Trying to update Gamesalad to the latest, and crashes!!!!!!!!

fatcake

basically says it in the title, i have tried to update game salad to the latest update and when i install it and click to open it, it just crashes instantly. Any suggestions how to fix this please

Do you have Snow Leopard? GameSalad doesn't work on Snow Leopard anymore. Lion or later is needed.

fatcake

how come, why is this, i heard lion was bugey though, is it bugey anymore or?

Manto

Read this thread http://forums.gamesalad.com/discussion/47561/important-update-snow-leopard-support/p1 . I haven't found any bugs in Lion or Mountain Lion. GameSalad works perfect with both.

ok, how do you know if your processor is 64bit or 32 bit

Manto

well, check which processor you have from the "about this mac" window.

Then check which one it is from the list

Intel Core Solo - 32 bit
Intel Core Duo - 32 bit
Intel Core 2 Duo – 64 bit
Intel Quad-Core Xeon – 64 bit
Intel Core i5 – 64 bit
Intel Core i7 – 64 bit

fatcake

so if i have 32bit i can't now use game salad?

Manto

You can't use the newest version. Publishing will work with the older version for like 15 days from now.

fatcake

so is the a way to get round it, just have a 32 bit and using the newest version?

With 0.10.0 gamesalad only supports 10.7 64bit and newer. You will need to upgrade in order to use it.

If you can't upgrade you can continue to use the old product until mid September and then the publishing servers will be shut down.

I am closing this down as there have litterally been 20-30 threads on this topic, and there is an official sticky on both 0.10.0 and the snow leopard support.
