Hi!

I'm losing. 
I downloaded 1.0.1 and did the client and font installs. 
But when I click on the app, very little happens; a little disk activity,
then nothing. No icon ever shows on the dock, no windows, no error
messages. I tried rebooting the machine.

The machine is a G3 ibook running OS X Panther (10.3.9).

What do I try next?

  --andy
(also, when I mounted the .dmg, the finder window with the package
files in it opened halfway off the right side of the screen; I have no
idea if window position comes from the package or if it was just the
finder doing something random...)

Open Console.app and see if there's a crashlog.

OK, it says:

dyld: /Applications/MacTrek.app/Contents/MacOS/MacTrek can't open library:
/System/Library/Frameworks/Quartz.framework/Versions/A/Quartz  (No such file or directory, errno
= 2)

And, indeed, while the system has a Frameworks/QuartzCore.framework,
there is not one called Quartz. 

What next?

I've finally had a chance to test it!

Stunning work. I'll update netrek.org tomorrow. We'll need to get you
an RSA key.

Is the source on the website somewhere?

Yeah this client looks cool. I wish there was way to compile it for
Linux! Is there any way to get the code working in Linux?

I'm sure there's a key combination for that somewhere. :)

There's a whole series on the website. The planetary graphics use the
new graphics that we had done, the ship selection screen is really
nice an intuitive, and a big departure from cow's.

Upgrade to tiger i fear. I will try to find out the differences and  
see if they can be detected
/circumvented. But the splash screen is Quartz, which is 10.4+ only.

uh uh, minor drawback of a 23" screen, next time when i make the  
package, i'll position the
window upper left before saving (i think packagemaker stores the  
window position)

Yep, that would be the Quartz Application library,  you'll need tiger  
for that. I'm not sure if sending you the Quarz lib would help.

So it's doable but would take some work.

Release early, release often. Can you send it to me?
