<div class="IPBDescription">Bug Fixes please - for the love of god</div>I have just spent an hour of my day trying to get this probably beautiful and insanely fun game to run on my mac bootcamp win7 pc...
WHY WON'T IT WORK?? :( everytime time it lets me actually enter the game (which is in 1 out of 5 tries) the whole thing just crashes after 10 sec.
unbelievably frustrating.
i have encountered an endless continuation of crashes.
Please, please patch it, fix it, or do something.

    It's barely playable for everyone, Mac or PC.

    constant crashes here too,
    new video driver, sound driver, have tried a number of fixes... mostly crashes to desktop. sometimes it will freeze and sound loop.

    well at least i'm not alone , the more people have the same error the more likely it gets patched up

    Please post your system specs, if you dont know them, do a dxdiag and post the results in here.

    Need your system specs (you can Start > Run> dxdiag > save all information
    and then post it in here with "wrap with code tags"

    Also highly important is to know what error you are receiving, immediately after you crash (without running ns2 again) go to wherever a Mac would store OS files for programs (have zero clue about macs), the equivalent would be Windows' "C:\Users\Ironhorse\AppData\Roaming\Natural Selection 2" and in there is a "Log.txt"
    In that log, near the bottom will be error(s) please post them here as well!

    The devs are hard at work on these crashes - but we need info!
