AAAAAAGGGGGHHHHH: I have searched for tutorials and it all uses windows and steam or just windows and gog but I use mac so I just dont know how :(
First, copy the
Terraria.app to
$HOME/Desktop.
Then download
tModLoader v0.11.6.2 to e.g.
$HOME/Downloads. Note the "How to Install or Update" instructions.
Extract
tModLoader.Mac.v0.11.6.2.zip. This will contain:
I18N.West.dll
I18N.dll
README.txt
Terraria
libMonoPosixHelper.dylib
tModLoader
tModLoader-kick
tModLoader-mono
tModLoader.exe
tModLoaderInstaller.jar
tModLoaderServer
tModLoaderServer.exe
Highlight all of those files and copy them.
Then browse to
$HOME/Desktop/Terraria.app/Contents/MacOS (e.g. Right-click - Show Package Contents Terraria on the Desktop) and paste them. Overwriting existing files.
The README.txt does note that you may need to add execute permissions once modded:
4. Run Terraria as normal. If it doesn't run, you might need to give execute permissions to 2 files. If so, open a terminal in the install directory and run the following 2 commands:
chmod +x tModLoaderServer
chmod +x Terraria
