------------------------------------------------------ CompuCell 3D version 3.4.2 for Mac OS X 10.5 (Leopard) ------------------------------------------------------ This is a binary distribution of CompuCell 3D compiled for both i386 (32 bit) and x86_64 (64 bit) systems running Mac OS X 10.5.x (AKA Leopard). Download the file: CC3D_3.4.2_MacOSX105_xxxx.zip (where xxxx are four digits indicating incremental updates) An installer is not required for this version: just double-click the .zip file and place the resulting "CC3D_3.4.2_MacOSX105" directory anywhere you want. A good place is your computer's /Applications/ directory. Or, for example if you don't have administrative-level permissions on your system (such as on a public lab machine), you can simply create a directory called "Applications" in your user/home directory, and place the "CC3D_3.4.2_MacOSX105" directory inside that "Applications" directory. To start the CompuCell 3D player application from the Finder, double-click the compucell3d.command file. The very first time you run it, you may get a system warning "this application has been downloaded from the internet". To run CompuCell 3D from the Terminal, cd to the "CC3D_3.4.2_MacOSX105" directory and type: ./compucell3d.command CompuCell 3D is self-contained: all the required dependencies and third-party libraries are included, such as Qt, PyQt, VTK, etc. CompuCell 3D relies on the Python 2.5 distribution included by default on Mac OS X 10.5 systems. Please note: this distribution will not run on Mac OS X 10.4 or older. For a CompuCell 3D distribution for Mac OS X 10.6.x (AKA Snow Leopard) please check http://compucell3d.org/
