Nightly builds not launching Mac OS X

Post by stiffkittin »

Hello,

Could anyone please tell me if there are any minimum requirements for the Nightly builds, specifically on older macs? I have been unable to run a nightly since I began using OpenMW in October, no errors of any kind just a failed launch. I'm currently using 0.45 stable with no visible issues, including successfully installing a few mods. I've tried running various nightly's with and without my preferences/settings files present but this changes nothing.

I'm trying this on a 2009 macbook running OS X 10.11 and wondered if the nightly's perhaps don't support older versions of Mac OS? If not, would there be a way for me to produce a build or workaround on my end that does?

Thank you for reading.

Yes I am having the same issue with running 0.46.0. I am also using MacOS 10.11 El Capitan.

0.45.0 launches fine.

Is there any way to get the current release working? Thanks.

Correct, newer versions are not compatible with older MacOS releases. I'm not sure where the cutoff is though.
