Just want to make sure I have it right, TSF was only developed for the PC and released in Europe?
Is there a version/hack for the Mac of this?

There PC emulators for Macs, though. Not sure if JJ2 works with them.

Most emulators don't support DirectX well or at all, so you'd be better off using something like Boot Camp or an actual PC.

JJ2 uses DirectX by default, however that can be disabled so that the graphics run entirely on GDI.

There's no JJ2TSF for Mac... You could buy an Intel Mac where you could easily let Windows or Linux run...

Use Boot Camp if you've got an Intel Mac. In my experience, every single Windows app works perfectly with Boot Camp (which makes sense, since it's just a regular Windows install with some fancy drivers).

Just be sure you get some kind of virus scanning tool so your Windows partition doesn't get virus-ridden. There's at least 144,000 viruses to worry about.

(Al Quaida uses Macintosh and therefore hates Windows. They are the ones who make all viruses to Windows - which is proven by the fact that they don't make any for Macintosh.)

Using a new thing called the Cider gaming engine (a tool used to port PC games to OS X without having to code a single thing), I've successfully got TSF running on the Mac. I can't really send it to you, but if you happen to legally acquire a copy of the Cider engine, I can give you instructions on how to make it work easily enough.

I'd like to know how smooth this new "Mac TSF" runs.

About as well as Jazz 2 runs on Wine, since Cider is based on the same code.

(so probably okay but with sudden random crashes for no reason to aggravate and cause hair pulling)

It runs great, and I've had only one crash (no idea what brought it on). It runs a bit better than I've seen the game running on Wine (better framerate), but there's absolutely no PowerPC support (don't know if Wine has PPC support anyway though).
