I downloaded oolite 1.77 on my mac 10.6.8.
It crashes at start up.
What can be the problem?!
My old 1.73.4 version starts and works.
Here the mac log:

The crash happens in the sound part of the code, so it is probably specific for the mac. I have no clue for that part of the code. Or maybe the Vorbis libraries are not linked correctly into the project. I see the library name red in my compiler, but on the other hand does it work without problems for me.

If that is the fault, you can't do anything. But than probably every user has the problem so I am not sure what is the problem.

Probably not a missing library as the current mac release is compiled on my laptop under 10.7. There the libraries look good. It no longer compiles on my 10.6 mac and that was the one I noticed the libraries marked in red.That older version of XCode can't compile the current code anymore, when might the cause it looked bad to me.
But, I also use this Oolite build mainly on OS 10.6.8 and see no issues. So I wounder what is the difference.

as the crash log of pescenaufrago shows, we are talking about the same crash. You both are using the same system. Although I also use 10.6.8 and never had problems. That makes it difficult as other parts of the OS system also interfere in the bug. It happens on initialising the sound. I've never looked at the sound code and currently have no clue were to look. And specially because its a bug that not happens on all similar systems.
I hope Ahruman finds time to look at it, because he probably is the only one with knowledge about the sound code on the mac.

I get the same crash with 1.77, so I reverted to 1.76.1 (which works fine) - Intel iMac OSX 10.8.2
I didn't want to mention it, because I assumed that someone would be fixing this rapidly.
Could someone please fix this rapidly.

I don't get a crash with the 1.77 test version on OS X 10.6.8. Are the crashes happening with the deployment version or the test version? Perhaps this could point to a problem between the two versions.

As a datum, I'm running OS 10.7.latest and 1.77. I've had one random crash in the middle of a furball, and twice a Coriolis station has been somehow fucked on approach: the first time it appeared to start spinning remarkably quickly, and the second the decoration around the docking port seemed to have closed in, a little like the shutter on a camera. In neither case was I able to dock successfully!
I've been playing it reasonably full on for the last two days as I've been off sick, but I'm back at work now so can't destruct test quite as thoroughly. Still, while those three niggles were a tad annoying (I 'lost' maybe 12 kills and a few thousand Cr in captured cargo) this version is pretty darned good.
I'll upload a log if it happens again.

I installed the "Latest edition" from this
page.

That would be the deployment version. Eric has the test version like me, I assume.

Both versions are compiled on my OSX 10.7 laptop. And both run correct on both my 10.6.8 machines.
The nighties are compiled elsewhere, but I suspect they behave the same. You could check it though by downloading them from
the nighties page. This will give the version with the latest bugfixes. At least until we start with 1.78, than new features
and new bugs will be added.
EDIT: I also started Oolite with the OSX 1.6.8 mac in Guest Account. That will be the same as a virgin install without any oxp (because I put all my oxps in the user area) and with all settings to default.
