    Copy..

    I have the same problem as the image in the first post, pieces missing from the launcher / no way to log in. First I tried re-downloading, then I tried a different zip extractor, both didn't help. Renaming the file also didn't help.

    Since I'm on a Mac Pro desktop machine, there's no Wifi to turn off. I'm the only user on my machine, and my account is the administrator. So I don't see why it would be a permission issue.

    Anyway, I found that if I launch the application from the command line as sudo, it will work. This is ridiculous and shouldn't be necessary.

    Instructions:
    1. Copy the game into Applications as you usually would do.
    2. Open the terminal and enter the following:
    Quote:
    sudo /Applications/BackToTheFuture101.app/Contents/MacOS/Mac_Game
    3. You will be prompted for your password. After you provide it, the game will launch.

    Thanks, that worked like a charm! For the novice, be sure to re-name the app BackToTheFuture101 or this won't work.
