The new mac version (0.9.2)

[indigo]

it jus doesnt seem to work it wont even get to main menu the moment i clik on it, it closes!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I've been having the same problem. When I first tried Wesnoth 0.9.2, it came up with a message saying it 'didn't recognize the closing tags' on the previously installed campaigns. When I moved them out of the wesnoth folder (Library/Preferences/Weesnoth/Data/Campaigns) the game opened normally. Then, after I quit, I was unable to reopen it. When I try, the screen goes dark, as if the game is starting, and then it just returns to the desktop.

I haven't played Wesnoth since 8.8 came out, but I just dl'ed 9.2, and when I double-click on it, nothing happens. It appears in the dock than dissapears. It doesn't even make the screen turn dark or turn the mouse into the spinning beach ball.

I'm running 10.3.7, 500Mhz G3, and am on a different computer than the one that I had Wesnoth 8.8 on.

It would be great if someone having this problem could post the relevant lines from the Console log, so crimson_penguin could have something to work with.

This is what I get when launching this app (0.9.2)
***$ /Applications/Battle\ For\ Wesnoth.app/Contents/MacOS/Battle\ For\ Wesnoth
dyld: /Applications/Battle For Wesnoth.app/Contents/MacOS/Battle For Wesnoth can't open library: /usr/lib/libstdc++.6.dylib (No such file or directory, errno = 2)
Trace/BPT trap

What OS version are you using?

I'm getting the exact same problem (double click to open - it appears in the dock and then disappears) with Mac OS X. I had this same problem with 9.1 though, so who knows.

I saw this morning a mail about the port of ardour to MacOs and they have trouble with the different versions of MacOs X. I think it may/must be related.
The problem seems to be that the path to the dynamic library is contained in the program at compile time and Apple has changed the place of some libs between the minor versions.
The only way they found as today is to provide a binary for each minor version

I'm runing 10.3.4 with no luck. There is no such file in the /usr/lib/ dir.

Which version of Mac OS X are you running (see About This Mac), and in Terminal, what does 'ls -l /usr/lib/libstdc++.*' give you as output? It would be useful to know if for instance you have a libstdc++.5.dylib, since we may then be able to create a build linked statically against libstdc++.a which should work on your machine.

I couldn't run it with 10.3.7, but since I downloaded 10.3.9, I have no problems.

I have a more specific issue with 0.9.2 for the Mac. I got to the "Lost General" scenario of HTTT, and discovered that the Dwarf Fighters in this scenario don't look to be able to advance to Level 2. This is not the case on Linux--I'm even using the same scenario files on both my Mac and Linux box.

The dwarves level fine for me in "The Lost General" (easy), but Wesnoth is quitting when I try to start "Hasty Alliance" (easy). Delfador and Konrad chat with Li'sar, but when the Orcs start showing up, Wesnoth quits
