Since Phil mentioned he was having trouble with file permissions. I decided to try running CM with my admin account to see if the behavior was any different. However, when trying to launch with my admin account, I only got a blank screen and could not progress to the main menu. So I tried a finder copy of the CM folder to the admin account's home directory. That copy launched fine and infantry rendered also. The next step I did was to go back to my regular user account and do a finder copy to my home directory. That copy worked fine, so I finder copied that back to the Applications folder and now everything is working normally. So there still seems to be some permission issues with the update possibly related to users that don't run the admin account by default.

I'm having the same issue after the B patch. I tried a fresh install and then the B patch also, but still inf do not render, just their weapons and some helmets. This is my sys info: Processor 2.66 GHz Quad-Core Intel Xeon Memory 8 GB 1066 MHz DDR3 ECC Graphics ATI Radeon HD 4870 512 MB Software Mac OS X Lion 10.7.1 (11B26)

From a previous response, it looks like they tested the game for Lion, but forgot to test for the case where someone installed under 10.6 and then upgraded to 10.7. So it may work for first time installs under 10.7.

They also mentioned that their DRM is provided by a third party, which is also working on a Mac specific fix. I guess none of these issues came up during the long Lion beta phase, or nobody bothered to check...

After applying the patch, it's no longer asking for an activation, it's just crashing outright. I only have one copy of the app on this machine and it's in the standard /Applications folder Process: CMBN [751] Path: /Applications/CM Battle for Normandy/CM Battle for Normandy.app/Contents/MacOS/CMBN Identifier: com.battlefront.CMBN Version: 1.01 (1.01) Code Type: X86-64 (Native) Parent Process: launchd [233] Date/Time: 2011-07-23 11:12:09.479 +0900 OS Version: Mac OS X 10.7 (11A511) Report Version: 9 Interval Since Last Report: 34020 sec Crashes Since Last Report: 6 Per-App Crashes Since Last Report: 2 Anonymous UUID: 07E5CF36-D3B4-47F0-86EB-D6CFE96BED51 Crashed Thread: 0 Dispatch queue: com.apple.main-thread Exception Type: EXC_CRASH (SIGABRT) Exception Codes: 0x0000000000000000, 0x0000000000000000 Application Specific Information: objc[751]: garbage collection is OFF terminate called throwing an exception abort() called Thread 0 Crashed:: Dispatch queue: com.apple.main-thread 0 libsystem_kernel.dylib 0x00007fff8d255ce2 __pthread_kill + 10 1 libsystem_c.dylib 0x00007fff8c3817d2 pthread_kill + 95 2 libsystem_c.dylib 0x00007fff8c372a7a abort + 143 3 libc++abi.dylib 0x00007fff92fd97bc abort_message + 214 4 libc++abi.dylib 0x00007fff92fd6fcf default_terminate() + 28 5 libobjc.A.dylib 0x00007fff948751cd _objc_terminate + 114 6 libc++abi.dylib 0x00007fff92fd7001 safe_handler_caller(void (*)()) + 11 7 libc++abi.dylib 0x00007fff92fd705c std::terminate() + 16 8 libc++abi.dylib 0x00007fff92fd8152 __cxa_throw + 114 9 CMBN.ldr 0x0000000100703f37 xp::file_map::file_map(char const*) + 583 10 CMBN.ldr 0x00000001007177e4 xp::coder::file_info::isOk() + 212 11 CMBN.ldr 0x0000000100717dab xp::coder::Impl_Integrity::isAllOk() + 43 12 tmp.0.xLP3W7 0x0000000101b7441a gs::core::_detail::Monitor::onEvent(xp::TEventObj<0, xp::IApplication, xp::TRefObj<xp::IRefObj> >*) + 410 13 CMBN.ldr 0x00000001006c7ecf xp::TMultiListener<xp::IEventListener<xp::TEventObj<0, xp::IApplication, xp::TRefObj<xp::IRefObj> > > >::onEvent(xp::TEventObj<0, xp::IApplication, xp::TRefObj<xp::IRefObj> >*) + 79 14 CMBN.ldr 0x00000001006c526c iw::enter() + 428 15 CMBN.ldr 0x000000010074c9c5 0x1006bf000 + 580037 16 dyld 0x00007fff6f90cd1a ImageLoaderMachO::doModInitFunctions(ImageLoader::LinkContext const&) + 218 17 dyld 0x00007fff6f90ca66 ImageLoaderMachO::doInitialization(ImageLoader::LinkContext const&) + 46 18 dyld 0x00007fff6f90a258 ImageLoader::recursiveInitialization(ImageLoader::LinkContext const&, unsigned int, ImageLoader::InitializerTimingList&) + 260 19 dyld 0x00007fff6f90a1f1 ImageLoader::recursiveInitialization(ImageLoader::LinkContext const&, unsigned int, ImageLoader::InitializerTimingList&) + 157 20 dyld 0x00007fff6f90b02b ImageLoader::runInitializers(ImageLoader::LinkContext const&, ImageLoader::InitializerTimingList&) + 59 21 dyld 0x00007fff6f9004ad dyld::initializeMainExecutable() + 206 22 dyld 0x00007fff6f904580 dyld::_main(macho_header const*, unsigned long, int, char const**, char const**, char const**) + 1852 23 dyld 0x00007fff6f8fe059 _dyld_start + 49

I contacted support. Apparently the OS upgrade is triggering the license manager to think you're using the game on a different machine than it was activated for. Support provided a script to wipe the old activation, but this means you have to use up another one of your allowed activations to get things going again.

Upon launch, a window with the following message is displayed: Error Detected Unable to load the license for this application. Please contact your vendor for assistance. The game will not proceed to load.
