Tenderfoot Thahd mathwhiz90601 Posted December 5, 2006 Share Posted December 5, 2006 First off, I have Mac OS 9 , which is probably my problem. Now, my problem: The genforge.demo.dmg file downloads, but it cannot open. It also cannot open with Stuffit Expander. Any ideas? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Understated Ur-Drakon Tyranicus Posted December 5, 2006 Share Posted December 5, 2006 If you're using OS 9, I'm fairly certain that it is your problem. Geneforge 4 requires OS X. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tenderfoot Thahd mathwhiz90601 Posted December 5, 2006 Author Share Posted December 5, 2006 NOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! It requires mac os x. That is the last straw!!!! I CAN'T TAKE IT ANY MORE!!!!! Spiderweb was the last hold out of game developers that supported my computer, but they have ABANDONED me!!! waaaaaaaaaaa!!!!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hatchling Cockatrice Lilith Posted December 5, 2006 Share Posted December 5, 2006 Dude, it's time to upgrade. Mac OS 9 was only ever designed as a bridge to OS X in the first place. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tenderfoot Thahd mathwhiz90601 Posted December 6, 2006 Author Share Posted December 6, 2006 Current computer can't hold it. 350 mhz G3 processor,6gb hard drive (full), 576mb RAM (recently upgraded with a 512mb chip). It's one of the first iMacs around. At least I'm planning on getting a new iMac in March when Leopard comes out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hatchling Cockatrice Randomizer Posted December 6, 2006 Share Posted December 6, 2006 I don't think Jeff even beta tested OS 9. Still you can always email him to check. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Well-Actually War Trall Spidweb Posted December 6, 2006 Share Posted December 6, 2006 It was a tough choice to make OS X required, but using the old, outdated system calls to maintain the compatability was starting to hurt the game. So, in the end, I didn't have a choice. :-( - Jeff Vogel Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tenderfoot Thahd mathwhiz90601 Posted December 6, 2006 Author Share Posted December 6, 2006 Good thing I will be getting a new computer in three or four months. Everything about this one is breaking. It crashes at least once an hour now. Wow, I've been graced by the presence of Jeff Vogel himself! Cool! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
