why is it make a lot of time to share the new way to install C&C in os X mavericks?????
Sorry, is this directed at me? If so I'm afraid I don't really understand your request. Your previous message seemed to suggest that you wanted to know how to install Zero Hour on Mavericks -- the process of installation itself will be identical to previous versions of the OS (just install from the disk, and ensure you apply the latest official patch that includes the update to run on Intel machines). I'm guessing you used the game before, so you already know how to do this.
You then need to follow the instructions I posted.
If you have specific queries regarding my instructions I'm happy to help. But remember that it's been holidays for the last couple of days; so please don't be surprised or complain if people aren't responding quickly to your requests!
Sorry my bad
i posted before about how to install c&c with Mavericks and use open transport. i tried install most of c&c online but it still no work. so my question if is it possible to show how to install all with a video may be on youtube or what kind of web i m going to use first install c&c follow the instruction. but for the instruction believe me i didn't understand. sorry for the english i m a french speaker
Can you upload the OpenTransport.framework. I have trouble getting this file.

Do you have any ideas what could be wrong here?
have you read all instructions ? (rename zero hour.app, load open transport file, create script, etc...

I have placed the framework in the app bundle
Don't forget to rename skirmish.ini to skirmish.old to enable all options (hard army, etc..)
You don't want the whole framework, just the *one* file inside called OpenTransport (that's the dylib, see first paragraph of my original post).
I'm not quite sure I follow this actually. What do you mean by enable hard armies? You PM'ed me saying that this would fix a bug where the skirmish menu doesn't correctly restrict the number of players given a map of a certain capacity (at least, this is the bug I see), but what you post has no effect on this for me.
I'm wondering if the bug you're seeing is different to mine?
Hello,
Sorry about this but can I get some very detailed instructions on doing this. I'm not that smart with computers to understand the code and terminals. I downloaded open transport then named it to "opentransport.framework" and put it in the System/framworks folder. I made a copy of "opentransport" and put it in the Zero hour.app/macos folder. Now I open the terminal app for zero hour in that Macos folder and it just tries to start the game and fails. I can't enter any of the codes in it.
I opened terminal without the zero hour app and typed this
"DYLD_FORCE_FLAT_NAMESPACE=1 DYLD_INSERT_LIBRARIES=/full/path/to/OpenTransport.framework/Versions/A/OpenTransport ./Zero\ Hour"
"no such file or directory"
I don't understand where or how to enter this.
Thanks
Sorry if the following is a bit terse, the forums crashed and gobbled my previous response
1. Delete the copy you put in System. It's not needed, and is just cluttering things
2. You did copy just the one file called "OpenTransport" (NB capitalisation), and not the whole framework? (A 'framework' is really just a directory with other directories in a specific structure.)
3. If yes, follow the remainder of my instructions - the script will take care of getting the paths right assuming you follow my naming suggestions.
When changing the permissions of the file with chmod, remember to "cd" into the correct folder. Sorry if you had in fact done this, but to me it sounds like this might have been causing the error you had in running the command. That, and perhaps you forgot to replace the '/full/path/to/etc.' with the actual path?

Hi Triskelon1488,
From what you posted I can infer the install path, so hopefully the following is tailored to you specifically.
So:
1) Open up Terminal. Don't use it to "open something with", just start it from spotlight or similar. (Or navigate to Applications and double click it). It should just sit there, and should not say '[Process completed]' or anything like that.
2) Copy in the following, then press enter to execute:
Code:cd /Users/money/Games/Command\ \&\ Conquer\ Generals/Zero\ Hour/Zero\ Hour.app/Contents/MacOS/
"cd" means "change directory". The backslashes in the path are necessary to 'escape' the spaces, that is tell the program 'cd' that it should interpret these as part of the path, and not as some other options it needs to process.
This should make the terminal now be pointing at the correct folder. Verify this by typing
Code:pwd
and enter (this means "print working directory"). It should display more-or-less the path you displayed above
3) Now "list" the contents of the directory:
Code:ls -al
(and enter). This means "list the files in the current directory", and "-al" are options that tell it to print some extra details.
4) Look at what it says, and copy it in your reply. It should (hopefully) look something like the following, but don't worry if not
Code:total 78848 drwxr-xr-x+ 5 root wheel 170 23 Dec 04:34 . drwxr-xr-x+ 6 root wheel 204 23 Dec 04:32 .. -rwxr-xr-x+ 1 root wheel 352816 23 Dec 04:21 OpenTransport -rwxr-xr-x+ 1 root wheel 311 23 Dec 04:33 Zero Hour -r-xr-xr-x+ 1 root wheel 40008712 23 Dec 19:05 Zero Hour_bin
Then we'll carry on from there
Ok, I'm following you really close here. This is all way above my head!

I got this when I tried the Zero hour terminal. The zero hour application doesn't start.

Sorry but I'm not understanding any of this. I translated those french instructions and tried those, I'm just not getting it. I know there's two codes that I need to type in.
1. I have "opentransport" straight from the download in the Zero hour.app/macos.
2. I renamed the terminal "Zero Hour" to "Zero Hour_bin" in the zerohour.app/macos folder
3. I can't type any of the codes in the terminal, it starts and fails. I created a textedit and pasted the code on it and removed extension .rtf. It did nothing, I'm lost.
