[solved]Keyboard issue in OSX
« on: December 09, 2009, 09:30:56 pm »

Hay,

tried running Cedric's project6014 on OSX but hit a brick wall:
Starting ./uqm-debug from terminal starts it, but all the keyboard commands stay in the terminal shell. No input goes to the program itself.

Launching the app from the icon crashes!

Tried something lame like ./uqm-debug < /dev/stdin , but that didn't do a thing...

Any OSX wizards around?

Running ./uqm-debug on OSX does just that, the input goes to the terminal. Nothing we can do about it.
After you build UQM, you need to run ./build.sh uqm install and then run ./The\ Ur-Quan\ Masters.app/Contents/MacOS/The\ Ur-Quan\ Masters
That will launch the app properly.

Hmm.. too bad, the same behavior occurs.

Strange, the 0.7 starts OK with ./uqm-debug, but this 0.6.4 directs input to terminal with both ./uqm-debug and ./The\ Ur-Quan\ Masters.app/Contents/MacOS/The\ Ur-Quan\ Masters after installing...

Self-answer:

Full-screen to the rescue!

Running the program with -f switch did the trick, yay!
