I have been trying everything for the past 2 days to successfully install this game. At first I tried to download the macosx files, but no programs could unzip it (or even recognize it). I then moved onto the macosx10.3.9 download, which went smoothly. I had extracted the files into a folder on the desktop, then downloaded the patch for the updater: macosx1039. The file unzipped/extracted and I replaced the old file with the new. The updater just shook around in my dock with no result. I had learned from the forums to change the "false" to "true" on the .xml file, with no result. I had then read the second post, changed the file completely (save target as) but the updater still did not work. The client itself encounters the error "the application psclient_static quit unexpectedly". The relaunch button does nothing.
I tried to install the macosx updater over the macosx1039 updater, but nothing happened. I had read that I could probably avoid this problem by downloading the 4.0.0 file but none of the links have been working. I have also changed the Part 3: Game Planeshift.Userconfig, as recommended by the forums, in just about every way possible without avail. I have reinstalled at least 5 times, each time reinstalling the updater. I am almost positive that the forum does not address this issue because I have read nearly every post.
I have a MacBook with an Intel Core 2 Duo processor, 2.4 GHz, 2GB memory. I have an Intel GMA X3100. I don't think that the graphics card is creating the problems because I cannot even boot the updater, but it can easily run WoW.
Please help me with any advice that can get me playing!
