Help! PC to Mac "Header" issue.

Hi all,

I made a game on my PC for homework, and took it to school, but they only have Macs available. Upon opening up my project, a message appears with something like "Could not open. Couldn't read header", or something to that effect. Is there anyway I could get around this? Is it a different file type? If so can you convert it? Help!

I see. That makes sense. In that case is there any way of getting around that? Or at least downloading an earlier version?

I'd nicely ask whoever runs your Macs at school to download the 1.3.1 update. It's relatively easy to do, so he/she should be happy to help.

Oh and good work on the Save Code thing. I downloaded it yesterday  smile

Re: Help! PC to Mac "Header" issue.

Thanks Ink -- glad you found that useful! I still haven't fully implemented it into the larger game project, so it'll probably get some more tweaks and updates over time.

Good luck with your Mac lab.  smile
