Can someone help me make the mod manager work on a mac

[drziegler]

I've downloaded the mod manager and when I open it, it just quits.

 

Intel Mac

Mac OS X 10.8.1

I'm guessing you use Wine (not specified in your post), so I will explain possible solutions for Wine. When asking for help, post as much info as you can.

 

Make sure you have .NET Framework 3.0 at least, you can get it with Winetricks using the following commands (not sure will these work for Mac since they are for Linux and Mac is UNIX which I never used, you should know that and modify the commands accordingly):

 

 

 

sudo mkdir /home/user name/winetricks    #make directory for winetricks
cd /home/user name/winetricks    #navigate to it
wget http://winetricks.org/winetricks    #get winetricks
chmod +x winetricks    #change file mode
sudo ./winetricks    #execute winetricks
sudo winetricks dotnet30    #get .NET Framework 3.0

 

4.0 tends to fail so I don't recommend it unless you absolutely need it. Note, getting Framework 3 will also get you Framework 2 so if you have a 64-bit system, you'll need a 32-bit Wine prefix.

 

Also, make sure you're installing the mod manager (you also didn't specify which one) in the same prefix as New Vegas is installed, otherwise it won't detect it and crash.
