[quote="ANDYBAZ"]I am trying to access Soma from my Mac using microsoft remote desktop. The first title window opens fine but when i click 'PLAY' i get the message "the client has stopped working" Anyone else tried doing this and have any suggestions i could try to get it working?[/quote]

[quote="DEAMOND"]As far as i know it cannot work with RDP due to the colour options with this game. [/quote]

[quote="ANDYBAZ"]bummer.... ill still keep my fingers crossed for now though[/quote]

[quote="ANDYBAZ"]Am i right in thinking if i setup a virtual windows 7 machine using virtual box i should be able to run from that?[/quote]

[quote="DEAMOND"]I don't see why not as it sees the OS as Win 7 [/quote]

[quote="BRADC"]Install soma onto pc, copy files onto and sd card on your phone, connect to the microsoft pc you using and open as storage files - run shortcut [/quote]

[quote="ANDYBAZ"]Brad i have soma installed on PC and working fine...and i have an iphone, can please explain a bit further what to do...as im not sure files you mean and what to do with them exactly. I do have RDP on the iPhone but it doesnt work on that either, same error message[/quote]

It may offer better support for the 16bit colour mode remotely [/quote]

[quote="ANDYBAZ"]Team viewer is not an option im afraid but a great idea thanks...im now looking into using Wineskin on the mac but im not quite getting that too work either[/quote]
