I plan to give it a deeper look on weekend.

take care wompi

It just won't work on anything before 10.7. I tried to get it compatible with 10.5 or 10.6 but couldn't get the main gfx library (SFML 2.0) to compile with that. Still like 30% of folks on 10.6, so that kind of sucks... But I'm a late updater and even I'm on 10.8 now so hopefully most people will be on at least 10.7 pretty soon.

Thx for giving it a shot tho!

Actually, I am going to take another pass at 10.6 compatibility. I'll let you know if I have any success and maybe I can get you to try it again...

Wow, I'm honored. :-)

I'm all in favor of being as backwards compatible as possible, so I gave 10.6 compatibility another shot, but I couldn't get it working. I got wxWidgets and SFML to compile with the 10.6 SDK and 10.6 target version, but my XCode project itself still fails with some linker errors I can't figure out when I set the target to 10.6. Seems like I'm close, but I'm at a loss...

Hi mate. Finally I got my system upgraded. It was quite a tough task, because "Lion" is not on sale anymore and thats the only upgrade my old macbook can handle. Anyway, one data loss and near heart attack later I figured out how to bring the system back to work - I guess you owe me a beer :).
I'm not sure if I need more updates (there are still some shown in "Software Update"), because BerryBots is still crashing. It starts, and I can choose a stage and bots but if I hit start game the App ends.
Maybe you have an idea what could be wrong. And if you need more info, I can give you the whole crash report if needed.

take care

EDIT: Sure I will try it out right away.

Argh! For the sake of testing clarity, could you try this one? [1] I know that's the exact v1.1.0 that my brother tried on his 10.7 iMac. You could also try v1.1.3 from the downloads page.

If that doesn't work, please do post the whole crash report, or email it to me (voidious at gmail). Thanks man! Hopefully you didn't upgrade to Lion in vain!
