Solved: 8 Years, 1 Month ago List of stories that will run on mac osx

After downloading many of the extra stories for Amnesia. (from this forum)
I only found 2 that worked.
Can you list all of the stories that will work on Mac osx?

In theory all of them should work. However in practice it seems many of the custom stories are packaged together in "odd" ways and distributed with "bat" files that have to be converted for linux/mac os x use. I have tested several without issues (White night, through the portal, LaCaza)

Thanks for your reply.
I would like to know how to convert them to work with mac osx.
Is there an info page here that shows the steps to do this?
...or could I trouble you on how to do it?
Thanks a lot for your help.

for the most part I just put the files in the right places and then rewrote the "bat" files as a ".sh" file

so instead of
Amnesia.exe config/ttp_main.cfg

I create
#!/bin/sh
./Amnesia.app/Contents/MacOS/Launcher config/ttp_main.cfg

And I put the files in the Amnesia.app/Contents/Resources folder (different if you have the steam version as the files aren't "inside" of the Amnesia.app for steam).

in some places you might have to make sure that paths have "/" instead of "\" in them.

Thanks for the help Urkle.
I'll try this out asap.

You don't put the files in the custom stories folder, but in the resource folder?
...or you mean in the custom stories folder within the resource folder?

Thanks.
