otterlyspicy 0 Posted June 29, 2017 Report Share Posted June 29, 2017 I recently purchased the Mac version of President Infinity. So far, everything seems to run perfectly in the general election. However, when playing in the primaries, the entire game will just close. It usually takes about 30 minutes or so of game play and then it just shuts down, usually as the week is progressing and you're waiting to see the news stories and all...occasionally the game will close while making an ad as well. I have no idea how to fix this. Could it be as simple as requesting a redownload? Are there any known fixes? It's incredibly frustrating and makes it essentially unplayable.

Re-downloaded - problem is still persisting... only took me to the second round this time before it just completely closed. I wanna play for hours! But it won't even let me play for minutes without me having to restart it five times for each round and continue from the auto saved game. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Try to use a virtual machine, and use windows, then you can play a PI version for windows Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I was hoping to find a fix for the Mac issue, however it seemingly won't be fixed any time soon. I have never used a VM before, so I would appreciate that! Quote Link to post Share on other sites

admin_270 845 Posted June 30, 2017 Report Share Posted June 30, 2017 @otterlyspicy Can you confirm the version number (right side of Start Screen), and your macOS version? I have been spending the last several days fixing bugs for Mac. In the meantime I recommend saving periodically. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

admin_270 845 Posted June 30, 2017 Report Share Posted June 30, 2017 @NYrepublican That's appreciated as a temporary workaround, but forcing Mac users to install a Windows VM isn't a satisfactory solution in my opinion. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Posted June 30, 2017 Report Share Posted June 30, 2017 @admin_270 well it's a pre-installed image but I know what you mean. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
