Topic: [MAC] Looking for Version 4.2 ppc

Hi!
I'm looking for Version 4.2 for mac ppc but I can't find it. And there's no "ppc is pending" so I'm asking if there will be one. I want to know when version 4.1 will come fpr ppc. I'm waiting and waiting
Thanks

Sorry for my english; typical germans ;-)

Well, we have a problem with PPC. We have noone who has time to maintain it so there will probably not be any PPC until someone steps up and takes a look at it. I don't have any PPC machines at home so I can't look at it.

Re: [MAC] Looking for Version 4.2 ppc

Bus error, also known as generel protection fault and segmentation fault. Should try running the game from a debugger to see what causes the crash.

We don't have anyone with time to maintain the ppc version.

Expect ppc to work in the next release.
