TGB Installer problem on Mac
by Oszkar Nagy · in Torque Game Builder · 03/19/2007 (9:09 am) · 4 replies
Hi!
I would like to download th TGB demo to evaluate for a project, but I couldn't get up and running:
When I click on the Commercial TGB for Mac download link I get an empty page with File not found error on the top.
I downloaded the Indie version of TGB Demo for Mac but I couldn't install as it has the following problem:
The Installer downloads the updated TGB from from Garagegames site, but when the download is finished the app quits and nothing happens.
I tried this on 2 Macs with the same results.
Tried on Intel iMac running 10.4.9 and PPC G5 running 10.4.8.
I also would like to know if there is any way to record sound within TGB or if I could execute an external program which does this (or maybe incorporate other audio library into TGB)
Any help would be appreciated on these.

- open Terminal
- change to the bitrock directory: cd .bitrock/updates/
- there will be a file named update[some numbers].tgz
- unzip the file: unzip update[some numbers].tgz
- this will create TorqueGameBuilder_113.app
- move the app to your home directory: mv TorqueGameBuilder_113.app ~
- remove the .bitrock dir: cd ~; rm -rf .bitrock
- now from the Finder you can go to your home directory and run TorqueGameBuilder_113.app
- say 'No' when it asks about checking for updates

But again, this method works exactly as shown.
Thanks.

That worked, Andy, thanks. If anyone else temporarily needs the installer available with this, I could post it in a ZIP form to one of my servers for members to download to avoid this.But again, this method works exactly as shown.
Thanks.
