OK, sorry for my tardiness, my attention has been in high demand these days.
I’ve worked through some of the known issues and got a script that increases - seems to anyway - launch perfection to 95% on the first try!
So I need everyone willing to give it a go for awhile and provide some feedback. You still have to give a few moments after force quiting, natural quitting, crashing, before trying to run it again, I may have to build that in as well if all goes well on tghis beta run.
This does the ‘kill translated for you’, and then a delay, then it tries to open Zbrush. You can mess with it all you want. NOTE: You must type your system password (root) each time. I didn’t think it fair for me to provide something that might control your system. I’m also giving the script, you must save it, name it and care for it. Make sure you save it as Application Bundle!! Or it will not be Uinversal. I’ve modded this from results of several scripts for about 6 applications trying to run under Intel, it still needs work, but…
Yes, Applications>Applescript?Script Editor…
Paste this in to it…
on run
killtranslated()
delay 6
tell application “ZBrush2” to launch
end run
on killtranslated()
set pid to do shell script ¬
“ps -auxw -U root | grep -i translated | awk ‘{print $2}’”
if pid ? “” then
do shell script "kill -TERM " & pid ¬
with administrator privileges and password
end if
end killtranslated
Truly greatful for this, cause Z runs much nicer under intel OS X
