Title: Re: machinarium on mac Post by: Alex on February 15, 2013, 08:00:08 pm We need to know more info to help you. Which version of the game did you load; Collector's Edition, Humble Bundle download, or direct from Amanita Store (http://amanita-design.net/store.html)? Also which Mac OS are you running ( Lion, Leopard, Tabby Cat, whatever... ) And on what hardware platform are you playing... G5, MacBook, IIci... ;> obviously i'm playing around here a bit, but these are questions we'll need have answers to before we can help you.

It needs to be in that folder in order for the game to work.

Title: Re: black screen for machinarium on mac Post by: Lamkin on September 18, 2013, 08:16:25 am Doesn't seem to matter where I move it to... Wait, so did you move the Machinarium app out of the Machinarium folder that it was in? Seems like you're saying that it doesn't matter—you still get a black screen—even if the Machinarium app is in the Machinarium folder. If that's the case, did you move any of the other numbered folders out of that Machinarium folder? 'Cause everything needs to stay in that folder. And if you didn't touch a thing, you might want to try deleting and then reinstalling the game. |
