Technical problems with THE HORROR: downloading, installing, and running it
Solowren:
Hmm. After running just fine last night, my game now hangs at the loading screen. Music does not play. The bar does not progress.
Advice?
ETA: Never mind. Computer restart fixed it.
JennyJenny:
I've been having frequent crashes, with no immediately evident link. I have a few suspicions (bad download, corrupt something or other, etc) but I am also running it w/ an Nvidia GeForce 7500 LE, which is not listed specifically in the system requirements (7400 and 7600 are, but these numbers must not mean what I think they mean).
The worst part of being an early adopter on this is that there isn't any commonly known fixes for things like this yet.

Well, I trotted over to Mininova and someone pulled the torrent I had downloaded, along with all the comments associated with it. Or they have hidden it and I can't find it. But the newest torrents listed all have a May 21, 2009 posting date. Sooo, it looks as if EA yanked it. I am going to find a different one to download and hopefully it will be more in line with the ones all of you have, and the installation won't be quite so confusing. Well, I can hope, can't I? :-\
You said everything went to My Documents. What did that stuff look like? It sounds like you might have everything you need and just need to install.

I know that disclaimers won't earn me jack here, but I'm pretty sure I've read all posts (definitely the long one before the split, then did text searches in this thread), and have not seen this asked:
Does the arr'd version/image that seems to be the main release (the reloaded one, have seen it anywhere from 4-5gb on various places) also include the mac/OSX version? I'm pretty sure I've seen one person talk about the performance on their mac, but I do not see a separate release for it on torrents or usenet.
Not crucial, just curious. I'm on vacation and pretty bandwidth-free so cannot arr yet.

I have seen comments to the effect that one of the reloaded versions available from TPB either includes a Mac version or runs on the Mac. There is no way for me to confirm this at present, however. I would suggest reading comments before starting download. Also you may be able to review an included files list which may include information of that sort.
