Oh Bollocks. [SOLVED]
13 years ago
Upgraded my OS to Mountain Lion recently.
Went to boot up my animation program, Pencil, for the first time since the upgrade.
I have just discovered that the upgrade has basically rendered my OS incompatible with the application. Lines only appear until I end the stroke, then vanish. Saved projects do not open.
It's dead, Jim. :|
... Now what? :/
If anyone knows of any good cheap or free animation programs for Mac OSx, I'd be much obliged for the lead.
Anyone who wants to say anything akin to "get a PC, lol," please, just don't. That nonsense has officially pierced clean through "unhelpful" and breached the realm of "obnoxiously stale." Less obnoxious but just unhelpful are "sorry, I can't help you" comments. Again, please, forgo them.
EDIT:
Just purchased Digicel Flipbook Lite. It's not too expensive, and it gives me everything I'll need, likely more reliably than Pencil ever did. :3

hope these help you reed. and sorry if they're not good ones, i don't know much about mac or these software programs, i just started Google searching some for you. x.x;
You could look for an older version, CS4 or lower, they're all pretty much the same and in stores which still sell them (and maybe you even catch a students-version) you may get it
for a very good prize. Depends on what you regard as cheap though, and I have no idea how good the chances are to find a mac-version.
I saw some CS2 students-stuff for 120$ for Windows already somewhere, so yah.
Adobe also has a fully functional trial-version, because it's worth testing to see if it's what you can work with. :>
Hope that helps a bit. :3
(also a Mac is as much a PC as a windows-PC is, but I shut up now :X )
