Ok, I'm a total noob when it comes to macs... I want to host a mac server using TJW's stuff. I hosted a TJW server on a Windows computer, so I know about where game.qvm goes. I am a bit confused as to where tremulous is actually installed on a mac though. I downloaded the Mac version for tremulous from Apple's site and ran the .dmg. I don't know if that actually installed it or not though, and without a place to put tremded.ub I can't run the server. I used the search function and didn't find any topics that answered this question, so if someone that knows a bit about macs would tell me what I need to do, that would be appreciated :D

Running the .dmg mounts a disk on your desktop, just like putting a CD in the drive. You'll need to copy the contents to your Applications folder first, then follow tjw's instructions in http://tjw.org/tremulous/SETUP.txt as you probably did on windows.

Thanks for the fast reply. So I copy the contents of the .dmg file to a folder in my 'Applications' folder, then follow TJW's setup... When I'm in terminal, and I run ./tremded blah blah it returns './tremded: Permission denied.' I'm an admin on my iMac but I have no idea how to work with Terminal, besides how to type stuff in. Is there a way I can grant myself permission to execute files in Terminal? :-?
