Copied from another section of the forum. Original post by sparcdr.
I wanted to make all aware that I have a workable release candidate for Mac users. If you've already downloaded the generic package, you may download the skeleton bundle from:
* Note: this is a release candidate not a final version, but should be advertised as being supported and may be mirrored. It is based on SVN revision 216 (Committed fixed matched in 218) of the 1.1 branch and not the 1.0 branch. The content is identical to the contents of the generic zip, minus the png and exe, with pk3 files from baseq3 and smokinguns directories merged into
Code:
Smokin' Guns.app/Contents/MacOS/smokinguns
as required due to layout needs.
If it goes well it will be marked as a release, and will be uploaded to FilePlanet, otherwise we'll have to fix any outstanding issues. I only note three bugs (Two caused by code) being:
Resolution is off because most modern Mac systems have 16:9 or 16:10 widescreen. Make sure you've launched Smokin' Guns at least once, and change in
(Edit with TextEdit, TextMate, BBEdit, etc.) as noted at http://www.smokin-guns.net/viewtopic.php?t=669. It should override what's specified in the master .cfg files (Which copy themselves so you can change settings to the above Users directory)
On occasion you may get a q3console warning about buffering the sound stream, but it doesn't seem to affect anything.
The other issue, pretty minor, is botlib.log shows up in /Applications for some reason.
If you use the skeleton app bundle, you will need to copy .pk3 files from the generic zip or a previous 1.0 installation into the above noted directory, which is accessible by performing a ctrl + click on the Smokin' Guns bundle extracted from the skeleton zip and navigate into
Code:
Contents/MacOS/smokinguns
moving or copying the pk3 files there.
To make sure you're running widescreen, drop down the console and page-up to the top.
Have a good May!

Oh. I had no idea this was available. The link was dead, but I removed RC1 from the adress, and it found a file called Smokin_Guns_1.0.dmg!
Takes forever to download so I can't finish it tonight though.
How come it's not posted in the downloads section?

Since in 2010 I don't see it mirrored, even on the main downloads section, I'd like to see Huge Laser host it if you'd be much obliged to ask. (Or do yourself)
Open disk image and drag into Applications, right click Show Contents, navigate into Contents/MacOS, extract zip archive and move two .ub files over the top of the old ones to update to current executable.
This is not beta4, but that's as easy, you extract and ignore all folders except smokinguns inside, move the .pk3 and .cfg files into (Replacing) Contents/MacOS/smokinguns in the Smokin' Guns.app bundle.

That might help because every time I try to do what you said the application won't start while giving the explanation "You can't open the application Smokin' Guns because it may be damaged or incomplete."
