It looks like intel macs use different offsets in the file. Please only use on PPC for now. (update: I haven't tested Rosetta, just a beta of the UB build. Feel free to try with the release app.)
Tribe Selector copyright 2007 by Michael Croft.
This is an unfinished Beta version of the Tribe Selector application for Last Day of Work's Virtual Villagers and Virtual Villagers 2. It depends on those applications an their prefrence files to be of any use to anyone. Please purchase Virtual Villagers from http://www.ldw.com
Tribe Selector resolves problems for households with one mac and more than one user of Virtual Villagers. The application allows a user to select a Tribe, optionally change from full-screened to windowed mode, and launch the appropriate Virtual Viallgers application. It can work with both The Original Virtual Villagers - A New Home and Virtual Villagers 2 - The Lost Children.
Copy the Application from the disk image to your local hard drive, double-click it, select a game and tribe, and cick "Launch"
Because Virtual Villagers has been released through a number of game sites, there are multiple versions in release with different names and different preference locations. I am not aware of every site that has carried these games or the names they've used for it. Those values are hard-coded into the application. If Tribe Selector doesn't work for you, please let me know at dev@whiterose.org
In addition to support and encouragement from the fine folks at Last Day of Work, fellow ldwforums user Borg helped me with the nitty gritty. His Windows Tribe Selector was the basis for this Tribe Selector.
