The Wonders of PopMenu ....can this be done on a Mac?

Title pretty well covers it, I was reading about the Popmenu and I am wondering if this can be done on a mac?

Thanx in advance for suggestions/answers.

Looks like it uses a mechanism similar to Vidiotmaps, so it should work.

Okay so it might work, any chance that anyone has used this on a mac? I'm lookin for setup steps if possible. Have to admit I don't know mac very well so any detailed explanation on setup would be greatly appreciated.

I don't know all the steps for actually creating and placing the files, but I can tell you where to put them. It's the same place as in the Vidiotmaps section of my guide (in the signature):

1. Right-click the City of Heroes application and select "Show Package Contents".

2. Open the Contents, then Resources, then transgaming, then c_drive, then either "coh" or "Program Files" and then "City of Heroes".

3. Open or create a "data" folder.

Other than that, you can use Textedit in place of Notepad where they suggest you use it.

So I made it to Resources folder, but could not find transgaming in any form "below" that threshold. There are a bunch of .nib folders but none of them are transgaming. Any suggestions?

I apologize for sounding harsh, but at this point I'm going to have to say it may not be safe for you to change the City of Heroes system files.

I usually only recommend such modifications for people who are familiar enough with the function of the game files to recover themselves from any mistakes (the CoH Guide has warnings to that effect). For those who require very detailed instructions, it's likely they're going to get themselves into trouble that I can't help fix. I can't in good conscience be the cause of that.

If you'd like, you can contact Support and see if they'll send you instructions and take responsibility for any problems.

Okay, after opening the RIGHT package contents I was able to get to the "coh" folder, but there is no "City of Heroes" folder in "coh". There are screenname folders, screenshots, qt_plugins, PowerCust, Piggs, Missions, logs, CustomVillainGroup, Custom_Critter, costumes and cider folders. You are saying there should be a "CityofHeroes" folder there? or maybe I should add that and then the data folder(s)?

I am not stupid, I have done things like this many times, I was just in the wrong folder to start with, and have since gone to the right resources folder. I appreciate the help and just need to know if this is where I should add the folders needed.

Thanx so much, that was exactly what I needed, the proper path. I opened quickchat.mnu and made 2 quick changes and tested them live, and they worked perfectly.

Thanx again, off to do some SERIOUS modification to some .mnu files

I'm glad you got it figured out. Sorry for the abrupt cutoff reply earlier, I didn't want to be responsible for accidentally directing you to break your CoH client so you couldn't play anymore when I wasn't sure if I could fix it from here.
