Page : <1> :
Hello everybody,
Is this the 287th or the 288th thread about this topic, I've seem to lost count. There are many different ways to get TGE to work. I didn't use any of them. Mine is custom fit to my computer. Figure it out....
Theres a spunky thread about this somewhere that is very helpful. If you're anything like "kk" and you have 6 or more hours on your time to peel through old threads you may find it...
Yeah, NEVA and I have the same hypothesis... I even posted how I did mine. Every time I do something with my computer, I change TGE cooperatively... Just... Figure it out. It's not that hard, at all. Besides, just download Napalm's TGE pre-installed. Despite being another way newbs get there way by whining, it's very nice of napalm...

The problem for most folks on Mac is understanding that TGE to work and see all of the paths in the game directory, it need to be launched from the terminal window. For example this is Spunky's path to get TGE to launch. I'll break it down.
/Users/spunky/Applications/gAmE FoLdEr/TorqueGameEngineDemo /Torque Demo OSX.app/Contents/MacOS/Torque Demo OSX -console -mod game
The part in bold is subjective. This means it will be different for everyone because it depends on where you place TGE on your machine.
Mine looks like this.
/Applications/Games/TGE//Torque Demo OSX.app/Contents/MacOS/Torque Demo OSX -console -mod game
I also keep this in a document to paste into the term window so I don't have to go through this but once.
You should be able to find the path by dragging the TGE app into the terminal window and then pressing enter. The first portion of the path is what differs.
GO to the appfolder and locate Torque Demo OSX, right click and "show package contents" go to contents/MacOs/Torque Demo OSX.
Drag that into the term window. It will display the path. Just add -console -mod game to the end of that syntax
(a space between Torque Demo OSX -console -mod game.
Copy it from the terminal not from this web page. Syntax will be reformatted from the web page.
Hope that helps.
