*Warcraft requires a color display with a minimum of 256 colors and 640x480 resolution. Warcraft is completely native on the Power Macintosh. It requires a Macintosh or Power Macintosh (or compatible) for best results, a 68040 or PowerPC processor is strongly recommended. *Warcraft has a minimum requirement of System 7.0 or greater. To quote the manual, the Mac version of the game has the following system requirements:

At least the image that I created with my trial version of CloneCD seems to contain both 'partitions' or filesystems (Mac & PC) along with all the audio CD tracks but I would have to actually test/play the Mac version to be totally sure. Since hybrid discs are somewhat special, I wonder if programs such as CloneCD could make completely identical disk images of the CD. In addition to playing the Mac version of the game, I would like to make a 1:1 digital copy of the hybrid CD for preservation purposes. This means that I would have to find an optical disc authoring program that is supported by the old Macintosh operating systems that the emulators can run.

Moreover, since all of my host computers are PCs equipped with 64-bit flavors of Windows 7 and 8, I cannot access any CDs within the emulated Macintosh as the necessary file, cdenable.sys, is a 32-bit driver. I tried to configure a couple of emulators with the help of the instructions that can be found at but the results were poor, and to be honest, I found the emulators rather lacking in functionality as I was repeatedly greeted by a delightful black screen of death after launching the emulators despite experimenting with a myriad of configurations. Besides, I'm a complete neophyte with Macs вЂ“ they're not particularly widely used here in northern Europe when compared to the most Mac-friendly countries. The problem is that I do not have any old Macintoshes at my disposal at the moment so I would have to resort to using emulators, virtual machines or compatibility layers. Allegedly, the Mac release has VGA graphics at 640x480 pixels (or it could be fake 640x480 which looks similar to 320x240 as the pixels can be doubled вЂ“ I wish I knew) and actual audio CD tracks instead of MIDI music. Since there are rumors floating around about the Macintosh verion being slightly revamped from its MS-DOS counterpart, I would like to try out the Mac version of the game.

The hybrid CD can be read by both a PC and a Mac вЂ“ when the CD is inserted into a PC, you'll see all the MS-DOS-compatible files whereas a Macintosh would only show the files that are understood by Mac-specific filesystems.

The game was released on a so-called hybrid disc which contains the Macintosh version of the game along with its MS-DOS counterpart. I have the 1996 Macintosh version of 'Warcraft: Orcs & Humans'.
