Title: PSClient, PSLauch -- Will not run if i double-click them (PPC G4)
Post by: killswitch1698 on February 27, 2011, 01:17:24 am

I HAVE TROUBLESHOOTED WITH PREVIOUS POSTS IN THIS SECTION.
I HAVE SEARCHED
I believe this is a unique problem.

I have not had any problems before with this game...I deleted it a while ago, and decided I wanted to start playing it again.
The torrent downloaded perfectly fine. But then I try to run PSClient or PSLaunch and they will not run whatsoever.

I am completely lost in what to do for troubleshooting, so if anyone has a solution; more or less advice to this issue, it would be very appreciated.

 Hello I am sorry to say at this time PPC is no longer supported, unless you can build your own.

run it from the terminal and check why it's not starting. also you might consider a new computer.

I believe the modern Macs have intel processors, the old PowerPC line had Motorola/IBM CPUs; they are not compatible in their instruction set and data storage (Little Endian / Big Endian). Applications for PowerPC (68xxx) need to be compiled differently from applications for intel (x86).

This should possibly be written clearly on the download page.
