Yep, this makes no sense to me at all.  It's like trying to talk to your mum about computer games or explaining a scientific concept to someone who has NO background information AT ALL.

"6. In Terminal, go to the directory where you un-tarred the linux build. In the directory with the executable, type: mono Dyson.exe"

What?



Is there any chance someone would post a solution for people who have no concept whatsoever of what terminal is, or any programming knowledge full stop?  The directory with the executable?  What?

What would be especially helpful is if you guys would use the information presented here and post a mac version  :D

Dude.. read. Use the internet. Wikipedia. Google. Learn. WIN :D
I'm not trying to be rude: So, what of the following is so incomprehensible exactly?


--- Quote from: cem on March 31, 2009, 01:20:40 AM ---Install Mono, download the frameworks linked above (they are folders called SDL_item.framework) and copy those folders into /Library/Frameworks. Then open Terminal APPLICATION (OS X's command line interface), it should be located in /Applications/Utilities, and navigate to your Dyson Folder. This would look like this, if you had Dyson on your Desktop:

localhost:~ user$ cd desktop
localhost:~/desktop user$ cd dyson
localhost:~/desktop/dyson user$ mono dyson.exe

The commands are almost similar to DOS. To navigate you will need cd FOLDER or cd .. To view the content of a folder type ls

macpack?? Nice! Thanks for the tip d0k!  :)

--- Code: ---cd [dyson folder]
macpack Dyson.exe
cp -r Resources *.dll *.config Dyson.app/Contents/Resources

--- End code ---

macpack is installed as part of mono. It creates "Dyson.app" with a mono loader. Just double click on it in finder to play :)

Edit: it looks like the color chooser is only available in 1.10, not in 1.09. Make sure you've got the correct version or you'll never see it ;)

maledyris:
If you were able to follow the instructions up to the point where Terminal was mentioned, you're in pretty good shape. Unzip the dyson120-linux.zip file and put that folder on your desktop.
Now open up Spotlight (press Command-Space or click on the magnifying glass in the top right of your screen) and type Terminal. It will likely be the top hit in Spotlight. Once the Terminal window is open, carefully type the non-bold parts on each line of cem's reply #8, pressing the return key after each line. If you're able to do that, the game should start after you finish typing line 3. Make sure the part after cd on line 2 matches the name of the dyson folder you unzipped.
Just to be clear, these 3 lines are:

cd desktop
cd dyson120-linux
mono dyson.exe

Good luck, let us know if you succeed.

I've uploaded my bundle (from the linux 1.20 build):
Download (sorry for the hoster, don't have a real webspace at the moment)

You still need to install mono and copy all the SDL frameworks to /Library/Frameworks (as descripbed by maledyris and cem). But then you can start Dyson without even knowing what a terminal is :D
