Hi, I own the cd of Myth TFL.

Just bought a 2016 MacBook Pro with OS 10.12.6 installed. Copied everything from my previous Mac with the migration utility including Myth 1.8.1. Myth launches fine and games open but I can't control units or even select them. Best I can do is do a 'select all' with the return key. Anyone have a solution for this os is Mac OS Sierra the end of the line for Myth?

Seems you're talking about Myth II, not Myth: TFL - given the version number 1.8.1. I have High Sierra too and 1.8.1 seems to work fine. If you're still seeing issues, can you post contents of your myth_log.txt? Also, try clearing your Myth II preferences and restarting your computer. Let us know if any of those work.

Yea, just dropped it into the existing thread coz I was too lazy to make my own. Issues are with both Myth 1.8.1 and 1.8.2 build 437. OS versions are Mac 10.11 and 10.12. Opening Myth causes me to lose mouse control. I have to drop back to the Mac Finder to regain the mouse pointer and then can click back into the Myth start screen and continue. Once starting a game I occasionally can't select units with the mouse pointer but can select 'all' with the return key. The pointer is controllable so not entirely like the no pointer issue at start. This happens almost all the time with 1.8.1 and half the time with 1.8.2

What computer model are you using? Do you use a trackpad or an external mouse? Also, how do you launch Myth - via the Dock, from the Finder, Launchpad, search box?

Can you post contents of your myth_log.txt?
