Mac App Store (0.9.14) version fails with a box reading:
Unable run run engine: 1
(/Applications/Hedgewars.app/Contents/MacOS/hwengine)

I've tried deleting and downloading again (twice).
I've tried downloading 0.9.15 from this site with the same problem.
Running plain vanila iMac, OSX 10.6.6, latest updates, etc.
Any clues what else to try?

koda would know more, but could be due to running the x64 snow leopard version on an older system when you should be trying the 32 bit universal version.

Ta Nemo...
I'm running 64 bit Snow Leopard on a Core 2 Duo machine.
Can see 64bit apps running happily in Activity Monitor.
No issues noted with any other applications.
Tried both the 64bit and the 32bit versions for 0.9.15 on the Download tab (ok, wasn't expecting the Tiger install to work, but tried that anyway).
Same behaviour for 0.9.14 from App Store and for the two downloads here.
This *is* my 'older system'...
Any more guesses?

Um. Not too sure TBH - was a game0.log generated? (~/.hedgewars/Logs under Linux - maybe Mac is same)

Koda is on a flight back to Europe right now, but I'm sure he can help in a day or so.

Works fine on my wife's newer Penryn-powered iMac that is still running Tiger... So nothing wrong with the downloads.

~/Library/Application Support/Hedgewars/Logs
But no files there...

Cheers!

i have no idea why this is happening
could you provide some more information about your system, software and hardware config?
did you try running all three variants? (mac appstore, 64 bit and universal)
can you try moving the bundle from the Applications folder to the desktop and then put it back there?

Hi Koda,
Ok, when I move the bundle to the desktop and try running from there I get the same 'engine' message but with a path pointing at the desktop path (so yeah, I'm running the app I think I'm running! ).
When I move it back to Applications the 'engine' message returns to that path...

I'm running a late 2007 2.4GHz Core 2 Duo 24in iMac with 4GB RAM, ATI Radeon HD 2600 Pro graphics. Mac OS X 10.6.6. Running 64bit. Memory is the only change from stock. No issues identified with any other applications.

Yup, tried App store 0.9.14 and the two 0.9.15 versions from the Download page here.
The Tiger version runs fine on my wife's newer 2.8GHz Penryn iMac running Tiger, so no problems with file corruption, tho I assume the disk image is checksummed.

I had the same problem but I downloaded version OSX 32bit i386 and it works properly. I have MacBook Alu with 64bit processor, 64bit EFI, 10.6.6 and computer can run 64bit applications but can't run 64bit Kernel. I think we have the same problem.

i think everything will be fixed as soon as 0.9.15 will get reviewed and approved
please hold on, this process is being incredibly slow

Hey guys, I had this problem to so what I did to check the problem was to open up hwengine itself. it said on the terminal the ff:

Last login: Sun Sep 25 19:43:43 on console
/Applications/Hedgewars.app/Contents/MacOS/hwengine ; exit;
Stephanies-Mac:~ steve$ /Applications/Hedgewars.app/Contents/MacOS/hwengine ; exit;
dyld: Library not loaded: /usr/X11R6/lib/libfreetype.6.dylib
Referenced from: /Applications/Hedgewars.app/Contents/MacOS/../Frameworks/SDL_ttf.framework/Versions/A/SDL_ttf
Reason: image not found
Trace/BPT trap
logout

[Process completed]

So from this, I found out that they were looking for a file that was in the folder /usr/X11R6/

The thing was, the one installed in our [or atleast the directory of most of us] was only /usr/X11R6/

So what I did was, I used a combination of Fabianjul's fix and mine so here's what I came up with:

1. open Finder, press CMD-SHIFT-G and enter /usr/

2. create a new folder [anywhere, maybe your desktop] and name it X11R6

4. copy the files from /opt/X11 to /usr/X11RG

5. paste the X11R6 folder on the /usr/ folder [i copy pasted it coz mine needed authentication, but I think u can just create the X11R6 folder on the /usr/ folder itself]

I hope this works for you guys~!

I just got a 2005 G5 PowerPC and this dirty work around got hw 0.9.17 running:

Open Terminal and type:

cd /usr/X116/lib/
sudo cp libfreetype.6.3.dylib libfreetype.6.dylib
