Rise of Nations Gold Edition

Hello all......... having trouble playing this game on my PowerBook, I easily have all the requirements to play it but yet it keeps quitting unexpectedly and its getting annoying... SOMEONE PLEASE HELP!!!

this is the report its giving me...

**snip**

just trying to get help with something.... thanx

PLEASE do not post an entire log file. Save it as a text file, host it somewhere and link to the download.

I dont know of anywhere to host a file

Search on google or check with your host. However no one, and I mean no one will read 3 giant posts of error log.

First thing you might want to try is completely removing the game from your computer. Do a Spotlight search and trash any and every file associated with it without ANY exceptions.
Once you have done that, get out your CD and reinstall it.
You might also want to try repairing permissions.

ok i think i have done it....

The report is in .txt here....

also... I have tried to repair permissions, and a total uninstall of the files and it is still giving me an error.......... really fustrating

This might seem a little silly, but have you cleaned your discs? Make sure that the CD's aren't dirty, pitted or marked in any way and try reinstalling it again.

The disc is perfect... I just recieved it in the mail about an hour ago.... went to install it and as soon as i started the game it did that.... im really pi$$ed.... if i cant get it to work its gonna be a waste of $50......

Okay, let's backtrack a little.
What, exactly, are the specs on your Mac?
Assuming it is newer than the 2004 release of that game, you may need to check with Microsoft's site for some updates perhaps.
Still, posting what exactly you are running might help get to the bottom of this.

Thought I had read somewhere about users experincing problems with OS X 10.4.7 update and Rise of Nations .Apparently its not, its down to a Quicktime update that came out around the same time.

Anywhere here is the post I read hope its of some help.
