@juditee Right, that's normal for the unknown error. Did you try the .sgr edit I suggested? If it doesn't work, we can try another one instead.

@juditee Please do a clean uninstall of the entire game:

Create a new admin user account on your Mac, and install the base game there. Run the Super Patch, and afterwards, edit the two .sgr files as described in Bluebellflora's instructions. Let me know whether it works.
