Windows Translation For Mac

[Xerces]

Any idea how this process could be performed on a mac? I know Activity Monitor gives some info about the processes that are running, but I don't see any form of a command line like Windows has. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

====================================================

Open Process Explorer and find the process for the game - it should be javaw.exe or java.exe - and right-click it, then select Properties.

Select and copy the contents of the Command line box - most of it is probably off-screen, but you can use the Select All option in the right-click menu.

Open Notepad and paste it all there, add "start " at the begining (without the quotes), and a new line (Enter) at the end. (just type start, press space, press Ctrl-V, press Enter)

Save it as "SK.cmd" in your game folder - make sure Notepad didn't add a TXT extension, rename if necessary.

Finally, make a shortcut to this file on your Desktop or wherever you wish and try it out.

The Mac doesn't work like that.

If you want a shortcut Command - Option drag the Icon.

Not an actual shortcut, but a command file that contains the contents of the command line. I found the java process in terminal, and created a .command file out of it. When I execute the shell though, it doesn't launch the game, even if it is in the game folder.

/System/Library/Java/JavaVirtualMachines/1.6.0.jdk/Contents/Home/bin/java -classpath /Applications/Spiral Knights.app/Contents/Resources/Java/./code/config.jar:/Applications/Spiral Knights.app/Contents/Resources/Java/./code/projectx-config.jar:/Applications/Sp iral Knights.app/Contents/Resources/Java/./code/projectx-pcode.jar:/Applications/Spi ral Knights.app/Contents/Resources/Java/./code/lwjgl.jar:/Applications/Spiral Knights.app/Contents/Resources/Java/./code/lwjgl_util.jar:/Applications/Spiral Knights.app/Contents/Resources/Java/./code/jinput.jar:/Applications/Spiral Knights.app/Contents/Resources/Java/./code/jutils.jar:/Applications/Spiral Knights.app/Contents/Resources/Java/./code/jshortcut.jar:/Applications/Spiral Knights.app/Contents/Resources/Java/./code/commons-beanutils.jar:/Applications/ Spiral Knights.app/Contents/Resources/Java/./code/commons-digester.jar:/Applications/S piral Knights.app/Contents/Resources/Java/./code/commons-logging.jar -Xdock:icon=/Applications/Spiral Knights.app/Contents/Resources/Java/./rsrc/ui/icon/desktop.icns -Xdock:name=Spiral Knights -Dcom.threerings.getdown=true -Xmx256M -XX:+AggressiveOpts -XX:SoftRefLRUPolicyMSPerMB=10 -Djava.library.path=/Applications/Spiral Knights.app/Contents/Resources/Java/./native -Dorg.lwjgl.util.NoChecks=true -Dsun.java2d.d3d=false -Dappdir=/Applications/Spiral Knights.app/Contents/Resources/Java/. -Dresource_dir=/Applications/Spiral Knights.app/Contents/Resources/Java/./rsrc -Dkongregate=true -DkongregateName=XXX -DkongregateId=XXX -DkongregateAuthToken=XXX -Xmx512M com.threerings.projectx.client.ProjectXApp

It contains all of my correct info, but even typing "start" without quotes at the beginning of the command file doesn't launch the game.

Right now I'm sifting through the Java class files trying to find out where it inserts this info according to the Developer's readme they included with the Getdown file portion of the game.

# Parameters passed to the JVM (Java Virtual Machine)
jvmarg = [mac os x-x86_64] -d32
jvmarg = -Xmx256M
jvmarg = -XX:+AggressiveOpts
jvmarg = -XX:SoftRefLRUPolicyMSPerMB=10
# jvmarg = -XX:ErrorFile=%APPDIR%/hs_err.log
jvmarg = -Djava.library.path=%APPDIR%/native
jvmarg = -Dorg.lwjgl.util.NoChecks=true
jvmarg = -Dsun.java2d.d3d=false
jvmarg = -Dappdir=%APPDIR%
jvmarg = -Dresource_dir=%APPDIR%/rsrc

Isn't there someway to just add that code into the .plist since that contains the launch parameters for the game?
