Migrating to a new Mac - cameronhills - 01-03-2009

Hi there,

I am moving from a PPC to Intel Mac. Just dragging my Penumbra Overture folder to the new Mac works but I lose all my saved games. How do I move the app and keep all my saves?

Thanks in advance,

Cameron

You move the Frictional Games folder located in ~/Library/Preferences as well

Thank you for your quick reply Jens, which worked, of course!

Jens, the migration worked in terms of finding all the saves, but the temporary Mac I'm using may be not powerful enough to run the game which quits while loading.

I am using a MacMini, 1.8GHz Core2 Duo with Intel GMA950 graphics and 1GB RAM running OS 10.5.6

Any advice?

Thanks for your time, Cameron

Ah, sorry to say but the game can't run on a GMA950, for intel graphics you'll need at least X3100.
