Hi everyone,
My game Cap4Hold wasn’t working on Macs (so much for Java’s lauded cross-compatibility) I don’t have access to one and the deadline for fixes is fast approaching so could you all test it out for me and let me know whether you run into problems?
The game:

I put a Jar version on this site in case it’s a problem with the website or the build:

Thanks in advance!!
The good news is your jar works on my powerbook G4 (PowerPC OSX10.4 Java 1.5)
Unfortunately, it doesn’t work with the Java4k site due to some problem with the way the site delivers pack200 files. So I get a class not found with your entry (and most of the others including mine).
My suspicion is that even new macs with Java 1.6 are likely to have problems as I believe the mac browser plugin is similar to the old sun plugin, not the new plugin2. I could be wrong and watch this thread with interest to see if any mac owner has any success.
I’m on a Mac running OS 10.6. The applet loads and prompts me to push P or 2, but when I do, the black prompt screen remains and covers up most of the game.
I’m glad to hear the jar works,
Thanks for trying it out!
