Marble Blast Gold freezes MAC

#1 Something wrong with the MAC or the game. im on a mac and it works like a charm.

#2 Me too...

try reinstalling MBG if you have the disk.

#3 Works for me on a mac...

#4 I've already tried re-installing the game.

I also reinstalled my entire operating system, it would work OK, but then stopped after the latest OS software update.

I'm looking to see if there is some update or patch to make the game work again.

The console log says there are files missing, even though the program was just installed.

#5 What files does it say?

Also, what OS and version of MBG are you on?

#6 I have OS 10 .4.6 I'm trying to use MBG 1.5.4

Here is the console log:

#7 Very odd indeed. I have the exact same OS and MBG version, and I don't have any of those "missing" files, either.

I'm at my wit's end. Sorry :(

#8 Input Init:
Basic mouse capture failed to enable!

Ummm..?

#9 Oh! didn't see that... But even before, where it says failed to find maccmdline.txt? There's no such file in my computer.

#10 Some files are said to be missing but in fact no one has them. Perhaps different version of marble blast or other things of it have been deleted. Had you ever taken a look in prefs.cs you'll find that you should have multiplayer in MBG, but it was never done.

#11 I have the EXACT same OS and version of MBG, and I don't have any of those files...

#12 But does it work on anybody's computer with all of Apple's latest updates installed?

#13 Mine.
