Do you get an error message? How does it stop? Does it appear on the Dock?

No, it does not appear on the dock at all, no error message, nothing. It seems like it is not opening at all.

If you open "Console.app" and search for 'wz2100' does anything come up?

Yes it mounts a disk image onto my computer then I copy the application into my Applications folder.

No nothing comes up when I search wz2100 after double clicking the Warzone 2100 icon.

Try searching again (in "Console.app") for "warzone" and let us know if that turns up anything.

Sorry, just got off work.

This means that you do not have x11 installed which is required for the game to work; the best way to get it is from the 10.4 install dvd.

It will not let me install it on my computer, it says: You cannot install X11 on this volume. Newer Software already exists on your computer. I had tried to do this before but figured I was fine if I had newer software.

google says you need to uninstall it, then install it from the DVD.
