Install fails at point 2 in the OSX install guide. Line 2 reads: Code: ruby -e "$(curl -fsSL https://raw.github.com/mxcl/homebrew/go)" Should be Code: ruby -e "$(curl -fsSL https://raw.github.com/Homebrew/homebrew/go/install)" |

Thanks for the report, I've forwarded this to our web guy to see if he can edit it

Lol, no worries Enk and thanks Vert. Found a couple more: Point 9 is Code: cd ~/.wine/drive_c/users/$USERNAME/Application Data/Star Sonata 2/ wine Star Sonata.exe &> /dev/null Should read as Code: cd ~/.wine/drive_c/users/$USER"/Application Data/Star Sonata 2/" wine "Star Sonata.exe" &> /dev/null Above works without needing actual username substituted so Code: (replace $USERNAME with your username on the computer) Btw, I've followed the above and still can't get the game to run. It gets to patchbot, finishes hashing then the progress indicator starts flashing like crazy and sits there for a couple of hours. Anyone had this & found a workaround? I'm on OSX 10.6 Edit: looks like there's a crash dialogue window opening in the background, log display is a bit messed up but looks like the last entry was executing actions.bat or finished processing script queue. |

Are you running patchbot manually or letting the client launch it? I always run patchbot manually with Code: wine patchbot.exe and then launch the client after it's done. |

I think the first time patchbot ran was just after the install when it tried to auto launch the client? I had to quit wine that time as patchbot became unresponsive to input. Running patchbot separately without launch when completed still produced a "star sonata has crashed" error with a dump file but allowed me to run the star sonata client afterward once I closed the crash notification. OSX instructions might need an extra step added for running patchbot independently after install and prior to SS client launch. Cheers - Skirmish. |

Or maybe Jey can figure out why it doesn't work to let the client launch patchbot. |

Or compile an OSX binary  Unfortunately Jey confirmed for no mac so could be tricky. I'll pass on the dumps generated during the install and hope something shows up :3

an osx library will not happen until the day we decide to spend a LOT of time rewriting our engine to depend on opengl instead of d3d to name the biggest obstacle (its somewhat easy to do a crude conversion, but we have a lot of d3d only optimisations that would basicly bring the client back to the launch performance (horrible) for months / year in open gl, before both would have performance worth mentioning. Supporting both api would be the ideal solution, but that also mean twice the work whenever something graphic emerge, twice the low level api knowledge / debugging to do in case of weird hardware specific problems and then some. One day im sure it will happen, but its not in the short term future for sure. As for the patchbot, it run fine on wine under linux (so long as you dont open the detail pane in which case it start lagging but still work), unfortunately i do not personally own a mac, so i cannot test / debug the patchbot on one. |

The patchbot runs fine on Mac as well, just not when the client launches it. |

Yeah, confirming what Enk said on OSX 10.6. I've re-written the OSX install guide in a way that simplifies / works around this issue. viewtopic.php?f=3&t=57961 |
