vke Posted September 20, 2009 Share Posted September 20, 2009 (edited) Good choice in computers, although not really the best for gaming. If you have any troubles with you mac, post them here. I'll help you out! I'll add more to this when i encounter more problems. Common Problems Incorrect ET version? Download ET 2.60c, the the 2.60d patches availiable from www.wolfmap.de Can't save your config as .cfg with text edit? Download TextWrangler, a freeware text/html editor. PB doesn't start. Getting kicked for PB INIT FAILURE, PB heartbeats stopped Download the PB client from www.evenbalance.com, and install it in the Mac HD/users/your username/library/application support/Wolfenstein ET Cannot play on EtPRo with the 2.60d patch? Easy. just download the 2.60b version, and don't patch it. ETPro hasn't been updated to allow the new patch. Make 2 separate installs, by changing the default install location of the new version. PB GUID AUTH UNKN This is a tough cookie. So far, the only surefire thing that works for me is to start ET, load the mod i want to play(jaymod/NQ/ETpro) and type the following: /pb_cdkeyreg /pb_Cdkeyver /pb_cdkeyverauto 1 /pb_writecfg The guid auth applies to windows/linux if your having the same problems too.

vke Posted November 15, 2009 Author Share Posted November 15, 2009 i have linux too Its more of a pain to set up than mac. Took me 3 days of nonstop googling to set up ubuntu, so i switched to redhat, that pissed me off so now im runnin a convoluted arch linux with some code my dad made. With mac its mostly a matter of getting the correct versions of stuff. ET loves mac, but PB doesn't :/ I save all my demo's to another HD so i can import them to Final Cut Pro. Mac vid editing is cake compared to windows Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Administrators daredevil Posted December 27, 2009 Administrators Share Posted December 27, 2009 2.60c Can you try to install 2.60d patch? http://www.wolfmap.de/comments.php?news_id=698 And see if it works for you. Does MAC supports team viewer? If yes set up remote desktop so I can see what's the issue. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

allmanbrother Posted June 18, 2010 Share Posted June 18, 2010 My only complaint about ET on my Mac Pro which I love dearly is that I can never find screenshots/demos so I end up having to take them using built-in or downloaded software.

Apart from the fact that this thread is more than half a year old, you could take screenshots with OS X's inbuilt tool by pressing Cmd+Shift+3. It will save them automatically to your desktop.

Brisk Posted June 28, 2010 Share Posted June 28, 2010 Can't save your config as .cfg with text edit? Download TextWrangler, a freeware text/html editor. TextEdit, by default, edits in RTF (Rich Text Format). If you want to use it for a .cfg file, you need to switch it over to a plain-text mode with Command-shift-t. It'll pop up a warning saying you'll loose your formatting, but you don't use formatting for configs anyway. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gubbi Posted June 24, 2011 Share Posted June 24, 2011 My only complaint about ET on my Mac Pro which I love dearly is that I can never find screenshots/demos so I end up having to take them using built-in or downloaded software. Sorry for late answer but try to find them in /Users/xxx/Library/Application Support Wolfenstein ET/jaymod/screenshots/ condumps, demos and you cfg are also saved in this jaymod folder.
