Nanosaur was updated and re-released here ( ) with permission by Pangea Software. Nanosaur has switched to a tailor-made renderer as of version 1.4.2. Quesa is an independent implementation of QuickDraw 3D it was incredibly useful to get the game up and running initially. The first release of this port used a custom fork of Quesa to render the game’s 3D graphics.

Later, I extended Pomme to port several other Pangea games from the Mac OS 7-9 era (see “other Pangea game ports” below). You can think of Pomme as a cross-platform reimagining of Carbon, albeit at a much smaller scope.

To make it easier to port the game, I wrote an implementation of parts of the Macintosh Toolbox API, which I called “ Pomme”. The overall experience is intended to be faithful to the spirit of the original game, so modifications to the game’s design are out of the scope of this project. It introduces some modern comforts (such as support for arbitrary resolutions) and fixes some gameplay bugs. This port aims to provide the best way to experience Nanosaur today. (Note: the restrictive terms in that link are ancient - Pangea does endorse the existence of this port today.) Project goals In 1999, Pangea released Nanosaur’s source code to the public. It’s also notable for being a prominent showcase of QuickDraw 3D’s capabilities, which was Apple’s high-level 3D graphics API during the 90s. Nanosaur was bundled with the original iMac and ran on Mac OS 8.

However, the game does play well on a MacPicasso 3Dfx card, but still not as good as on an ATI Rage Pro card. It will "run", but not correctly and we do not recommend this card for playing Nanosaur. Many people want to know if Nanosaur will run correctly on their Power3D 3Dfx card. You will need to buy another 2 Megs for your Mac if you want to play Nanosaur. Most older (1998 or earlier) Macintoshes which come with built-in 3D acceleration only have 2 Megs which is not enough to run the game.

IMPORTANT: The full version of Nanosaur is the "4 Meg version." This means that you need at least 4 Megs of VRAM on your 3D accelerator card for the game to run.

No other card runs Nanosaur as well as this card. This card is the only card which will show off all of Nanosaur's effects and features. We strongly recommend the use of an ATI Rage Pro series card from ATI. You will need a 3D accelerator card in order to play Nanosaur. You can go to the Nanosaur Files page to download any of these.

Make sure the downloaded file decompressed.
