Solved: 8 Years, 2 Months ago RE: Overture doesn't work (Penumbra Collection)

I also just purchased the Penumbra Collection and am having the same problems.

If I go into the '\Applications\Penumbra Collection' folder and launch 'Penumbra Collection', I get the launcher with the 'Part 1 - Overture', 'Part' 2 - Black Plague' and 'Part 2 - Requiem' icons. None of them work; I click on any of them and nothing launches.

If I click on the 'Overture', 'Black Plague' or 'Requiem' icons located in '\Applications\Penumbra Collection', I consistently get the error message:

"You cannot open the application "Penumbra" because it may be damaged or incomplete."

The same applies if I go into either '\Applications\Penumbra Collection\Overture' or '\Applications\Penumbra\Black Plague' and click on any of the launcher icons there.

Based on your previous suggestion to repair permissions, which from what I read didn't work for others, I repaired permissions using Cocktail 4.4. That did not help.

I'm running a MBP dual-core 2.5MHz 15" with 4Gb RAM with the GeoForce 8600M GT and 10.5.7.

Oh, the other problem I had is that the DMG that came through the download had to be forced to open with DiskImageMounter. The properties associated with the DMG that downloaded, show it associated with TextEdit; I had to manually fix that.

PS: Using NaturalJow's directions on starting Penumbra in a terminal session works. The game launches and plays fine. Just not using the icons packaged with the game.
