OS X Patch Problems

Hello everyone. I picked up Dom2 awhile ago, played it with no problems on my PC. But, I just recently tried to instal it on my PowerBook G4. No problems with that, but I cannot get the 2.16 patch to work. My instal is 2.02, so it should work. Any suggestions?

I had the same problem, updating from 2.14

First make sure your old dominions2 application is not write protected (it is after copying from the CD).

Yeah. You have to change the persmissions. Do a ctrl-I for info and then modify the permissions to that you can read and right the Dominions file.

Oh... by the way, on a Mac, in window mode, I found that the game's vertical mouse placement was reversed. When the mouse cursor was near the bottom of the screen, things near the top would get selected/highlighted (if you could get it just right) and vice versa.

So, it was impossible to play in window mode. Hopefully, that will not be the case with Dom3.

Dom 2 works fine in full screen mode.

Pasha, I think that's fixed if you download a newer version of SDL...
