TGB on a Mac ?

by Bruno · in Torque Game Builder · 02/09/2010 (2:40 pm) · 9 replies

Hi,

I don't know if anyone had this problem before.
When i run a TGB game in my Mac,the game launches fine, however i keep having a black window behind my game window. It's like TGB is launching 2 windows instead of one, 1 with the game, and another that has no purpose and it's completely black. I can even close it without any problems.
How can i get rid of this window ?

thanks,
Bruno

Does the second window close if you close the main game window?

I've seen it with iTGB and quite a few people complain about it.

If I remember correctly, it's an artifact from TGB attempting to change screen resolution; but I'm not aware of any fix for it.

I've seen people mention it, but I've not seen it on my intel or PPC macs.

I've seen it, but it's not happening currently. I remember some people posted potential fixes, but they caused other problems/didn't change anything, I think. Anyone up for replacing the windowing code with some more modern Cocoa? :)

Just posting to confirm that it still happens on a fresh TGB install.
