Hey there, so I just got UQM for my mac (I used to play it religiously on my PC). I downloaded the voice addons because I always liked the character the voices bring. I'm not computer savvy, and I'm even less Mac savvy. I'm sure this question has been asked before, and I looked in the forums a bit to find an answer, but there were none that I saw (or could understand maybe?). My question is this:
How do I get the addon to work with the game  ?
and FWIW, I have signed the petition and inspired a few friends to sign it too.. Long live SC!
Thanks in advance for the help.

Ok, I'm going to spell this out, because I am pretty computer savvy (though still not very Mac savvy) and it took me a little bit of time to get it sorted out.
1. Download uqm-0.6.0-voice.uqm from http://sc2.sourceforge.net/downloads.php and save it to /Applications/The Ur-Quan Masters.app/Contents/Resources/content/packages/addons/voice.
*** Note: You will need to create the 'voice' directory.
If you want to run it from Terminal, you can follow the wiki instructions here: http://wiki.uqm.stack.nl/The_Ur-Quan_Masters_Technical_FAQ#How_do_I_use_add-on_packages.3F (note that 'voice' should replace 'ADDONNAME')
If you want to be able to double-click the app and run it, complete the following
2. Open Terminal
3. In terminal, do the following:
3a. cd /Applications/The\ Ur-Quan\ Masters.app/Contents/MacOS
3b. mv The\ Ur-Quan\ Masters uqm
3c. vim The\ Ur-Quan\ Masters
In the editor that opens up, hit 'i', then paste the following 2 lines:
#!/bin/sh
/Applications/The\ Ur-Quan\ Masters.app/Contents/MacOS/uqm -n /Applications/The\ Ur-Quan\ Masters.app/Contents/Resources/content --addon voice
Once you've pasted that, hit 'esc' then ':wq!'. Hit enter to save and quit. Back in the terminal prompt do:
3d. chmod +x The\ Ur-Quan\ Masters
Voila! You can now double-click the app and get voices. Note that you might need to open the settings to adjust the voice volume (mine had been at 0).
---
This might be a roundabout way to get the double-clicking to work. As I said, I'm still finding my way around OSX, though I've got a decently strong *nix and Windows background.

I just placed it in Ur-Quan Masters.app/Contents/Resources/content/packages/ and it worked...
Maybe I over complicated it. I was just trying to follow the wiki's instructions, and it says to run it via the terminal. Oh well.

Will there also be an in-game way to enable or disable add-ons, then? Because running via Terminal doesn't seem like a good solution...
