Hey all. I used to be active on these forums about 20 years ago, or a little less.
I periodically come back to FSO becuase I love the game what can I say and I get the urge to play again.
This time I had to relearn a few things - difference between the older buggier (but still big improvement over wxlauncher) Knossos and Knossos.NET, for example.
I actually thought I still had to play using a VM so I set up Knossos.NET on that VM and then I learned it still runs on Mac LOL (Same install).
And wow. finally everything works - I'd seen online that things were working better in the last 2 years but wow It's still super nice to realize through all that struggle my pitiful Mac can still play a retrogame and have it be this good.
Knossos.NET and the upgrade and working campaigns are looking better than I ever played them - even ones i voice acted in like Echo Gate (except the HUD, no biggie).
I just wanted to say Thank You to whoever you are, the game and it's condition means the world to me.

Thank you! We may be just a bunch of nerds, but we're doing our best :]. KNET is huuuuge difference indeed and for me personally. It's like the first humane experience with Knossos. Previous builds were very plagued with issues of all kinds, both for modders and players.
