Powder Toy Doesn't Open on OS X
-
I've tried running the newest versions of TPT (91.2, 91.3) on my MacBook, but every time I try to open the application, I keep getting a window that says "The Powder Toy Quit Unexpectedly." Even when I press the "Reopen" button on the window, it keeps giving me that message.
This has been massively frustrating... version 91 has had a rocky start so far, at least for OS X users...

OS X support is really difficult sometimes >:, especially when none of the devs have a mac. From what i've seen, some OS X users can run it fine (based on their reports of the screen bring all messed up with 3d :P), but you are the second person to report it.
Can you post the full crash report to pastebin.com / qp.mniip.com / some paste site? It might help me find where the crash is.
Also, what version of OS X are you using? The crash report would tell me this though .. but I hope it isn't another bug where it breaks on certain versions of OS X. -
Here's the full crash report from the OS X Window: http://pastebin.com/6XmYgF7X
And my version of OS X is El Capitan version 10.11.3

This is very strange. I've seen error reports like that before, and gotten them myself. Then I made a change which seemed to fix it, and it hasn't happened since. But I guess it wasn't really fixed ...
Maybe a strange thing to do, but could you try deleting powder.pref? If you can find a recent working version of the game, go into simulation settings (checkmark at the bottom), and click "open data folder". Then delete or backup powder.pref. I think the issue last time was related to this indirectly. -
