Sorry to post off topic, but...

I can't get a straight answer anywhere. Why is the Mac version of this game not working? and more importantly, why is the development team on vacation without it being fixed?

Every time the game fires up, it goes to a black screen. I know this has been brought up, but Marc and Markus have done very little to address it.

Anyone?

It looks to me as though this problem is getting swept under the rug.

I would hold off until next week when i think some people are back.

My Mac version works fine and has since the free (1.01) demo.

I seem to remember reading that there is a problem with the upgrader for mac, to upgrade the game you need to unistall it and do a clean install. it is a pretty interesting company where everyone gets to go on vacation at once.

I just downloaded the upgrades and followed the step-by-step instructions. (I have to; I'm a computer illiterate.)

I'm sorry it has taken me so long to respond to this thread.

PSU, I'm not quite sure what it is that you're running into. There have been a number of Mac users who had trouble with applying the patches, but to my knowledge we have successfully resolved these issues by having the Mac users reinstall the product for scratch.

Are you still unable to play the game?

Please let me know; we'd like to make sure this gets addressed.

Thanks,

Steve

We have a rule that states that Tech Support threads wherein we have not received a response within 7 days will be closed.

This one meets this criteria, so I'm closing this.

If you want to discuss it again, just PM me with the thread link, and I'll re-open. (Don't just say "Hey, reopen my thread." I need to know the URL, thanks!)
