    Added to my TODO !

    Do you remember moving the legacy PAMM manually at some point (I think you did !) ?
    No one should read the EULA, they don't need to know what they are allowing me to do ! mouahahahaha :D

    oh, come to think of it I did. When I switched to the new launcher I moved it to the new install directory to get it working again. Thanks!

    Needs an option to open mods and server mods folder, like the old PAMM had. That made local testing and modification of mods a lot less tedious when you could just open the folder location rather than having to burrow thorough layers of folders to access them.

    The "open folder" feature was broken in Atom Shell some releases ago, it should be fixed now, I will give it another try. In the meanwhile, you can copy/paste the path in your explorer/shell.

    If PAMM can't find your PA, you can start your PA as usual and any mods installed with PAMM should work.

    PAMM doesn't to need to know where PA is located to operate, the "Launch PA" from PAMM is just a "bonus feature". But I'll try to figure out if there is something different between the Steam & PALauncher which break this feature.

    Just tried with Steam, no issue detecting the PA location. But I was just thinking about something, does your Steam path contains some cyrillic characters ?

    Unfortunatly, PA isn't very friendly with non-ascii characters. There is nothing I can do from PAMM to fix that, sorry. If you are able to do it, you should create a dummy account on your system to play PA :\

    I'm no pro with terminal. All I can ever really remember is how to change and list directories.

    Nevertheless I've tried installing this for Mac.

    I tried "sh instal.sh" and "bash install.sh" and a few others.

    I got the following:

    I'm guessing I'm just doing something wrong since I have little experience with terminal.

    Can anyone help me out with this?

    I'd be nice if we could get a dmg. :)

    Did you download PAMM from this link: https://github.com/pamods/pamm-atom/archive/stable.zip ? Because it's like your are trying to install a 2 weeks old version, when I was using exclusively wget, which isn't available on OS/X by default.
    With the last archive, you should be able to run "./install.sh" with success from the extracted folder.

    The download link was fucked up, it's fixed, sorry.

    The installer's not working for me on OSX 10.9.3 - it's trying to use wget which isn't installed, and throwing an error:

    > ./install.sh
    Find last Atom Shell release...
    ./install.sh: line 25: wget: command not found
    ERROR

    Should be able to use cURL to do the same thing, which is installed by default I believe. Unfortunately I don't know enough about shell scripts to fix it - Perl's more my thing ;-)

    [edit] nvm, just saw your reply to Brian - I must've been given an older link!@

    [edit2] In fact it's the author's fault!!! :-D Na seriously - it's the link on the front page. The actual link doesn't match up with the text, and is going to github.com/mereth instead of github.com/pamods

    I don't understand what's going on :/

    https://github.com/pamods/pamm-atom/blob/stable/install.sh

    Line 23 to 28 is supposed to check if the script should use wget or curl. Why it try to use wget on line 25 is beyond me. I need some OS/X user with bash knowledge to check on this because it was working fine with Ubuntu bash.

    Download link was fucked up and targeting an older version. It's fixed.

    I only see 1 UI mod, Show Cheat Servers. I'm assuming there's more- why aren't they showing up?
