Well On The OpenBVE Site Its Supposed To Have A Version For Mac. There Are Several Users On The Site That Use Mac And Run OpenBVE. Download The Version on The Site And See If It Will Work.

Oh It Actually Works For Mac. The Thing Is You Have to Download The Dependencies For Mac.

Just give it a rest, alright? He honestly shouldn't take playing OpenBVE at school(or trying to log into the administrator's side of the computer) very seriously. OpenBVE, in my honest opinion, is a simulator meant for the personal computer.

The point is, check out the OpenBVE home page and see if there is a Mac version. If I remember correctly, there's a topic around these forums which shows you how to get OpenBVE on Mac.

openBVE needs the .NET Framework. You can't get that on a OS other then Windows, which means you need to find workarounds to that. Read all the instructions. I know it gives you a Windows version, but if you read the instructions you can still launch the game.

Read the ENTIRE thing. Don't skip around else your gonna miss  something.
