You have to take cd ~/Downloads/TSO_Installer_v1.1239.1.0 (just delete .zip from the end). Then it works!
I installed everthing and followed all the instructions step by step without any error but when i wanted to execute freeso.command or freeso3d.command, i got the answer "command not found". Does somebody know what might be the reason? (What I made but don't stand in the instructions: I renamed the client-746 folder as "FreeSO" and used it like described in the last point as "my FreeSO folder") OK no no no no! I have to correct myself: Everything worked fine until the end! I just got what I did wrong! For everybody who will make the same mistake: You have to move the shell data (with the name "freeso.command" or "freeso3d.command") out of your FreeSO folder into the terminal and enter!! Thank you very much for the instruction to play FreeSO on Mac!
YES. I agree on these little details in the instructions aren't there and I had to go through the same process. 1. Delete ".zip" off the "(ex. cd ~/Downloads/TSO_Installer_v1.1239.1.0.zip)" when changing directory. 2. Rename the folder "client-746" to "FreeSO". 3. To launch "freeso.command" use '~/Documents/Freeso/freeso.command' or '~/Documents/Freeso/freeso.command' for 3D (without quotes). Can't wait to have an .app to launch from. For some reason joining properties seems to have gotten pretty difficult. I'm getting "reconnecting to lot server".
macOS Catalina (10.15) was released today. I'll probably wait a bit longer before upgrading my computer, but please share any difficulties you experience and workarounds you find. EDIT: Just updated and can run the game without issue. If you use --arch=32 to run the game it will no longer work (32-bit support has been deprecated as of Catalina). I don't have a clean install of macOS without a developer environment so I'm not sure what potential hurdles fresh installs may come across when installing FreeSO's dependencies under Catalina. EDIT: Some new notes. You may need to find the .dylib files before running and right click them and click Open to bypass the new Notarization stuff.
What does this mean? ~ Seanin$ cabextract -d ~/Documents/The\ Sims\ Online Data1.cab -bash: cabextract: command not found
Looks like the Terminal can't find cabextract in your path. If you know you installed it for sure using Homebrew. Close the Terminal window and open a new one, run cd ~/Downloads/TSO_Installer_v1.1239.1.0 and then the cabextract command again.
Is there someone who can walk me through this? It feels so complicated and I thought I installed home-brew but I can't do anything past that.
Thank you so much, I can finally play again! I don’t know how I was able to get it working, but it works! ❤️
I got it working today! If anything needs any help feel free to ask me, it took awhile but I made through all the steps! I can’t wait to play.
hey i did all of those but im unable to download this link http://servo.freeso.org/viewLog.html?buildTypeId=ProjectDollhouse_TsoClient&buildId=lastSuccessful&buildBranch=<default>&tab=artifacts&guest=1
This is also broken for me. Even on the main page when you look at available builds it's a broken link.
Hello! I've been working on the Mac version of my launcher. Hopefully I can release it soon. I'm testing on Catalina. I have a question about the freeso.command in the macextras. Would it be possible to pass down the arguments to the script? This way the launcher can append its own. Code: #!/bin/bash cd -- "$(dirname "$0")" if [ -f "PatchFiles/patch.zip" ]; then rm "PatchFiles/patch/" -r cd PatchFiles unzip patch.zip -d patch/ rm patch/PatchFiles/ rm patch/MonoGame.Framework.dll rm patch/MonoGame.Framework.xml cd ../ rsync -a PatchFiles/patch/ . rm PatchFiles/patch.zip rm PatchFiles/patch/ fi mono FreeSO.exe $@ I added $@ after mono FreeSO.exe which appends all the arguments passed when running the script. A little preview:
SIM - I sure hope you get it to launch on a Mac running Catalina. All the steps to get it running (maybe) on a Mac are a bit much for a lay person. The last thing I want to do is mess up my computer! It sucks having to run FreeSO on the laptop I bought from my son! LOL I want to run it on my own computer - MAC!
