well as in written form. After that is done, the installation is straightforward on Steam, the big key is to not have the High Resolution Mode checked off in the special preferences box, as shown below, as the Prince of Persia Games
were not developed for playing in high definition resolutions.
Advanced Settings for the Steam Bottle |
Now, with the preferences established for Steam, you are free to run the Prince of Persia games. The games will run smoothly with minimal issues. Now on to the somewhat more complex, but still functional gameplay using the GOG.com versions of the games.
For the GOG.com version of The Sands of Time, the default settings for the CrossTie will be to install the game in Steam, as shown below. You will need to set the installer to the GOG Installer, and set the Bottle to be Windows 7 64-bit.
