Mac OS issues

    I keep getting errors like this whenever i try to open certain saves, as well as not being able to see my stamps in my directory.

    Which saves crash for you? Also which version of OS X are you on?

    For stamps, first you have to find where your stamps were previously located. Then open TPT and go to simulation settings and click "Open Data Folder". Copy all your stamps and saves there.

    Thanks for responding. I'm running the latest OSX Mavericks. I was opening the first few saves on the fp when it crashed. It's been happening every now and then but not like today where it crashed every time i tried to open a save on fp. I dowloaded the most recent 90.2v of tpt and it seems to have worked but after i logged out (closed the app) and came back it kept happenening again 

     

    edit: sorry for the bad english, im from kyoto lol

    I tested it on my [REDACTED] which is 10.7 and it didn't crash for me, the mac version of TPT works just fine now. It's possible it could be a Mavericks issue, we'll see if other people report any problems.

    i know how this guy feels. i get errors on a daily basis. ANNOYING!!! 'Unhandled exception'... translates as: "I'm TPT and I crash!!!!!!!!"

    Fell free to create your own thread with information about the issue you're having, we're not telepathic and we need to know if people experience these crashes and what you're doing when it happens.

    I fixed my bug after updating TPT!

    I have a similar problem on Mac OSX Yosemite.

    I encountered this problem on windows when working on my mod. The problem is fixed by the upcoming update for TPT, but until then, TPT will just be annoying. I don't know where you can get the latest "bleeding edge" version for mac, perhaps I can compile it for you all.

     

    It is possible it isn't a problem with TPT code, but with the version of SDL, and whatnot, that it was compiled with.

     

    As a note: Although this is an old post, the problem is still persisting with the normal version of TPT.

    No, this is an older problem from like version 89.0 that was fixed in 89.2, it doesn't happen in the current version as far as I know.
