For a list of changes to the Windows version of Oni, see here. For a list of changes to the PPC Mac version of Oni, see here.

In 2011, Feral Interactive released a beta for an Intel build for Mac Oni on the Oni Central Forum. Per fan requests, they included a number of patches that were either made by hex edits to the previous PPC build (documented here), wished for, or made to Windows Oni by the Daodan DLL. These changes are listed below.

Known issues

  • While playing in Windowed mode, the game and computer cursor are not synced, so one can click outside the game window and disrupt the game. Workaround: set the game resolution to the display resolution (or as close as possible) to minimize the disruption.
