Fledgling Fyora dhiser Posted July 18, 2013 Share Posted July 18, 2013 I just bought the complete set of SpiderWeb games and I can not get Avernum 1-3, The First Trilogy, to install or run. I was not expecting it to work in Mountain Lion OS X, but I thought it should work from Snow Leopard, since I run PPC code from this boot partition. But when I attempt to run the installer it says that it classic environment is no longer supported on this platform. When I did an "info" on the application it says that it is a classic application. So I booted up OS 9 in SheepShaver and it says here that the application needed to run this application was not available. My OS 9 installation is very minimal, but I was not expecting to need OS 9, since I thought this application was PPC. Everything I have read implies this should run from Rosetta on Snow Leopard. Can someone tell me if they got the Avernum 1 game to install and run from their Humble Bundle? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hatchling Cockatrice Alorael at Large Posted July 18, 2013 Share Posted July 18, 2013 Fortunately the problem has been solved! Check out this thread and the downloads it contains. —Alorael, who supposes the bundle should be more accurate. It only says that Lion and later aren't supported.

Fledgling Fyora dhiser Posted July 18, 2013 Author Share Posted July 18, 2013 Alorael, Thanks for your response. This wineskin version looks to be a Demo copy and has DRM. The version I purchased from the HumbleBundle is suppose to be DRM free. For instance, I installed Blades of Avernum and it says it is already registered. If I copy it to another place, it reverts to being Demo. So the registration code is included in the installer in this case. So without the registration codes for The First Avernum Trilogy, I don't think wineskin will work. ...Doug Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hatchling Cockatrice Lilith Posted July 19, 2013 Share Posted July 19, 2013 Email Spiderweb Software: they're pretty good at customer service. Since you've already purchased the game, they should be happy to hook you up with the registration codes you need to get it working. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fledgling Fyora dhiser Posted July 26, 2013 Author Share Posted July 26, 2013 Problem resolved. I e-mailed Spiderweb Support and they supplied links to three new installers that works under Rosette on Snow Leopard. Wonderful. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
