I'm using the Mac version of the Myth II 1.5 installer. It doesn't work when I try to install it off the CD. When I get to the installation bar screen it says"Installation Failed." When I just install Myth II and then use the 1.5 installer it doesn't install the Play Myth plugins. Can someone help me wih this?

To get the PlayMyth plugins just click the server button and choose one of the PlayMyth options and you will be ready to go.

As for the full installer failing if you could post the installer log here that would be helpful to the installer programmer to figure it out.

When you say click the server button are you talking about the one in the updater because if so that is what I had been trying before. And as for the installer log, how would I post it here?

The server button on the multiuser login screen, which probably says bungie net at the top. I think you can copy and paste the installer log or save it to file and then copy and paste it here.

Yeah, that button also shows no Play Myth server. And the installer log:

Ok, now I just decided to use the manual installer. But now, instead of not being able to get on Play Myth every game is incompatible and its name is red. When ever I try to join a game it says "Game Data Does Not Match" or soemthing along those lines. I downloaded from his website so it doesn't quite make sense.

Yeah, what lank said. Launch Myth, quit it, open the Myth_log file in your Myth folder and copy/paste what's in there here. That will tell us what's missing.
