Weird Worlds Mac OS X patch for testing

It seems there's something wrong with how this version handles the game.cfg file. Ed's looking into it.

Looking at the patch files (I don't have a Mac), the Ravian files are definitely there and game.ini seems correct so they should show up occasionally (About once per 15 games). Make sure you don't have the tutorial mode on as it disables main quests.

Cool. Thanks for the update, Fingers. I'll keep playing, and eventually I'll get my hands on those sneaky Ravians.

Pleased to announce I finally encountered Ravians. I'd say I was victorious, but really it was the Klakar that did all the work - they rammed three Ravian ships in a row.

So, as I posted in another thread yesterday, the Patch has completely stopped working on my mac. It crashes everytime I try to run the game. I've tried closing everything else could possibly have used memory, restarting, even reinstalling.

The only thing that got the game working again was to use my backuped archive of the original download zip of the main game, and then NOT installing the Patch. Once I patch a new unzipped version, it stops working.

Very odd...

Sgqwonkian, could you send me your crash logs for Weird Worlds? You will find them in:

in your home folder's Library/Logs/CrashReporter/ subfolder, and they will be all together in one file called ww.crash.log

Hopefully that will give me the info needed to track this down -- It's clear there is something going on with game.cfg files, but I haven't been able to reproduce it since I first verified it was happening.

Here it is.
