islandrum.sh contains problem characters

I just found out the game is back!

I've installed it on my Mac, but IslandRum was unable to start the 64-bit version.

Some other people had reported the same issue already in the Getting Started thread.

 

I looked into it, and found that there were some garbled characters in /Applications/coh/islandrum.sh

It might be a conversion error from Windows?

If I remove the line with garbled errors, so #/bin/sh is on the first line, as it should, then the game starts, IF I make the file read-only. Otherwise IslandRum seems to rewrite it and add the offending characters again.

 

It seems like a small fix, to get people to run it on Mac again. (Which otherwise seems to work fine, I'm level 4 now, and have imported all my characters that I had saved 7 years ago with SentinelPlus.)
