[SOLVED] Problem getting Trem started(Mac)

[Tw]

Recently reinstalled Trem(deleted by mistake ) I re-download it from apple.com, when I try and run it, it goes to a black screen, flash of blue then returns me to my desktop, no error message or nothing . If someone could help me out would be appreciated.

[blood2.0]

you redownloaded it from apple .com ?

[Tw]

Yes, it's where I downloaded it when I first installed it...
http://www.apple.com/downloads/macosx/games/action_adventure/tremulous.html

Immediately after it dies, open /Applications/Utilities/Console (or do a spotlight search for Console and open the application that comes up) and copy the last few lines (or if it's not too big, all of the log since the first mention of tremulous)

Nevermind I found the problem, and fixed it, thanks.

TW how did you fix it? Mine is doing the same thing for the same reason as yours.

@Tw, it's common sense that if you waste forum space asking for help with a problem, you also supply the forum with the solution if you found one. This way, other people might benefit from it.

EDIT: Problem still not fixed

Try running it from Terminal.

That is, type "/Applications/Tremulous.app/Contents/MacOS/Tremulous.ub" at the prompt and hit return. If/when Tremulous crashes, post up the output. Benmachine's suggestion will also provide some extremely helpful debugging information.

What OS version are you using (e.g. 10.5.4)?

[OhSnapItsNathan]

Yeah I'm using 10.5.4

Ok well Holt told me to put my old UI folder back in(Octicz) and uninstall it before i put his in there, so I tried to unistall and it comes up with 'could not exec ui/octicz_unistall.cfg' also, Tremulous now starts up when Octicz' HUD is in my UI folder.

The problem has been my HUD I presume, so can someone help me exec a uninstall for my Octicz HUD

FIXED! Downloaded the new 2.0 HUD of his and uninstall worked! Wooo!

What an adventure lol.
