I've said this soooo many times in bug reports, but I have two problems.

1) The OSX Bug Reporter doesn't work. It's broken. I could crash and it won't open...

2) There is a bug associated with the 7/13/17 station model. I'm normally above the station and the screen freezes and sound loops. Anyone else experience this? It brings down my entire system.

Umm shouldn't this be in the bugs forum?

Umm, could the bug reporter not launch because the computer doesn't work and you have to force restart?

Well, thats how that bug works for me.

Yeah... bugs forum or OS X forum. Nevertheless, I had the same problem the last time I played. Although I remember a1k0n saying that a bug reporter shouldn't automatically pop up after a freeze or whatever, for some reason it did with OS X 10.2.4 or 10.2.5. It took a while for it to happen, but it did. I remember two instances when it did that before version 3.2 of Vendetta. Oh well, who knows. You're always free to use the one on the webpage.

If the OS completely locks, it shouldn't be possible for anyone to start any sort of bug reporting program, because the OS itself has crashed. If you have to restart your computer, it sounds like this is what's happening. The bug reporter was designed to trap crashes and bugs in Vendetta. If the OS goes down, that's an OS-level issue, which is way beyond the level of anything we can either debug or repair. This can happen because of driver-related bugs (ATI/Nvidia), actual Mac OS X bugs, and the like. We do try to notify people, work around bugs and/or get them fixed. However, once things are happening outside the control of our program, the debugging we can do is mostly limited to sending hopeful emails to various responsible companies.

It's kind of like equipping a car with good engine diagnostics, and then dumping the entire car in the ocean. The engine diagnostics won't be doing much for you when the whole car is underwater.

Um. The linux bugreporter doesn't work either. Never has. Only the windows one works. And when I say the linux bugreporter fails, I mean that the game has an error, dumps me back to my desktop and no bugreporter! Sometimes the vendetta executable is still running when this happens, but most of the time not. Ah well.

Probably because the game crashes in the video driver in linux, which isn't able to be caught by the bug reporter. If Vendetta is still running even after it 'crashed' then the bug reporter won't catch it because it only catches sigbus, sigabrt, and sigseg I think.
