I also haven’t touched CS 1.6 for 15-16 years, it will be cool to try it. Is it ...

Recently tried running on Mac M2 and it was relatively easy: https://thatskevinjain.github.io/jekyll/update/2025/01/10/cs...

Isn’t ported to ARM64. Runs really well in Whisky though.

I've been using this to play TF2 Classic on my M3 MBP and it works perfectly. I had some freezing-while-sound-skips-endlessly issues when using the voice chat hotkey, but that was resolved using WineTricks (built in to Whisky UI) to install `dsound`.

Now's a great time to start playing — The TF2C 2.2 “Double Down Update” comes out today!! https://tf2classic.com/double_down/

e: And I also had to disable macOS's default keyboard layout switching shortcuts (which I never use anyway) since I kept triggering it while crouch-jumping lol

Back in the days on lan parties there was what we called "the russian version" that only had question marks in the installation dialog (Because of unsupported fonts most likely) which had Z-Bot included.

That's probably this one: https://archive.org/details/cs-1_6_z-bot

You had the fonts, but your system was configured for cp1250 or something like that, while the installer used cp1251. So it was a text encoding issue.
