Fixed Bugs (3.x) / Re: MacBook: 3.3.2 crash on create blank game

Not an issue.
Just this green newbie didn't know about boot.txt.
I pretty much just expected load and go.

I would highly suggest if Xcode.app is not found,
Tell the user what happened and how to fix it.
That's the friendliest thing you can do.

I might humbly suggest:

Xcode was not found at path: {Xcode.path}
Either install Xcode from The App Store or
Modify boot.txt to point to your Xcode path.
You may use Xcode-select --print-path to find your configured location.

Perfect instructions, thank you.

Let me just make you aware of some potential problems on the Mac side.  As a developer using appcelerator titanium, new releases to Xcode break the appcelerator compiler.  After Apple updates Xcode, I rename that file to Xcode-10.6.app.  I then restore Xcode.app from time machine.  This way I keep the version that coordinates with appcelerator.  When the version of Xcode becomes main stream (at least as far as appcelerator is concerned) I copy Xcode-10.6.app to Xcode.app.  This also allows me to back compile to previous versions.  Which sometimes becomes handy.

My point on saying this is that I have multiple copies of Xcode loaded.  These are currently in ~/applications/dev.  I have moved the primary Xcode to ~/applications.

I will write up a full test procedure and report.

Part of the problem appears to be that I moved all Development Tools including Xcode to an ~/Applications/Dev subfolder.  I just moved Xcode back to ~/Applications and ran 3.3.2.b8449.  Repeated same actions.  No issue now.

I'm also an Appcelerator developer and they also link to Xcode builds.  They've never had an issue with the Dev Folder.

Would suggest a more descriptive end user error like Xcode not found. 

I should have combed the logs better.

It's not Xcode.
Current xCode 6.4 is loaded, still 3.3.2 does not work.
But I have seen this sort of versioning problem when new Xcode gets released.

Was able to get through tutorials with 3.3.0.
Thank you.

Just reporting that this is not an issue in 3.3.0 (b8281).
Creates and builds fine.

Stencyl 3.3.2 on MacBook Pro Yosemite 10.10.4 with Java 8.51
Security: Allow apps downloaded from Anywhere
Dragged the uncompressed zip file into ~Charley,
Execute app from that folder,
allowed the app downloaded from internet.

There's a crash when trying to create a blank game.
Log attached.
