ThinkTanks Incompatible With OS X Mavericks

[ThatGuySam]

Hey all, I seem to be having an error when playing ThinkTanks on OS X Mavericks. It boots fine but when I go to play the game, the screen cuts to the bottom section and goes to the top of the screen.

My Screen Resolution is 1366x768.
It worked before on OS X Mountain Lion.
I hope somebody knows the answer....

Hope to talk soon

There seems to be a problem with ThinkTanks and Mavericks. Another player updated to Mavericks and is unable to even open the game. I will dig around and see what the issue could be.

Any luck ?

I tested a fresh copy of ThinkTanks from GarageGames and sure enough.. it didn't even start up.

I still have my old version of ThinkTanks that still works "windowed" as it has since Mountain Lion. This setup hasn't changed since upgrading to Mavericks and seems to still be running fine (just played on it today).

Here's the link to the instructions I received previously to make this work:

I would LOVE to find a way to play ThinkTanks fullscreen, but don't see it being possible at the moment. Any clues on a fix on that would be appreciated!

Otherwise, TT still runs with OS X Mavericks!

Good luck Tech Guy!

Urghh I was thinking of making a hackintosh because I cannot stand Windows and this game has some issues in Linux, so this news is kinda disappointing... We really need that darn source code cause god knows how long it will be until this game also doesn't work on Windows.

That's odd. I'm having no problem on my computers. Both my Mini and my MacBook Pro run it fine.

I wonder what your tech specs are if you have issues. Maybe higher end vid cards are an issue or something.

Here's my MBP vid specs:

What are your specs?

I reinstalled a fresh copy of both Mac OS X Mavericks 10.9.2 and ThinkTanks. They are working great now without any hiccups. TT's running full screen and very smoothly.

It works perfectly in OS X Yosemite!
