edited November -1 in Working with GS (Mac)
Okay , well I have a mac snow leopard 10.6.3. I plan on updating soon to 10.6.7. Problem is that mac holds no internet connection. Basically im typing this using my windows pc which holds internet. My mac does not, it has issues.

I was able to download gamesalad using my pc and transfered it over to the mac. Everything works fine.

Real question is , is there any other way i am able to publish my game without doing it by the publish button since my mac holds no internet what so ever ?

Any other form or way could be appriciated. If there isnt any , please do say so.

    I don't think there's another way...I would try to get an Internet connection to your mac if at all possible. If its having problems, try calling your local Apple Retail Store, they might be able to offer you some tips on how to get it working properly. Good luck.

    What is the problem with your internet, what is the spec of your mac and router ?

    Just to confirm, there is no other way.

    Now, the next step is to get your Mac online.

    Weird, my internet has been randomly disconnecting... Although I suspect it has something to do with the router. Or maybe its a government plot...?

    It seems that if a mac wasn't required to use and publish Game Salad wouldn't say so.
    But hey nothings impossible. I tell you what for a fee I would be willing to publish your game for you using your certificates and stuff. you can contact me here tenrdrmer(at)yahoo.com

    Hope that doesn't upset anyone. ;)

    Whenever I am having issues with my router, I do one of three things.

    Option 1: Unplug the router's power cord to let it shut down completely, then plug it back in after a few minutes, and my Internet usually works after the router has had time to turn back on fully.

    Option 2: Change the router's channel to a different one. Sometimes other nearby routers can be using the same channel you are, which will conflict with your Internet stability. A good way to know if this is the problem is if you are able to get online, but you are kicked offline by your router after a certain period of time.

    Option 3: If both Options 1 and 2 fail, I panic :) But I rarely get to this option, but when I do, I usually call my Internet provider.

    Of course there is always the option of using an ethernet cable and hardwiring your computer to the Internet, but I prefer wireless myself.

    there's ways out there but that would
    a. be NOT legal at all...
    b. would take a lot of expertise into creating a wrapper that would 'fool' gamesalad in to thinking that its connecting on to the gs server to get the binary.. and set up a server of your own to create a similar binary dispatch method.

    ... hmm. might as well get the internet. Lot easier.

    As a former government scientist, I can confirm that both the UK Inland Revenue and US IRS are sabotaging the Internet connections of indie developers. If small companies start making cool apps, then consumers will spend less money with bigger companies, who usually pay a higher rate of tax. There are therefore a small number of network assassins who tap into routers and disrupt the service they provide.
