Title: Recent Mac Nightly debug builds won't open
Post by: swashmebuckle on August 23, 2009, 09:49:33 pm

Sorry I didn't report this sooner, I was on vacation.  Basically the Mac debug build at r5491 works perfectly for me, but the next one (r5494) doesn't do a thing.  I get this somewhat spare debug spew:

Code: [Select]

==========================================================================
DEBUG SPEW: No debug_filter.cfg found, so only general, error, and warning
categories can be shown and no debug_filter.cfg info will be saved.
==========================================================================
Opened log '/Users/robbit/Library/FS2_Open/data/fs2_open.log', Sun Aug 23 19:30:39 2009 ...
FreeSpace version: 3.6.11
Passed cmdline options:
  <none>None of the more recent debug builds work either.  The release builds are working fine though. 

I'm running 10.5.8 on a year old iMac
2 GHz Intel Core 2 Duo
ATI Radeon HD 2400

Hopefully this is just caused by something silly on my part, but I'd really appreciate any assistance so I can go back to being moderately useful to SWC.  Thanks!

hmm, Echelon reckoned this only affected release builds, but now that we've got confirmation it's affecting both, we've got somewhere to work from.

Thanks for the report, we're on it!

Nope, this only affects Debug builds

swashmebuckle, test again with the r5534 OS X nightly (http://www.hard-light.net/forums/index.php/topic,65309.0.html).

You guys rock.  That latest build is running fine and reporting crashes as normal.  Thanks a lot!

First time us devs have been thanked for crashes :) But yes, I do understand what you're saying.
