List of differences: https://openxcom.org/forum/index.php/topic,6459.0.html

I will try OXCE later, and I was looking for Ethereal mode here on forum in the proper topic and think it is interesting, does it based on OXCE?
So I can do double things to check it out both and maybe make a proper DMG pack for just download and ready to play for macOS X with all the icons

Here I did one : https://rutracker.org/forum/viewtopic.php?t=5690893

I think most macOS users just compile the newest version themselves.
I can do one for you if you want... or if you're ok with using OXCE, there are regular builds here: https://openxcom.org/forum/index.php/topic,5258.0.html

Well thank you, but firstly I need to understand for what is the difference between OXCE and OpenXcom
Then decide

Troubleshooting / Re: Errors with SAVEs and User config environment issue

« on: February 16, 2019, 11:30:04 pm »

There is no need to be harsh on users that prefer different operating systems.

Problem here is that this community does not have that many macOS developers making it harder to solve these kind of problems.
Besides that, it does not help that Apple has changed the behavior for GUI application starters and the way to influence these variables quite a lot over the past few releases (judging from the amount of internet topics/posts).

So, that's why there are build for macOS X making not so often as a normal one for Windows versions?
Last one is dev 20180720 as I found here on the forum...

I have packed that build for macOS X for community of the rutracker.org and put .dmg on it
It is consist of course with original vanilla data files of the games.
.icns icons made for macOS X with Retina display supported (@2x) I can put here for later use, but don't know where to
And am I right that it is not welcome to put links here on forum for torrent files consist of original game versions? or allowed to?
thanks

This only means they are not set globally enough. As in the .app does not see them.
 I'm no expert on OSX and no hardware to test it is nearby.

that's strange... even setenv/printenv shows it is gobally known vars:

seems tilda is well on macOS

Code: [Select]

MBP:~ user$ > echo $XDG_DATA_DIRS
/Users/user/Gamesanyway, i have changed all three variable and try point to $HOME/Games, result is same...
Game does't read them when starting through App in GUI...
attention to just this: when starting unix-executive though CLI then it is read $XDG_ properly 

Code: [Select]

MBP:~ user$ >~/Games/openxcom/openxcom.app/Contents/MacOS/openxcom
or

Code: [Select]

MBP:~ user$ > /Users/user/Games/openxcom/openxcom.app/Contents/MacOS/openxcom
the same app starts in GUi and it is read the default and didn't see $XDG_ variables set up globally

II.

Logs show that the tilda was expanded all right, that's not the problem.

re I - Battlescape saves are not guaranteed to load on a different version, although the exact error looks unfamiliar.

need to update yaml-cpp? I afraid it can mess some files and crush runtime later...

Troubleshooting / Errors with SAVEs and User config environment issue

« on: February 09, 2019, 07:05:17 pm »

Hello everybody,
Thank you for supporting that interesting project, game was played thousand times in 90s and still playable for now...
Appreciating for your time you makes things easier on modern terms...

I am having a two main issues here beginning after I moved game on macOS X Mojave.
Initially I used a Windows XP as a guest in Parallels Desktop on my macOS X Mavericks and its was run well (openxcom_git_master_2018_12), then decide install a native port after updating to macOS X Mojave on it (openxcom_git_master_2019_02_04_1901).
As result it was installed and running well as it is, but I having issues and basically playing with some settings and reading a manual is not help me to understand what to do to resolve.

I . Quick SAVE files done on Windows XP version of OpenXcom is not possible to load on macOS X Mojave version and always got an error on loading it:

Code: [Select]

[09-02-2019_19-40-44] [ERROR] yaml-cpp: error at line 0, column 0: bad conversion
it is happen on AUTOBATTLESCAPE SAVE and QUICKSAVE, GLOBE SAVE is possible to load successfully. 

II. I have configured $XDG_ in ~/.bash_profile
but when loading a game through clicking an OpenXcom.App it is still looking user config files in $HOME/Library/Application Support/OpenXcom and creating that folder and files in it if it is removed.
(even if $XDG_DATA_HOME is defined)
if I make a bash script and it is working well, game loads settings properly in this case, but I want to click an App in LaunchPad not through .sh script

~/.bash_profile

Code: [Select]

export XDG_DATA_DIRS=~/Games
export XDG_CONFIG_HOME=~/Games
export XDG_DATA_HOME=~/Games
openxcom.sh in the ~/Games/openxcom

Code: [Select]

#!/bin/bash
#
#~/Games/openxcom/openxcom.app/Contents/MacOS/openxcom -data "$XDG_DATA_DIRS/openxcom" -user "$XDG_DATA_HOME/openxcom" -config "$XDG_CONFIG_HOME/openxcom"
~/Games/openxcom/openxcom.app/Contents/MacOS/openxcom
