1.34.11 Open BETA

[bumloch]

I get the following error when opening the Mac beta.

We were unable to find a patch file for your version of Battleground Europe. Please visit the Battleground Europe downloads page for the latest version.

running on OS X 10.9.5

Front drive wheel still square texture.

Those are sprocket teeth... need trimming

Mac Beta is not code signed correctly, it is signed with developers internal certificate "Mac Developer: Dave Carlton (33TC7NSLLR)" instead of "Developer ID Application: Playnet Inc (J63A54QWD2)" as it should be. As the result, gatekeeper in Mac OS X would complain and refuse to load it, until you use "righclick-open" trick

Binary is 32-bit i386 architecture, not the 64-bit x86_64 as modern Mac software should be.

Planet, you should really consider recompiling it for 64bit, it is not 2006, it is 2015 now and no one of your customer is running your game on 2006 macs (all macs released after 2007 are 64-bit capable).

And yes, key mapper now seems to work on mac. thanks guys

okay lets see. the game works good for me.

then i was looking those textures.

- 38t looks pretty awesome!

but then.

- S35 looks a bit weird, frontal armor has different texture. and the rear of the turret tower, it looks like it has a big hole there and it is black inside the tank. like in some other tanks too, you cannot see inside the tank from infantry perspective.

- i dont really know if most of those textures looks any different but stuka has this problem too.

i really like the interior of stuka now, but it looks a bit WORK IN PROGRESS from outside. here is comparison from day/night time.

-also the german ATG didnt look much different, at least the frontal shield didnt look different?

- i didnt see any difference in panhard textures too.

- or in p-39.

+ the active battles tab works fine! thats most important i think yet. but these textures should be fixed too

That black on the Souma is the "hatch" that's open - in RL that actually exists there...

oh, okay i see.. maybe it should be "remodeled" then?

are you sure yours was closed in the screenshot? --in both of them it appears that the hatch is "open" - when closed that black patch isn't there. On your first Screenshot you can see the hatch door just behind the turret.

not working.

first d/l i put it on my storage drive

second d/l i put it on my main ssd drive

result is the same

windows also warns me to not run the app and i have to click on the more button to run anyway. Also tried running it as admin.

"Unable to execute file in the temporary directory. Setup aborted

Error 5 Access is denied"

I had to rt click download file, open properties and unblock the file.

I use a Mac. I downloaded the patch. It does not work. It's very frustrating not being able to get into the game. Too often this sort of thing happens, tired of so many errors. You can not do so.

Error advice:

"We were unable to find a patch file for your version of Battleground Europe. Battleground Europe Please visit the downloads page for the latest version".

[delems]

Yep, still can't get in either - says no patch.

[nautilus]

Same error. Just downloaded and installed this morning.

[rum]

doesnt work online for me, only able to run offline

On a mac, make sure that you are using the 'ww2beta' app to launch the game.

Clicking on the 'ww2beta' app (script) launches the game fine for me.

huh. I do not have that launcher in my Applications folder or on the dmg.

[delems]

Never heard or seen a script like that either.

thanks, i will try that

[delems]

Anyone ever get the mac beta to run? Mine still asking for a patch.

[Sudden]

Still no luck. Whatever error 5 is in windows 10 it has something to do with permissions but so far no luck.

The new texture issues is a result of a build gone funky, those were working before and we should have them fixed up shortly for testing.

Mac users - here is a fix I did that made the online beta work on 2 of my machines:

- Extract the new World War ][ Online app from this thread (secondary server).

- rename the original WWIIOL client in Applications, or put it in a new folder somewhere. The original client doesn't seem to mind launching with a new name or directory, but the new beta script does not.

- Install the new app into Applications

- download this launch script into Applications (ww2beta.zip)

https://www.dropbox.com/s/q6oak510woxzoad/ww2beta.zip?dl=0

DOWNLOAD PASSWORD IS joinblitzkader ;)

- unzip the 'ww2beta' app in the Applications directory

(was in the closed beta app package, and is what Dog3 was referring to)

- launch the 'ww2beta' app script, which will launch the new Beta login screen and allow you to join the beta.

Test this and see if you can get a successful connection. Right now the server is empty, so if this is not the public beta server perhaps this is a login to a test server. Either way, it's the only connection I've had to an online server that is with the new version, so perhaps that terminal script can be updated to point to the correct live open beta server address as a global Mac fix.

Nice work. This is working for me. As you said, no one in the server right now so I will have to check back when I know there's people in there.

[delems]

Yep, got it working for me too. gj

[vstrider]

I'm trying to get the beta fired up and followed these latest instructions - my only hiccup is that the 'ww2beta' app downloads - I put it in the applications folder and when I click on it, it won't unzip. It just hangs there...any ideas?

This worked for me also. I was able to login into the Mac Beta Server.
