Comments
I have been able to have the game working by downloading the update from Feral at this URL :
http://www.feralinteractive.com/downloads/chessmaster9k/Chessmaster9000.zip
and then applying the patch from download #12 on this page.
Worked on a MacBook late 2007 X86/Mac os X Lion. Hope it can help.
Any luck in getting it to run? Having the same issue.
Thanks. I don't have the DVD, I was trying to use the .dmg and "no_cd" versions here. I also downloaded the manual but still getting the same error
You have to reinstalled the DVD but Manual is also on website.
Could you help me understand how you got it working? I keep getting an error telling me that the "ChessMaster 9000 Manual.pdf" is not part of the installation, and to re-install from the DVD. Thanks in advance
I can verify that Chessmaster 9000 works with Mac OS 10.14.6 Mojave!
Installer doesn't seem to work for me via Rosetta on 10.6.8, at least on a 2008 Mac Pro.
I learned from another thread that BetterZip 1.8.3 can be used to extract these files (they work sort of like a rar archive series). Great up - thank you!
im not sure what to do with the .00x files once they're downloaded. i tried to unzip but zip said 6 files had no zipfile directory. command at terminal was unzip "*.zip*"
please advise
Added No-CD
