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.

Command-i on the main app file. Under "Ownership and Permissions," it will be marked Read only . Change this to Read and Write . Worked for me. Be sure to change it back after patching-- you wouldn't want to accidentally scramble some other file afterward

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.

I you start dominions from a terminal window and with the -d switch (for debug) you will see some text as well as an error message when the game quits.

Changing the info to read and write worked perfect- it even lets me play the demo games.

Thanks!
