Oh because after the second failed attempt to get it to download my flash drive was sudden 'unreadable' like it didn't show up in finder or in bootcamp and when I unplugged and replugged it in, if gave me the option to open it in Disk Utility where I could erase it and reformat it. Also I don't think ever bootcamp told me / gave the option to reformat. Every time I hit an error it would just stop the process altogether. (I mean it might already be included in the steps and I'm just not realizing it?)
Since I got a little bored I did try making a new Admin user on my Mac going back to puzzleaddict's solution
- "If you think you may have a leftover hidden library file that you can't find, or something else that should have been deleted but wasn't, you can always install into a new admin user account. The library files are specific to one account."
I reinstalled Origin through that account (I also noticed apps seemed shared in the sense of that other apps were already accessible through the account, so if I did miss a file or something it probably would cross over accounts?) But puzzle was right about the Library seeming separate so i went through all the steps of just getting TS3 base game including superpatch and all.
The game still got stuck on black screen. :neutral:
how do i even get blackscreen with just the base game seriously /facepalm
I feel like that should be impossible, this mystery problem going across accounts, but maybe at this point I will consider asking a family friend /professional's help. He prob can't help with the TS3 and Origin on my mac side but he did already tell me he knew a few ways to go about putting windows on without BootCamp too. Might not be a while since I have to work around their schedule but I'm hoping if it works I'll be able to post the steps herefor the rare chance some is having this problem, or just optional way to bootcamp I guess.
