Hi Supermodel forum !

I'm trying to set up program to my Macbook pro - MacOSX - El capitan but I can't because ım super newbie :)
Can someone tell me ? step by step - instructions. really slow ! Im already download ( Build SVN OSX El Capitan and SDL 1.2.15 ) Now ?

I want to play - Cyber Troopers: Virtual On Oratorio Tangram ver.5.4 - Arcade Version for a long time.
I tried many different programs for this - Retroarch, Openemu, Mame, Reicast but a huge zero at the end of the day. I can't play...
This weekend was too long for me. :lol:

Thank you.

Hiya Kristian,

Hopefully I can help! I've copied some instructions I put in another thread for you. Let me know if you need any more detail:

Hi, there's a recent-ish version of the OSX version which you can download from this thread:
http://www.supermodel3.com/Forum/viewtopic.php?f=5&t=1198

I should point out that Supermodel isn't like your standard Mac app, you'll need to use terminal to start it up. It's easy when you know what you're doing, but can be daunting if you're unfamiliar with terminal.

A super quick primer though if you're new to it:
- Unzip the Supermodel version you downloaded from the thread above, and place it somewhere (such as in the Applications folder)
- Open terminal (It's in Applications > Utilities > Terminal)
- You'll need to change the directory in terminal to where Supermodel is located. Type "cd" (without quotes) to change directory and then drag in the location of supermodel into the terminal window. It will automatically put in the location where Supermodel is located. For example, if it's in the Applications folder, drag the applications folder into terminal and you'll see something like "cd /Applications". Press enter to change directory to applications.
- If Supermodel is in that folder you can run it by typing in "./Supermodel game.zip". the './Supermodel' part loads supermodel, and the 'game.zip' part loads whatever game you have. For example "./Supermodel srally2.zip" will load Sega Rally 2, assuming it's in the same folder as Supermodel.
