My install of M2 with either the 1.44 update doesn't work. I USED to be able to load 1.44 and play in the software render mode, but OpenGL crashes each time.
Now, when I try to load, the game crashes before it gets to the title screen.
Any ideas? I'm running on a 12" alum powerbook, Panther 10.3.4.
Thanks!

Ok, I've got it working. I'm not sure what I did differently, but 1.5fc1 is now allowing me to play with OpenGl graphics rendering.

the problem, as i said in another post recently, was to di with apple changing opengl in 10.3.3. 1.5 specifically addresses this change.
just so you know.

thanks for that... i was getting really frustrated there. To be honest, I'm not sure why it did start working, I don't recall doing anything differently with the installations.
One thing which did strike me was that the beta #2 installer created a Myth II directory in my Applications folder, despite the original game being installed in Macintosh HD folder (under Myth II f). I actually ended up moving both of these folders to other locations, but the game still works.
I'm glad, as this is one of my favourite games I had a lot of fun in residence playing WWII plugins!
