Re: Problem installing TORCS on Mac OS X

Hi

Where did you download it, on the TORCS-Site we have just an old 1.2.4 
version? The 1.2.4 Version was built for PPC and requires Rosetta, which 
was stipped out of Mac OS X in version 10.9 or 10.8, so this cannot work 
anymore on newer versions of Mac OS X.

Here you can find a quick and dirty guide to build TORCS 1.3.6 on Mac OS 
X: http://www.berniw.org/trb/forum/showthread.php?topicid=3968
(5th post in the thread or so).

Kind regards

Bernhard
