Falco Mac OS
MacSoft, publisher of such Mac gaming staples as Quake and Civilization II, has a knack for unleashing products that tax Macs to their very limits. Last year’s Unreal, for example, was happiest with 80MB of real RAM and a G3 processor. This year, MacSoft has upped the ante with Falcon 4.0, a modern F-16 flight simulator that–to look and play its very best–requests a fast G3 processor, 3-D-acceleration hardware, and several hundred megabytes of hard-disk space. Woe is you if you attempt these dangerous skies with significantly less-powerful hardware.

The word hefty applies not only to Falcon 4.0’s system requirements but to its manual as well. The tome’s 600-plus pages hint that this flight sim is not to be taken lightly. Falcon is currently the closest thing Mac gamers have to piloting a real fighter jet and, as such, is as choked with electronic readouts and advanced weapons systems as the manual is with arcane acronyms. Users should therefore plan on spending days poring over the manual and running through the 31 training missions.
Falco Mac Os Update
Hi Falco, Thank you for your response and for these details. We have found that a reason for the issue can, in fact, be related to updated Mac OS to Mojave and some default settings of MonoDevelop which the IDE is based on. 24 results match your search. 1 title has been excluded based on your preferences. Fixed the inability to start an emulator in certain cases on 64-bit Mac OS X machines with SDK tools version 23.0.4 or newer (JENKINS-26893) Switched to using 'init.svc.bootanim' to more reliably detect boot completion, where appropriate (JENKINS-22555) Removed reliance on the aapt tool and the unreliable detection code surrounding it. On either a Classic Mac OS, Basilisk II or SheepShaver and also under Classic on a PPC Mac OS X. Drag the zip onto a closed MacZip icon and let it auto-extract the contents for (easiest) good results. These DiskDup+ files will then mount just fine, if you drag their icons onto Disk Copy 6.1.2 or newer. Falco Christow (10) John Ray (10) Joe Pindar (7) Andrew Gertz (7). (GBDM) for Windows and Mac OS. GBDM V3.1 for Windows 10 introduces the multi-host feature.
Complex though Falcon 4.0 may be, that complexity comes with rewards. To begin with, under hardware acceleration, the game is gorgeous. The morning and twilight skies are properly hazy; missiles leave realistic contrails; and until you drop your fighter close to the deck, the rolling landscape looks like the real thing. Regrettably, without hardware acceleration, the game’s graphics are chunky, and unless you have a very fast Mac and lots of RAM (meaning a 300MHz or faster G3 and 128MB of RAM), performance suffers with all the graphic goodies switched on.
According to fighter pilots who frequent newsgroups, Falcon 4.0’s flight modeling is realistic. For us ground dwellers, this means that although the plane flies smoothly, landing can be tricky–novice pilots should expect to damage a lot of landing gear and lose several planes along the way.
Falcon 4.0 comes with just about everything one should expect from a modern flight sim–a large theater of operation (the Korean peninsula), three campaigns choked with dozens of missions, network and Internet play that supports mano a mano dogfights as well as up to four 4-player teams, and a mission builder that allows you to create your own missions. What it doesn’t come with is a three-ring binder for the documentation, a handy feature in the PC version of the game.
Macworld’s Buying Advice 
Falcon 4.0 will push the limits of both your Macintosh and your piloting skills. Casual flight enthusiasts will likely find the game too demanding, but those with the desire, patience, and hardware to fly the Mac’s most realistic combat flight sim should strap into Falcon 4.0.
