You have to change directory to wherever dominions is located first.

e.g. cd ~/Desktop

..if you put it on your desktop

pdonley has already tested installing SDL, but that didn't help and it shouldn't be required to do that either. Remeber, the terminal is your friend. Now put Dominions3.app on your desktop and write these commands in your terminal!!!

cd ~/Desktop
Dominions3.app/Contents/MacOS/Dominions3 -dd

Ok Johan,

I did as you said in the last post, a new window opened with the title "Dominons3.app/Contents/MacOS/Dominions3-dd" with the same bash-2.05a$ prompt.

Sorry, Terminal noob.

Ok, I don't get why it should do that. BTW, are you using powerpc or intel machines?

pdonley · #6 October 6th, 2006, 08:33 PM

I'm using a powerpc G4.

Ok, just to make sure I'm doing this right...

I have been using the "New Command..." command to enter in
these commands, right. Otherwise all I get is command not found message.

Nope, you should be using the teminal or shell or whatever that application is called. Do a "ls" (lists all files) too so you can see if Dominions3.app is in the same directory as you.
