wghost81 Posted August 7, 2014 Share Posted August 7, 2014 (edited) Anderkent, I'll PM you the modfiles with fixes I was taking about. You'll need UPKModder to install those. Let me know if you're able to run it under Mac. Upd: just received your e-mail. Files sent. Edited August 7, 2014 by wghost81 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Anderkent Posted August 7, 2014 Share Posted August 7, 2014 Cool, the files seem to fix the crashes as far as I can see. There are minor visual annoyances (fatigued being dead) that wghost already sent me workarounds for, but other than that there's nothing clearly wrong! thither, since you seem to actually be playing the campaign on a mac (as opposed to me just playing around with the mod :P), I'd recommend you reach out to her as well. Your testing will probably have fuller coverage. To reiterate the install process (for your script): 0. Ensure the game was started at least once without the mod (fails to load menu if it never phoned home)1. Unpack the file2. Replace .upk files, remove corresponding .upk.uncompressed_size3. Replace Localization files in two directories (under XComGame, and in MacOverrides near the binary)4. Replace Config files under XComGame5. Delete files under MacInit in ~/Library/Application Support/Feral Interactive/blahblah6. Move DefaultGameCore.ini to MacInit/XComGameCore.ini and DefaultLoadouts.ini to MacInit/XComLoadouts.ini (all the other files will be generated from XComGame/Config)7. Block phoning home in /etc/hosts8. While on b13, replace the .upk files with ones from wghost - i assume the script won't have to do that I believe following these will give you a fully functional game. I've noticed some lags (for example when buying items), I'm curious if that also happens to you; I'm doing lots of things at the same time so the machine might just be kinda busy).

wghost81 Posted August 7, 2014 Share Posted August 7, 2014 (edited) You can replace b13 upk files with the ones from LW Linux distro and create your own Mac distro, which you can then send to jonnylump for uploading. Here is Linux version install/uninstall script: https://github.com/wghost/LongWar-Linux It might help you with Mac version. 0. Ensure the game was started at least once without the modGood point, I'll include it to Linux readme too.

thither Posted August 8, 2014 Author Share Posted August 8, 2014 To block phoning home, you need to add these two lines to /etc/hosts: 127.0.0.1 prod.xcom-ew.firaxis.com 127.0.0.1 prod.xcom.firaxis.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Argusnox Posted August 8, 2014 Share Posted August 8, 2014 (edited) ok finally works, thanks thither, already I played, Two missions with no graphic problem but, there is some missing text, in weapon and other items. what I did wrong?. UPDATE: I Forgot to copy a file from INT to MacOverrides so, I Fixed. But I'm Getting a lot of crashes when I try to run the game or buy a shotgun, maybe because I Skip the last step, Someone can explain me this (While on b13, replace the .upk files with ones from wghost - i assume the script won't have to do that) Edited August 9, 2014 by Argusnox Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wghost81 Posted August 9, 2014 Share Posted August 9, 2014 Yes, items manufacturing CTD is one of the bugs we fixed for linux version. Use new packages, I provided to Anderkent. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
robdamanii Posted August 9, 2014 Share Posted August 9, 2014 How are you guys getting to the .app/macoverrides directory? I've got no such directory. Do I need to break open the .app file? If so, how do I go about that and then recompile it? I've got long war button on the bottom of the opening screen, but all options are for vanilla EW.

To get to MacOverrides, you have to go into the application bundle. From the finder, you can right click on the executable ("XCOM Enemy Unknown" or "XCOM Enemy Unknown.app" at the root level of your XCom directory under SteamApps/common) and hit "show package contents". It's just a regular directory, you don't need to recompile anything after you update the files. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Only problem now I have is after moving all the files (and not patching the executable) I get a CTD. Can not figure out why. Spent 3 days on this. I guess I'll just wait for the install script, because I either get the LW button with vanilla options or a CTD. Neither one is working. I guess I'll reinstall vanilla, redownload and unpack the LW program and go from there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
