**Mac users please aid me!** Feralheart crashing; unable to play.

[UnwiredEscape]

        Hello! So I am a Macbook pro user. The version of my computer is 10.10.15. I have downloaded Feralheart and have been playing and role-playing fine for around 3-4 months now. Only a week ago did I download the aug.22 mass markings, and the legendary items. Before installing those, my game worked perfectly fine, no glitches, shut downs, etc. Since downloading the game, everyday has been a progressive decline in the game working properly. I could usually be online for a good 1-2 hours, or however long I wished. Now, all I can do Is open the game, log in, and pick my character. Once it goes to my loading screen to enter the map which i was last in as that character, the game will freeze, and shut down itself. Another thing that happens, is that a small pop up window appears: "The program FeralHeart.exe has encountered a serious problem and needs to close. We are sorry for the inconvenience." I would like to try and fix this ASAP and I have tried shutting off my computer/restarting, checking for duplicates, and changing the rendering subsystem(There is only one option for this subsystem). I have also tried deleting my Feralheart and re downloading it, then re downloading the two packs that i previously stated. I will not delete them entirely from my game. Only as a last resort will I do that.
        Please if you can help me that would be fantastic!

This is my Mac help post: Hope it helps. Also, I really do think you should just play the game without the mass markings or items, or atlas just get rid of the markings.

Hello! You have probably come here to figure out to run (and continuously run) Feral Heart on a MAC!
I will be very active on updating this with all the FAQ's and solutions that I have for you, so be sure to check for updates and edits.
F.A.Q.'S


 -  "I installed the game yesterday and ran it through wine, which worked without any kinks. I installed several mods (but not an excessive amount), and ran the game for about an hour with no lag or any indications of trouble. However, after that first hour, the game crashed and I restarted. It crashed again about 15 minutes later, and again, and again. Eventually it wouldn't even run, so I reinstalled it and kept the mods down to just one Mass Marking pack. It crashed even then, and again wouldn't reopen.
I've reinstalled the game once more and left out all mods, but haven't played much to know if that solved the issue or not. I'm playing the game on an iMac, so the thought that it can't handle the mods because the computer "can't handle it" doesn't really seem to fit. Do you know any route I could take to fix this issue? I really don't want to give up playing, and have my mods as well if they're not the problem."



I would recommend NOT downloading ANY mods/item packs/Markings packs on your MAC if you wish to have Feral Heart run VERY smoothly without any lag or crashes. However, most of you do have these things, so I would recommend keeping it to a MINIMUM of two to three of any of these (total). If you download many packs etc, your game will crash and it will cause problems to your computer.
[color=sky blue]Hi Shay, thanks so much!! i have trouble loading the game. when the world Fluorite is loading u the first time it says bad token. i've tried reloading the game and reinstalling but nothing has worked for me...
Flourite tends to be full, and even people with out MACs may have trouble getting into it because it tends to be pretty full. But if you are having trouble getting into a world such as cape, or even lonely cave, it means you are most likely missing something in your download. I you have not downloaded WINE, do so. This should help.



"My problem is simple, FeralHeart won't load. Like at all.
I'm on a mac, and I know about the whole restart redownload .etc..
I have tried EVERYTHING and it still won't work. I have redownloaded it about 6 times. I have restarted my computer, oh god knows how many times. I have tried absolutely every tip, trick, and guide out there. I got maps to make, things I gotta return to. Feralheart just won't load.
I click it on it, the icon comes up, then it closes itself. Hoping I'm not the only one with this problem!"



Your computer is blocking it
Go to your system preferences, security and privacy, general, at the bottom there should be options that say: "allow apps downloaded from:
- Mac App store
- Mac App store and identified
- Anywhere"
Make sure "anywhere" is pressed so your mac knows that you can use FH


VERY IMPORTANT:
VERY IMPORTANT FOR ALL MAC USERS!
DO NOT place your Feral Heart folder or icon on your desktop or doc. Not sure why your mac will not allow you to play if it is visible, but you can't. Instead, create a folder on your desktop and place all feral heart related things in there as well as the main folder with the icon (actual game). Also, if you are constantly re-downloading the game, make sure that you are deleting the ones you have previously downloaded.
- PM for more questions and I will post them here-


Tips from other fellow members:
Daffy:
"if you want to play having mods, item packs, markings packs etc on your game then here's a little tip that I have found that works: keep the game in a small window, so the lag isn't as big. It hardly lags at all when I do that "
