D&D 4E Mac-friendly 4e Combat tracker?

[turnip]

Does anyone know of a Mac-friendly 4e Combat Tracker? I know RPGTools runs off Java, but I have an older version of OSX (10.4.11) that doesn't support Java 6, which is what RPGTools needs.

Anyone have any luck elsewhere, or should I just pen and paper it?

Or if you want/need to run locally without internet access, simply download all the files at trunk - initracker - Project Hosting on Google Code and place them into the same folder structure somewhere on your system, then just open the local html document.

I downloaded it for my MacBook and it seems to have a lot of features I was looking for, including 2nd monitor support. I haven't tried it in game yet though.

That looks great, but it won't even open on my MacBook. Dunno why; just says that it has quit unexpectedly as soon as I open it.

What about VCC (Virtual Combat Cards) from Exnebula, it works well for me, and the newer version is awesome! Check it out here Virtual Combat Cards D&D 4th Edition Initiative and Combat Tracker | Ex Nebula

Hope it works!

I seriously appreciate the ideas; the problem seems to be that Mac OS X 10.4 does NOT support anything newer than Java 1.5 (Java 5) - all these snazzy programs run off of Java 6.

So...long story painfully short is that I will need to upgrade my OS. Which isn't too bad, seeing as it is two versions old and an upgrade won't be too expensive.

But still...

Hi turnip!

Sad bunnies make me cry!

I am the programmer of 4eTurnTracker, and I would really like to find out why it does not run on your Mac. Firstly, do you have a PPC based Mac? TT currently only runs on Intel machines.

Another problem may be 10.4.

I am building TT on a 10.5 system, so it may be that it depends on libraries that you do not have.

If you can, please try the following (sorry it is all a bit cryptic ):

1. Start the Mac Terminal program (in Applications/Utilities)
2. Enter:

cd /Applications
setenv DYLD_PRINT_LIBRARIES 1
4eTurnTracker.app/Contents/MacOS/4eTurnTracker

Then please send me the output from the Terminal in a private message (or paste in a reply to this thread if it is not too long).

Thanks!

Hey! It's always nice to see how incredible the support is from homebrewers and indie innovators!

All the Terminal is telling me is:
-bash: setenv: command not found

Dunno. It may indeed be a problem with 10.4. Or me.
Likely me.

No not you , your Mac is using a different "shell" to mine, so we need to use a different command.

Please try this:

cd /Applications
export DYLD_PRINT_LIBRARIES=1
4eTurnTracker.app/Contents/MacOS/4eTurnTracker

I get:
