    This build has servers in: US Central, EU West, Australia

    Look for:
    - NEW client instability (Call out old stuff, but if you're seeing a bunch of brand new crashes, call it out!
    - Graphics problems that weren't there before
    - UI weirdness
    - Mac and Linux folks: Please hop in and try this build. Really need the eyes on it. Should be a lot more playable, or in some cases, playable period.

    PLEASE disable all mods before starting testing. You can incrementally add em back, but any bug report is invalidated if you have mods that haven't been verified as functioning - there are UI changes across the board. Not visually, but in terms of how the panels operate.

    MacOS issues (so far) on 10.9.4
    • camera with pole lock is stuck looking at north pole
    • camera down arrow disabled!
    • reconnect always fails (spin then timeout)
    • command key still not mapped so no copy / paste
    Crashes
    • invalid pointer dequeued from free list: crom::Material::setVec(zu::StringRange, zu::Vec4<float> const&)
    • crashupload is still missing the execute bits
    Coherent
    • lots of Internals of CFAllocator not known; out-of-memory failures via CFAllocator will not result in termination. http://crbug.com/45650
    No coherent crashes

    That was one of the fixes, yes.

    Thanks for the other bug reports! Had seen the down arrow problem, but the others are new.

    Is there a list of command line options for the MacOS launcher that we can use to enable additional logging?

    eg coherent trace to a file.

    Well. I was able to start a game, but PA crashed as soon as I tried rotating the camera.

    I'll poke around more with it later.

    Nope. Brand stinkin new Mac Pro. I used to have an old iMac. But my new computer is a top of the line powerhouse. I think I may be one version behind on OS X, but that's 'bout it.

    Are you fully patched, even if you're on 10.8? 10.8.5 I believe, maybe 10.8.6 now.

    Well, you're almost up to date. I'd get patched to 10.9.3, and see if you have any better luck. That's the latest patch for Mavericks.

    Yeah. I know I'm a patch behind. But restarting my computer? That'd mean I'd have to step away from it for a few minutes. I don't know if I could handle the stress... I'll have to hold my phone close to make it through the trying times...

    I found something really weird... I killed an AI commander... and he proceeded to smash his planet into me in the throes of the afterlife. Is this intentional? Also, he waited quite a while with finished halleys...

    Are you positive you weren't using shared armies with multiple commanders or some such?

    Otherwise, that shouldn't happen - we don't have alternate win conditions yet.

    So it was! Updating on my personal MBP to see if it impacts anything.
