jackalcoh Posted August 29, 2020 Share Posted August 29, 2020 My install (Island Rum on a MacBook Pro) is stuck on "Scanning." It's been "Scanning" for 30 minutes now. How long should it be "Scanning?" 30 minutes? An hour? Is it bugged? Does it ever end? I don't want to blow it away and reinstall cause I'll lose all my custom costumes.

Manga had to release a few patches tonight, so make sure you are using the latest IR version for your OS. Also, you can back up your custom costumes by copying them to another folder. I do so all the time. Open the coh folder inside the Application folder on your Mac, and there should be a Costumes folder. Just copy that folder into another directory, or your desktop. I also suggest copying the folder that is named after your account, the "data" folder, the PowerCust folder, options.txt, keybinds.txt, and wdw.txt. All of those are customizations you've done in the game. Any Screenshots you've taken will be in the Screenshots folder.

jackalcoh Posted August 29, 2020 Author Share Posted August 29, 2020 I have a very fast MacBook Pro. Maps/Missions load super fast. It's now been stuck on "SCANNING" for 40 minutes now. I don't think it's doing anything. I can't find where this thing installs itself on my Mac... i'm looking... so i can back up the "data" directory.

Manga Posted August 29, 2020 Share Posted August 29, 2020 Bad stuff happens sometimes. If you can't get Island Rum to self-update, download it from https://islandrum.eekstudio.com/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jackalcoh Posted August 29, 2020 Author Share Posted August 29, 2020 It finally finished. Took 40 minutes. Btw- I found where it installs itself. And the Costume are not in "data"... There's a "Costumes" and "PowerCust" folder for each respectfully. It installs itself in /Applications/coh/. $ pwd /Applications/coh $ find . |grep Retro ./Costumes/RetroMagic2.costume ./Costumes/RetroFlame2.costume ./Costumes/Retro Magic.costume ./Costumes/RetroFlame.costume ./PowerCust/RetroFlamePowers.powerCust ./PowerCust/RetroMagic2.powerCust Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jackalcoh Posted August 29, 2020 Author Share Posted August 29, 2020 Just launched Island Rum, and see there's a new patch being installed. I've going to time it this time. I wish there was a way to see the progress of "SCANNING" since you don't know if it's got 20 more minutes left or 40 more minutes left..... And this is a SSD drive so it's super fast hardware.

jackalcoh Posted August 29, 2020 Author Share Posted August 29, 2020 Currently 50 minutes in and still "SCANNING". Wish there was a way to see what percent it was through. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jackalcoh Posted August 29, 2020 Author Share Posted August 29, 2020 (edited) So the screenshot was taken at 11:02 am. It's now 12:48 pm and it's still running...... something tells me this is NOT working correctly. So it's been running for almost 2 hours now.

jackalcoh Posted August 29, 2020 Author Share Posted August 29, 2020 Backing up custom stuff before re-installing: mkdir ~/coh-backup cd /Applications/coh cp -r Costumes ~/coh-backup/ cp -r PowerCust ~/coh-backup/ Confirm it's all backed up: find ~/coh-backup Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Manga Posted August 29, 2020 Share Posted August 29, 2020 If it gets stuck on self-update, just download a new copy at https://islandrum.eekstudio.com/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And I documented that here -> It did finally work... My question is are their good "reinstall" instructions out there? Because I felt like I removed every piece of it I could find, and it still failed to reinstall giving me errors that "Game Client Not Detected."
