Its still not fixed. There are some ways around it(like opening the containing folder etc.) but now those ways doesn't work in the current version anymore.

There is no fully working Mac version for cs2d since approximately 4-5 Versions.

I hope you can finally investigate this problem and fix it. Its really frustrating for Mac users. Probably most of the people simply doesn't play anymore, they don't even report the bug.

I don't use steam. I could test it whether it works there but In general I hope the standalone version will get a fix soon

@user Kingakis: I'm very sorry but I already looked into that issue and tried a few things but I was unable to reproduce it in my test environment and apparently I also didn't manage to fix it. Unfortunately I don't have a real Mac at all so it's quite difficult (if not impossible) for me to find out what's going on there.

Are you sure that you unpacked the whole archive with all of its contents properly? You have to run the CS2D application with all the files in the archive right next to it otherwise it will fail to load the files.

@user SQ: That's not true anymore. It was like that a few versions ago but I started packing all files with all clients some time ago.

@user DC:

Okay, then thanks for your efforts to fix that problem.

The thing is as soon as you download the zip package, the Mac seems to converting by himself. Its not like in windows in which you do that manually. So I doubt the files are really unzipped -> that leads to the problem

Thats why I thought maybe you could do a rar archive instead of zip, because there you need a normal unarchiver tool like in windows too. Maybe that works.

@user Kingakis: Converting? What does that look like? Is there a folder with the extracted files then? What's inside? Can you give me a screenshot so I get an idea?

Isn't the zip file stored somewhere after downloading? Can't you go there and just extract it yourself?

Maybe this helps:

or: Use Firefox/Chrome and try downloading with them.

I can imagine that Safari or Mac OS or some anti virus software thinks that some files are dangerous (for whatever reason. Maybe nonsense file name detection patterns) and just skips extraction of these files. Leading to missing files.

So I tried the link out, and this leads to an unzipped cs2d folder(probably before that fix safari unzip it automatically) So I think that's kind of good. When I unzipp it manually then the same error occurs.

Here a screenshot of the folder after unzip:

In this version the main application has error symbol of Mac that means when you are clicking it, it shows "this file is destroyed or not completed" etc. not completed prolly means files are missing. But this is new to the current version.
Normally I can press "show content" and then I found like in this screenshot a working app
https://imgur.com/a/lgdqPya

but in this version even this shows the error after cs2d screen pops up.

If I can give you any other information to help to fix this problem feel free to ask(maybe a video of downloading opening etc.?)
(tested in safari and google chrome both same errors)

@user Kingakis: Thanks for the info and the screenshots.

What you can try is copying the contents (except "CS2D") from the first folder (first screenshot) into the second folder (second screenshot). And then run it. Does that work?

I assume that I did something wrong when packing the executable file. I'll see if I find a way to fix that.

Edit: Okay, can actually reproduce this when downloading the packed archive.
• When you right click the "broken" CS2D thingy you can use the "show package contents" (or something like that) option to get the actual binary.
• Drag & drop the CS2D binary inside there to your desktop (or somewhere else)
• Then go back to the folder and drag & drop it back in there.
• Click yes to replace the existing file.

I assume that this is somehow caused by the way the file is compressed. I will figure out a way to fix that.

Edit 2:
Okay.. I just can't figure it out. I packed a working version under MacOS directly but after downloading it it doesn't work anymore.
I guess it's not executed in the right folder after downloading it.
When you open the MacOS console/temerinal, navigate to the CS2D folder (using 
cd
) you can run the game using the following command
1
./CS2D.app/Contents/MacOS/CS2D

Edit 3:
Because I didn't find a proper solution and because only a tiny number of people are using the Mac client zip version I decided to add a "Run CS2D.command" file which can be executed to run the CS2D.app properly. Just download again and try it. I hope that works that way.

Steam version works though.

@user SQ: There are two shots. The red speech bubble icon in the second is misplaced.

@user SQ: Use any 4:3 resolution with 16:9 scale (without the 4:3 aspect radio checked). Example: 800x600 or 1024x768 and press f5 to make a screenshot.

Usage of this code in a 
movetile
hook will leak RAM.

1
parse('effect "fire" "'..px..'" "'..py..'" "2" "28" "255" "255" "255"')

As seen here: https://youtu.be/HplI7aUVn8s


EDIT:

Also if a timed hook will not finish itself within the amount of time it's supposed to (1 second for the second hook for example) it will leak RAM.

Those leaks need to be fixed...
