Mac build blackscreens on station entry. I see a flash of the old station interior with animation, then black screen, "warp drive activated" voice. Mouse cursor seems to indicate that there are UI objects around, but you just can't see them.
"Every time I press this black button that is labelled in black on a black background the black light lights up black to tell me I've done it." -- Zaphod Beeblebrox
I have all the settings to max, fullscreen mode.
edit: you can undock if you click in the right place. And I can't believe I messed up the HHG2G quote.

It's best to give feedback on the test server forum guys. Or open a bug report ingame on Duality if it's a bug not a feature request.
difficult to make a bug report on the test server from a black screen...

I think you lost the mac user base when you mentioned having to press more than one button. Do you have a fix that "Just Works?" I for one did not spend $3000 on a mac so that I would actually have to learn how to use technology. Is there an App or something in the mac store I can download to do it for me? Something that only requires clicking once?
It's not that hard, the instructions tell you everything step by step. No previous knowledge required other than how to right click.. and read. |

Ah perfect, I don't know why I didn't think of looking for poorly written instructions from a post written after I had already tried to install instead of going to the download page and following the instructions from the installer.
Did you read the dev blog?
"you'll need to get a client to connect to Duality. To connect; simply follow these 5 easy steps:
1. Download the Duality Installer
2. Run it, ensure you do NOT install over top of your Tranquility client!
3. Create a shortcut for eve.exe
4. Edit the properties of the shortcut; in the target field, add " /server:87.237.38.60" [Note the space]
5. Click "OK" then use the shortcut to launch the Duality client."
You missed steps 3-5 before launching the client... |

I did not read the dev blog first, I am fully aware what went wrong now. I read the news item on the front page which said to use duality and I saw a link for duality right next to it, so I downloaded it.
The news item links to the dev blog, I don't see any link to the Duality download next to it on the home page.
It isn't CCPs fault if you jumped the gun and didn't read the full post before going off on your own half ****ed.. often for special tests and things there are special instructions given in the posting, like in this case. That is why everything isn't necessarily on the download page itself.
Live and learn though.
Best of luck. |
