Title: Mac Version Won't Launch
Post by: archaeaologist on April 24, 2013, 09:18

The game does not launch no matter what I try to do.  When I try to launch it from the disk image directly, the crash report says this:

Exception Type:  EXC_BAD_ACCESS (SIGSEGV)
Exception Codes: KERN_PROTECTION_FAILURE at 0x00007fff5f3ffe30
Crashed Thread:  0

There's a much longer crash log, of course, but it's very long.  When I try to launch it from applications, I get a different error altogether:

Error level : FATAL EXCEPTION
Message     : Fatal exception encountered

An unhandled exception occurred at $00000001000ABE12 :
EAccessViolation : Access violation
  $00000001000ABE12
  $00000001000AC026
  $0000000100061ECD
  $00000001001927FC
  $000000010005912F

Has anyone else encountered this problem?  If so, do you know how to fix it?  Thank you very much.

I also get the exact same launch error, I'm on OSX 10.5.8 here, all necessary SDL frameworks installed.

"launch it from the disk image directly"

Wait, what? Why would you launch from the disk image directly? I don't know any program that would reasonably allow that.

Apart from that I have way too little info - I need the OS, the model of the computer, it's installed GFX card and system language.

You'd be surprised at how many do allow it.  It was a last ditch attempt, regardless, so that I could reasonably state that I tried everything.

To answer your questions:
The model of the computer is a MacBook "Core 2 Duo" 2.1
The OS is MacOSX 10.5.8
The installed video chip is GMA 950
The System Language is most likely Objective C

I hope that answers your questions; please let me know if you have anymore.  I also included the full error log (I think.  If not, I need to know what it looks like), so hopefully that will be enough to let you know what's going on.

Thanks for looking into it.
