That works! Much simpler than I expected. Than you vey much!

[Thread 'Unknown (probably renderer)' blocking on 'DCQ']

Hi all,

I'd like to preface by saying I'm not much of an expert with OSX or with the finer aspects of computers such as placing things in a directory through the terminal. With that in mind, I have followed the instructions from the add-on packages section of the content page of the wiki. I have therefore ran these two lines:

  * cd /Applications/The\ Ur-Quan\ Masters.app/Contents/MacOS
   * ./The\ Ur-Quan\ Masters -n ../Resources/content --addon ADDONNAME

That got the ball rolling! It seems to work until a certain point. Here's the transcript from terminal:

Thread 'Unknown (probably renderer)' blocking on 'DCQ'


I've let it run for a whole night and it just kept reloading the last 7 lines, starting with the credit bytes line. Needless to say, the voices don't work in the game (and yes, I did turn the voice sound up!)

Any ideas?
