As discussed elsewhere, distributing a full .app for the Cool VL Viewer on OSX is a bad idea - so the GC is building a way to do what Henri does in Linus: an overlay (diff) distribution that only contains what is different from official LL Snowglobe. The idea is that the end-user has the official LL Snowglobe viewer (or downloads it) and then the overlay installer creates a full Cool VL Viewer from the diff package and the Snowglobe files.
This allows the Cool VL viewer to use certain libraries that an independent TPV developer can't legally distribute (mainly the KDU lib)
As we are doing this for Mac OS X, a simple bash script t be run in a terminal wouldn*t catch the Roadrunner, the coyote created a double-clickable little app the will create a full Cool VL Viewer. Plus, it will also download the Snowglobe DMG from LL for you if you don*t already have it.
So here we go:
Please download this ZIP
http://dl.dropbox.com/u/417929/CreateCo ... 21.app.zipUnpack it, and find in it the actual 'installer* called
CreateCoolVLViewer126021(.app)
If you double-click this app it should pop open a console window where you can see what it's doing. Once it's done, it will open a Finder window with the resulting complete Cool VL Viewer app highlighted. Move this one anywhere you usually would (e.g. Applications folder) - Done!
Note: if you have the Snowglobe Installer DMG you can put it in the same folder as the CreateCoolVLViewer126021.app and it wil use it (no need to download this twice)
That's more explanation than is really needed, it should all be very simple. Download, unpack, run, done.
What I need you to do is to simply try it and report here if it works as intended.
Tell Tall Tails,
