  • Hi,

    I'm making a game for windows/mac/linux and i have some problems with the macOS version.

    It simply crashes on start. In previous versions of the game it didn't crash, but now that I have made some big changes, it doesn't work.

    Here is the crash report : https://i.imgur.com/WnCCL2T.png And then a very long list of errors.

    I saw this problem on some forums before, but installing an old version of nw.js doesn't works for me...

    I read the nw github forums, but i didn't find a solution that works with me.

    We really want to release our game on macOS, any help ?

    Thanks,

  • Does this post help?

  • I saw it, but I just thought that it doesn't work with new versions of nw.js... And I don't think it's a permission problem, The Mac block first the app and ask for security thing, I allow it ("I give the permission to run the app") and then it crashes.

    I'll try your solution when I get the Mac back, but does that mean that every user must do the same manipulation ? Or just me and then I zip the final folder from the mac to share it after ?

  • I saw it, but I just thought that it doesn't work with new versions of nw.js...

    No, it's the other way round - you have to do it with the newer versions of NW.js. It's the older versions that don't need that.

  • Hi,

    I'm afraid that it doesn't work :/

    I tried two ways, the one you explain in your other topic. I have deleted everything in nwjs.app and replace it with the files into osx64 that c2built.

    And I also tried to modify the package.JSON with a previous version of nw...

    I still have that crash report : https://i.imgur.com/SQaFyZF.png, the same with both "solutions" <img src="{SMILIES_PATH}/icon_e_sad.gif" alt=":(" title="Sad">

    Any other ideas ?

    The bug arrived after the "loading screen update" I made al lot of changes with all the saving systeme (I use the basic load/save event, no arrays or anything). Cant it have any effect on that ?

  • Any news ? 😕

    I tried to get back to the old save/load system as it was before it began to crash. And it still doesn't work.

  • For dealing with bug reports, please see the bug report requirements. So far there is nothing for me to investigate. If you provide your project I can try it out myself.
