Yes! You need to use MetaKitExtract to get the music out of the JTRH dats, put it in the Music folder in TCB or GatEB, and tweak the TCB/GatEB drod.ini.

Good news for Lion users!

I've upgraded previous DROD games to be compatible with 64-bit Macs and built new versions of the games. I've uploaded 64-bit Intel OSX demo versions to the CG site for download for KDD 2.0, JtRH, TCB and DROD RPG. I've also added links to purchase these versions through the site, and added links to the Downloads page for registered users to download these new builds to try out. If you're running 10.7 on a 64-bit Mac and have been waiting for a chance to play DROD again, your time has come!

Please note: some users have reported the game doesn't start on their 64-bit Mac when run in fullscreen mode. So, if you already have player data on your Mac for these games, and you were last playing in fullscreen mode, the game might not start for you when you run it. If this happens to you, please try this:

Open "Terminal" and type:
open -a DROD-TCB-64bit --args nofullscreen


(or whatever the name of the game's app is)

It should run now. Uncheck "Full screen" mode in your player settings so you don't have to do this anymore.

Have fun DRODing on 10.7!

OK, how do I go about updating the DROD version in my Wineskin wrapper? I'm not quite sure how to get to current, and don't want to be stuck not being able to play some holds because I'm one or more versions back again, like I was with TCB.

*grumbles about 32-bit IntelMac not running the 64-bit binaries*
