No, no error. It would just load up this black screen with yellow text giving the path for the .gcm file (on my desktop), the graphics card, processor, and some other hardware things on my computer. The entire program then proceeds to quit, giving a "Dolphin quit unexpectedly" error from the operating system. No error from Dolphin, the program just crashes.

than there is a possibility that you can in fact use dolphin......have you tried using my tool (link in my signature, and you will need nvidia cg toolkit and xcode)

As far as I am aware I have a pre-compiled version of Dolphin on my computer, but I'd be willing to try your tool. However... I'm coding illiterate, so would you mind explaining exactly what I have to do, and how to do it? I'm running 10.6.6.

there is a set of instructions in the wiki but if you need more help i can write an easier to follow version

[stumptown]

Hey Shawnanstasio, if you could write an easier to follow version that would be great. I guess you could say I'm somewhat of a noob but I seem to be picking things up pretty well. Thanks, your help is very much appreciated.

I thank you greatly for this description but... it's not working. Here's a screencap of my various attempts to remedy it in Terminal. But... what am I doing wrong?

you have to replace the "Downloads" part with your download directory and you also must unzip the file that you downloaded by clicking on it

Yes yes I did, that's why I've tried with the desktop directories and such. The file is unzipped, too, it's in a folder. The .pl file is in a folder in that folder, which is in turn on my desktop. So the directory would be
C:\Users\Me\Desktop\Dolphindownloader\Dolphindownloader\dolphindown.pl
That's what isn't working. Unless I need to use the full file directory, including the C:\Users\Me part.

That didn't work either - still getting the error that the file doesn't exist.

no, in mac C: dosent exist.....simply go to ur desktop and in finder navigate to dolphindown.pl and in terminal type "perl" (no quotes) than space than drag the dolphindown.pl from finder to terminal after perl and hit enter...that should do the trick
