Of course. If anyone is interested I would be willing to allow it to happen. If I get another intel osx box I'll make that one much more available.

This is my main machine. Admin access won't happen.

Hey folks. In the interest of getting OS X Spring and Springlobby working I am offering the use of a MacBook running 10.6.6. I will allow ssh and VNC access to a non-admin account on the system. Any tools that require sudo or adminship to install I will do upon request. VNC would be available overni...

I loaded the tank game and the maps. Tried to launch and got an error:

Setup-script does not exist in given location: "/Users/bstone/.spring/script.txt"

Sound is working on BA.

I wonder how good the single player mode of BA is. I'd love to battle against the computer player with skill.

Did place the XTA in the same folder. Unsure why it never worked. Will try your tank game.

Balanced Annhilation completely works. There doesn't seem to be any sound (or music) but the app works and I can build units....and it's just like TA was!!!

you could try some other games such as http://springfiles.com/spring/games/balanced-annihilation-20 see if they shows up... Or maybe its something strange as that Mac OS X does not like the capital file names? Try renaming to xtapev96.sdz The .sdz are just .zip files renamed to .sdz So you could un...

What should I do with this .sdz? place in mods folder next to the zk.sdd (.sdz are "packed" games, .sdd are kind of the "development version" of games, thats why you can see the files inside) Strange that it doesnt show up. :? You did already restart spring i guess? Sorry, I mea...

I put XTAPEV96.sdz into the mods folder, but the game doesn't appear when in Spring. zk.sdd is a folder that I can go into and see lots of files. What should I do with this .sdz?

BTW, here is the pastebin: http://pastebin.com/yWaAbQm3

That is the *entire* infolog.txt file. I just confirmed it. I've now tried three maps. The moment that the first unit is put on the screen (and I hear a mechanical type sound) the game freezes. I have to hit Command-Option-ESC in order to kill it. At least killing it works flawlessly. I will try the...

I've downloaded two maps now. In each of them the moment that the game begins it freezes/kicks me out. I don't even have my hands on the keyboard when this happens. Is this a map issue?

And now it's freezing. I get get into the map and for a second or two I can move the mouse, but then it freezes where I can no longer move the mouse. The last terminal output says: [f=0000000] -> Version: 0.82.7.1 [f=0000000] -> Connection established (given id 0) [f=0000000] Player bezeqboy finishe...

Well, that seems to have done it. I added a map and selected it and was able to load the game. I didn't stick around to try to play it, but will try and update later.

This has been a LOT more intensive than I ever thought.

Ok, ZK now shows up where I select a game. There is nothing for selecting a map. Skirmish has a few choices. When I click test game it brings up X11 which then complains I haven't selected a map. :?: :?: :?: /Users/bstone/.spring/mods I'm not sure if ZK includes any maps... on the off chance it doe...

Run it from a terminal. It returns the info on it, too. This is what I got when I just opened a fresh terminal: bstone$ spring using default configuration source "/Users/bstone/.springrc" [CMyMath::Init] CPU SSE mask: 126, flags: SSE 1.0: 1, SSE 2.0: 1 SSE 3.0: 1, SSSE 3.0: 1 SSE 4.1: 1, ...
