Important Notice: It is extremely difficult to test Kartik on all existing Macs. Even though Kartik has been extensively tested on Mac, it remains nevertheless experimental.
Requirements
- macOS 10.10 Yosemite or newer
- Intel Core 2 or other 64-bit CPU, Apple Silicon is not supported
- 700 MB of free RAM
- 1 GB of free disk space
- GPU supporting OpenGL 2.0 or later
- Bash 3.2 or newer
Download
On the download page, download either Kartik Stable or Kartik EAP. Make sure you select the macOS version.
Install
Decompress the .tar archive you downloaded in a new folder. Open a terminal, and go the corresponding directory (cd /full/path/to/the/directory
), allow executing programs (chmod -R +xr *
) and launch kartik-mac.sh (./kartik-mac.sh
). Make sure you run kartik-mac.sh and not kartik.sh, or you will launch an incompatible version.
If this install updates an older version of Kartik, the older version won't be uninstalled. The older version may stop working after you used the new version.
Profit
After starting kartik-mac.sh, the game starts and open normally. You will be warned at the game start if a new version is available, and will need to redo these steps if there is.
