does someone has a answer on this pls?

edit:

mac stuff:
Intel Core 2 Duo
2.2 GHz
graphics: GMA X3100 144 MB

don't know where to look which version i play

if you have downloaded it from nexuiz.com it should be 2.4.2 (correct me if i'm wrong)

press the "Apply immediately" button at the bottom after you changed the settings and try again

Apparently the game crashes on exit. Might be fixed in latest svn.

Anyway, try this:

Open the console
and type "saveconfig"

That should save your current config reliably.
1. Open Notepad
2. Paste: ÿþMSMSMS
3. Save
4. Open the file in Notepad again

You can vary the number of "MS", so you can clearly see it's MS which is causing it.

Do this on a Terminal.app to repair it:

sudo chown -R yourusername ~/.nexuiz
chmod a=rX,u+w ~/.nexuiz

Then try again.
1. Open Notepad
2. Paste: ÿþMSMSMS
3. Save
4. Open the file in Notepad again

You can vary the number of "MS", so you can clearly see it's MS which is causing it.

@ Alien

ok the map Nexuiz is stored in Applications.
user/pietervdh/applications/nexuiz

@ divVerent

i'm not that good with code stuff.
anyway, i opened the app Terminal copied you text. this is what is says:

pietervdh:~ pietervdh$ sudo chown -R pietervdh ~/.nexuiz
chown: /Users/pietervdh/.nexuiz: No such file or directory
pietervdh:~ pietervdh$ /Users/pietervdh/Applications/Nexuiz
-bash: /Users/pietervdh/Applications/Nexuiz: No such file or directory
