What happens when it stops? Does the icon stay there? Does it go away?

Can you open Terminal for me (It's an app that comes with Mac OS X; you can find it with Spotlight) and type in:

cd ~/Desktop/
/Applications/Warzone.app/Contents/MacOS/Warzone --debug all --debugfile debug.txt

(Press Enter after each line)

It will make a file called debug.txt on your desktop. Can you attach that file to your next post, so I can take a look at it? Thanks.

Okay, let's try this again.

One at a time:

1. Open Terminal (use Spotlight if you can't find it)

2. Copy this into Terminal:

Code: Select all

cd ~/Desktop/
3. Press Enter.

4: Copy this into Terminal:

Code: Select all

/Applications/Warzone.app/Contents/MacOS/Warzone --debug all --debugfile warzonedebug.txt
5. Press Enter.

6. There should be a file called "warzonedebug.txt" on your desktop. Upload it to me.

7. If there isn't, copy/paste everything inside the terminal, so I can see what's wrong.

Um, did you read the note on the download page?

If you're running Mac OS X 10.4, you'll need to install X11 (from the install disk that came with your computer) first.
