NetRadiant doesn't work @ Mac OSX Snow Leopard

[Kay]

Hi, i just bought Snow Leopard, and if I open Net Radiant now it doesn't start, it directly disappears out of dock when i open it.


what do i need to do?

PS: on the normal Mac OSX it worked perfect!

• Download http://www.icculus.org/netradiant/files ... xintel.zip
• extract the zip
• open it so that you can see the app's content, search for the file
  

  Code: Select all

  libxml2.2.dylib

  
  located in
  

  Code: Select all

  Contents/MacOS/install

  
  and delete it.

Thats all, now it should run flawlessly.

I am trying to keep this page update for OSX Snow Leopard, http://code.google.com/p/osxnetradiant/
but I am very busy at the moment.

Ahh, thank you

NO no, i did that and now if i open it X11 opens and i see the box where the net radiant logo should be, but then it disappears again O___o

Well that works for me, but I have not a 'clean' environment.. having MacPorts installed and other things..

Can you try to start it by command line, to see what kind of errors you get?
(open terminal, and start it from there.. should hopefully give some info..)

That file is located there.. maybe you delete, more then only the file libxml2.2.dylib ?
Else if the file is indeed located there, and you did not remove it, then I don't know what the error is.

I tried again and it's still not working

[ailmanki]

Well, I do not know why it does not work for you..

But there is still some hope,
you can try to compile it with macports and my changes: http://code.google.com/p/osxnetradiant/

yet as already the first fix I suggested does not work, I can't tell if compiling it will work, but maybe installing MacPorts and making that environment ready for netradiant, fixes the problem you have with libiconv..

[Kay]

But it's the same as i did before, or what do you mean with macports?
