Sorry if this is in the wrong topic or something. I didn't know where to put it.
So, I've finally ended my quest of getting Byond on my Mac. I used an emulator, and Byond is running! Just a few problems, though.
1. I can't run any games. I did what it said to do if I'm using an emulator. Entered the URL and stuff. Didn't work. Tried something else. I logged in and under my favorites were the games I wanted to play. I clicked 'join.' It gave me the same massage over and over. 'BYOND Central is not accessible.' Anyone have a clue what this means? I am I doing something wrong?
2. I can run Dream Maker, but once I've saved, I can't get the file again. I saved it to my desktop, and it's in a little folder. I opened it, and clicked the file. It gave me some options on what to open my file under. I don't know what to pick, or if anything would actually work. I would pick BYOND, but it's not actually installed on my computer; like I said, I'm using an emulator. Any help?
I'd really appreciate if someone could help me. I had been using BYOND on a VERY slow and old Windows laptop. It's a hassle because it takes about 10 minutes for the computer to start up, and like I said, it's extremely slow. Any help would be much appreciated. Thanks.

This Linux guild is very confusing... plus I don't have Linux so it's really quite confusing as most of the things there are about Linux not Mac. :(

I fear that there is no easy (mainstream) solution for what you request, because there simply is no user-base for something like that. But I'm rather confident that if you compile a posting at their forum and provide all the information they need, you're going to get a decent response.

Okay, I'll try it later today.

We don't really support Mac, mostly because I've never worked with them.
Another solution would be to run BYOND via a VM using Virtualbox. |

No, I'm not saying that, there's a few people that post on the Linux Guild, and if they have advise on OSX please feel free to post such information.
I'm just saying when I first developed the guild it was meant for Linux specifically, I certainly wouldn't mind the guild branching out to OSX if people were there to support it. |
Thank you in advance.
