Demo not working on Macbook Pro 2010 10.6.3

Post by zebulon »

Hello All,

Just to let you know that the demo does'nt work on the new mac book pro 2010: The launch Menu opens but it is impossible to see any things inside (pixelised with black or white rectangle, etc...). I suppose this is due to the fact that these macbooks have two graphic chips (intel and nvidia), with the nvidia dedicated to graphic intensive games or applications. Maybe the nvidia is not activated at game startup?
My operating system is updated to 10.6.3 on macbook pro i7

Just hoping this won't happen on Book II.

The menu screen on Book II works just fine on MacOS 10.6.3.

The problem is Book 1 is two-and-a-half years old and apparently something with Apple's latest OS is not treating the app well. Book 1 needs to be recompiled with all the latest updates.
