FeralHeart not working on latest OS Mountain Lion update...
« on: October 02, 2012, 08:30:17 pm »
Dunno if any other Mac people had sufficient bad judgement to install the latest Mountain Lion update, but, much like everything else, FeralHeart doesn't work at all since I got it. It won't even open, it just starts up, shows the little terminal window, and does absolutely nothing else until I force quit it.

I've tried this with both the latest version of FH (which was always a little glitchy for me) and the previous (which worked fine until now), and both do the same thing. I know most of you are Windows users, but any help would be greatly appreciated; I can't even texture mod right now.

I don't use mac, but i heard users saying that closing "wineskinX11" allows it to work.

Thanks for the quick response! Unfortunately, I checked and found that wineskinX11 wasn't open... I'm currently attempting to just leave the thing alone for a while and see if it's genuinely frozen or just really, really slow.

Actually i don't know many people who can play with Mountain Lion, I even asked to Razmirz.
possible solutions:
Downgrade to snow leopard
Make a disk partition with windows (the hard way but will run the game smoothly) :P
emulate windows with a virtual machine.

im not sure if wine (used in linux) is the same emulator than wineskin

Thanks for the help, I'll most likely end up doing one of those things.

OS X 10.8.2 update has broken some apps. No backwards compatibility, you know. Enjoy your Mac :) http://wineskin.urgesoftware.com/tiki-view_blog_post.php?postId=61

There is an updated version of Wineskin. You can use it to create a new wrapper for FH.

If you figure how to make FH to work, please do a tutorial about ;)

Manual is here: http://wineskin.urgesoftware.com/tiki-index.php?page=Manual

I don't feel I can make a tutorial myself. I prefer to work with terminal, but most Mac users work with GUI.
