Puzzle Agent 2 - Mac - Frozen Screen

edited July 2011 in Game Support
I just bought "Puzzle Agent 2" tonight for my iMac.

I was able to solve 2 puzzles, leave the agency office, go to Scoggins, arrive outside the hotel. All that dialogue/narration, until he walks into the hotel.

The loading puzzle piece appears at the bottom right of the screen, and then it freezes. Leaving these annoying purple / blue / black lines on my desktop.

Is there something wrong with my game? Or my iMac can't handle the graphics? I have to FORCE QUIT to exit. I was so looking forward to playing it!



I was able to play Puzzle Agent just fine without any errors / crashing.

Not sure what all this means...

    I have Mac OS X Version 10.6.8

    Sorry I can't be of much help since I've never owned a Mac, but here are the Mac system requirements taken from the Puzzle Agent 2 page on Steam (http://store.steampowered.com/app/94590):

    Mac System Requirements

    OS: OS X version Snow Leopard 10.6.3, or later.
    Processor: 2.3 GHz Intel or equivalent
    Memory: 4 GB RAM
    Hard Disk Space: 500 MB Space Free
    Video Card: 512 MB NVidia or ATI graphics card
    Additional: Not recommended for MAC Minis or early-generation MacBooks

    I would try checking out Product Support (http://www.telltalegames.com/support) or e-mailing Telltale directly (support@telltalegames.com) if you don't find a solution to your problem here or in the Game Support sub-forum you mentioned.

    I know how much PC glitches stink, believe me, and I wish you best of luck on getting it fixed (the game is worth it!). Cheers.

    I should have looked at the System Requirements first before purchasing. I don't have enough video ram. :( What a pity, guess I'll try it on my mom's PC lol Thanks for the reply!
