Mac OSX demo wont launch! Help

[Joe Mannino]

I had downloaded the demo and it worked fine. I just received the game, installed it and double clicked. It let me create a god, but when I try to create a game, the program quits. No error message, nothing traumatic, it just fades out, same as the quit command did from the demo. Same thing happens when I try to play from the CD. I can see the demo games I saved, but the applications quits as well when I try to open them (I didn't expect to be able to play them, but as they were there I tried).

Also, I downloaded the patch, and that will not work either- it return with: Some files you tried to patch are locked or missing. Patch not applied.

I checked and the application is not locked. I've reloaded SDL and copied the application over twice each, and even restarted after the second time with no change in results.

I'm running 10.3.3 on a G4. Any suggestions?

Thanks,
Joe
