MACOS : "MegaGlest cannot be opened because of a problem."

[Walkman100]

Looking quickly through it, it seems there's a missing file, under Dyld Error Message: it says Library not loaded: /opt/local/lib/libSDL-1.2.0.dylib
Seems you don't have a system library?
Could you check to see whether that file /opt/local/lib/libSDL-1.2.0.dylib actually exists?
Edit: That seems wrong, I'm pretty sure Macs don't use /opt/, I thought only Linux used that directory system...

To me it looked as if the Resources folder was in the wrong spot. I tried moving the Resources folder to the MACOS folder and the game didn't even start. So I downloaded it again and still the same error.

Here is a picture of the contents folder just to make sure everything is where is should be.

One last picture of the Resources folder.

Hopefully this helped some. I'm trying to get this game to work because some friends and I are playing it at a LAN party tonight. Thank you.

Well you could probably use an old version, I'm guessing that since it's trying to access /opt/ which is used on Linux and not a Mac, there's something wrong with this build.

[skrytyy]

Where do I get the old version?

[Walkman100]

From the releases page

It seems the only other release with a Mac OS download is v3.9.0

[skrytyy]

Will it work with other versions?

[alketii]

Try 3.9.1, its a bit old, but i think mac version works there.

I don't know, you will probably have to get everyone else to get the same version.

Try 3.9.1, its a bit old, but i think mac version works there.

There is no Mac download for 3.9.1.

[skrytyy]

I think it's the last version I had.

[alketii]

Sorry it was 3.9.0 which is comparabile with 3.9.1

Thanks!

Okay, Walkman. I have tried the two downloads that you sent me. MegaGlest-game-macos-3.11.1.b1.dmg came up with the same error.

After that was unsuccessful I tried the second download. MegaGlest-game-macos-3.11.1.b1.zip also came up with the same error.

Sorry for the wait btw. I have been meaning to get this feedback to you. I really enjoy this game and am willing to help get it running on my laptop. Thank you.

Please also keep an eye on this forum thread discussing what is likely the same issue:
https://forum.megaglest.org/index.php?topic=9708.0
There's not currently a complete solution available but you could give ONE of these a try, if you wanted (likely won't work, though):

https://github.com/MegaGlest/megaglest-source/releases/download/3.11.1/MegaGlest-game-macos-3.11.1.b2.dmg
https://github.com/MegaGlest/megaglest-source/releases/download/3.11.1/MegaGlest-game-macos-3.11.1.b2.zip

Please try next build (choose one link) and give to us some feedback:

MegaGlest-game-macos-3.11.1.b3.dmg

MegaGlest-game-macos-3.11.1.b3.zip

[tomreyn]

This one has been reported to work by another OS X user.

It'd be very helpful to have another test result, skrytyy.

[skrytyy]

The .zip download works for me. Thank you so much!

[skrytyy]

The .dmg download didn't work.

[filux]

I bet it was link from the email. During creating message link for .dmg was bugged, and fixed just few seconds later, but email was sent after "create" and nothing after "edit".

[skrytyy]

It was. Thank you so much!

[tomreyn]

Should we close this bug report then? The bug initially reported appears to be fixed?

[skrytyy]

Yes. Thank all of you for the help!
