Untested Mac Question

[Shizuma]

Hi there, this is my first post, so please take it easy
I've had a mac now for a year and just started getting into WoW, and am in the middle of reinstalling WoW on the new updated mac.
Question is ..
Has anyone tried using a windows emulator to run xp in the background and using Cheat Enginer or a different packet editor of sorts while playing on the Mac side?

I would think since warden scans for all processes running, it wouldn't really scan that deep into a typical "program" running a sub-program within it?
IE
Play WoW on Mac
Launch XP emulator program
Launch CE in emulation
run CE through Emul. into WoW

that type of deal, or am I just thinking too hard?

Thanks,
Me!

If you run XP in a virtual machine, everything is completely contained within that VM. The only middle ground you have between the two is the virtual machine software itself, which will only transmit data between the two if it is designed to do so.
The same thing basically goes for something like Crossover. While it isn't the same as a virtual machine, you won't really be able to make the applications within it work with your Mac software.

Also worthy of note is that there is no Warden on the Mac WoW client. You would think this would really motivate people to make more Mac-based cheat engines or bots, but it just isn't so.

You can't, Like ^ said, VMs are self-contained. And even if you could, windows and mac do NOT use the same kind of memory functions.
