    Yes, but since I don't know much about macs I can't tell you what.

    But powder.pref is definitely being saved and loaded now, possibly in some global user preferences directory but i'm not sure. I don't think stamps and local saves are being loaded, but they might be.

    Also it won't ever ask you to install it again and then complain that "you don't need to install this".

    The fullscreen issue will probably be fixed next version too, if the new build system is finished. And i'm sure stamps / saves will work by then too, so it should really be a lot less glitchy finally, now that someone has a mac.

    Edit: oh, and the clipboard now works entirely, so you should be able to copy / paste into other programs now.

    I realize now that this may have been a more appropriate place to post my issue with 89.0 and Mavericks but I placed a thread in Help before that realization. As I said there, my mouse does not act properly, almost as if the box that the mouse acts within doesn't move with the window. As a result, the game works fine when the window isn't moved from where it opens but if you move the window, the brush moves offset from the mouse.

    The new beta release works great, but i can't seem to open my old saves with it. Could anyone help me with this issue, or will it be fixed in the final version of 89.1?

    You will have to move all of your old saves to the new location. The old location is right next to the program, I have no idea where the new location is, but probably some global settings directory.

    Also unless Simon has plans to try and fix it (which I doubt, it wasn't able to read your old saves before so I don't see why it would be able to now), you will have to still do this once it's released, but only once and it will load it from the new directory from now on.
