TallyHo Posted March 23, 2006 Share Posted March 23, 2006 Since updating earlier today, My icon starts to bounce in the dock, then it just quits out with even an error message. I downloaded and re-updated, and same thing. ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Netherby Posted March 23, 2006 Share Posted March 23, 2006 No problems here.. OSX 10.4.5 [ March 23, 2006, 02:55 AM: Message edited by: Netherby ] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Abidubi Posted March 23, 2006 Share Posted March 23, 2006 None here either. Actually more stable. You might need to repair permisions or something. Maybe look for all files associated to drop team (like the .plist if there is one) and trash'em incase they somehow got corrupted. Otherwise I have no idea why your getting that problem.

Netherby Posted March 23, 2006 Share Posted March 23, 2006 I saw some OpenAL files get downloaded with the update... Not sure if they were there before, you could try deleting them so it loads the system ones instead, but of course that could also make the game not work.. But it can't hurt to try if the game isn't working anyway... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ClaytoniousRex Posted March 23, 2006 Share Posted March 23, 2006 Tally, send us your Dropteam.log and we will try to see what's happening. What version of OS X are you on? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Netherby Posted March 23, 2006 Share Posted March 23, 2006 I would just like to say I'm really happy with the patch, not a single crash since I updated Well not yet *touch wood* Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
weasello Posted March 23, 2006 Share Posted March 23, 2006 I'd really like this bug fixed so I can continue blowing up TallyHo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TallyHo Posted March 23, 2006 Author Share Posted March 23, 2006 10.4.5 Actually. I don't even have a crash log. There is not one in my apps folder. The icon just flickers and then disappears. hrm. I remember another game updating its graphics files and then doing something like this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Abidubi Posted March 23, 2006 Share Posted March 23, 2006 uhhhh... just a thought. Where was the update application when you ran it? Was it in our dropteam folder? You have to have those little files in the same place as the application you click on to launch. By default it doesn't have a folder, so I made one for it. You should have 7 items total exculing the pdf. (if your update application is in there too) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TallyHo Posted March 23, 2006 Author Share Posted March 23, 2006 no dice. the new install , all in one folder, loads fine. then I update but the result is the same. bouncing icon, no icon. no crash log is generated.

TallyHo Posted March 24, 2006 Author Share Posted March 24, 2006 I'm still not cooking. The old version is fine, so I'm rolling with that till all the other downloaders figure out the update trick and it's just moi and my stiff bot friends. alas.

ClaytoniousRex Posted March 25, 2006 Share Posted March 25, 2006 If you're willing to follow this procedure, Tally, then it will identify the problem: Open Terminal and do this: </font><blockquote>code:</font><hr /><pre style="font-size:x-small; font-family: monospace;">cd /Applications DropTeam.app/Contents/MacOS/DropTeam > TallyHo.txt</pre> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TallyHo Posted March 25, 2006 Author Share Posted March 25, 2006 Thanks for the time, clayton. The problem looks obvious, but the remedy I dunno. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ClaytoniousRex Posted March 25, 2006 Share Posted March 25, 2006 OpenAL is not installed on your system which is odd since it's now a core part of Tiger. First, go look in /System/Library/Frameworks and make sure that OpenAL.framework is indeed missing. If it is actually there then post again and we'll see why you can't access it. If it's not there, and assuming you have root access, you can manually install the one included with DropTeam by doing this (I'm assuming from your earlier post that you're installed at /Applications/DropTeam instead of the normal /Applications): </font><blockquote>code:</font><hr /><pre style="font-size:x-small; font-family: monospace;">cd /Applications/DropTeam sudo cp -r DropTeam.app/Contents/Frameworks/OpenAL.framework /System/Library/Frameworks/</pre> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
