Mac Version, instant crash on luanch right after buying on Steam

Hello, i have just bought the Mac version via Steam, and the app is completely unusable, it crashes on launch right away.

This is really frustrating.

I see the main menu screen coming, i hear the music playing, but the game’s mouse pointer is stuck at the top left corner of the screen, and if i move my mouse all i see is a beach ball.
After about 5 seconds, the game crashes.

I am running Mac OS X 10.10.2, below are the computer specs and the crash dump. Somehow it seems to be looking for a method of NSTouch that is not there anymore…

Ok, i did some research, im a mac dev myself, problem seems to be with the 10.10.2 update removing certain methods from the NSTouch class…..

The app works if i dont touch the touchpad, as soon as i touch the touchpad, it crashes.

Other apps like Chromium are having the exact same issue im having

https://code.google.com/p/chromium/issues/detail?id=435407

When can we expect a fix for this ?

And some more debug, the problem is specifically with isResting, which is deprecated in 10.10, and clearly removed from 10.10.2

https://developer.apple.com/library/mac/documentation/AppKit/Reference/NSTouch_Class/index.html

I guess i will have to wait for an update.

Cheers.

Thank you for the research.

Since 10.10.2 is a beta and since the deprecated function is called from libSDL, we’ll wait for the libSDL developers (or Apple) to fix this.

We’re keeping track about the changes.

Sure thing, im aware its beta, but i thought you would be interested to know before it goes public.

Cheers.
