Talking to the experts, this problem could be caused by using a username that already exists.

We are working on a fix for the client to show error messages when failing to create a new character, in the meantime please try a few different usernames and see if that works.

What version of TMW are you using and what version of OSX?

If the user never enters his email address we cannot know what email address to send the key or password to. Email address is stored encrypted so you cant just look it up in the database.

The problem is with decompressing the layer data, not sure why this would not work in 10.3.9.

I will investigate, thanks for the report.

Can you post your tmw.log ?

It's in ~/Library/Application Support/The Mana World

10.3.9 is extremely old and unsupported by Apple, it might be a driver bug.

I tested out the new .29 on an intel mac, and it worked fine, is there any specific action you are doing when it crashes?

Does your tmw.log have anything interesting in it?
