The error report says this:

Dyld Error Message:
Library not loaded: @executable_path/libSDL-1.2.0.dylib
Referenced from: /Applications/games/Unreal Tournament 2004.app/Contents/MacOS/Unreal Tournament 2004
Reason: image not found

Google found some people with the same problem, but no solution.
So here is the solution for all you out there with the same problem ;-)

After trying various things, fixing permissions, etc. I finaly found the solution.
I copied the library (libSDL-1.2.0.dylib) mentioned in the error message to /usr/local/lib and voilà, ut2004 runs again.

Open a console, go to the folder where your "Unreal Tournament 2004.app" is, then copy the library file:

sudo cp Unreal\ Tournament\ 2004.app/System/libSDL-1.2.0.dylib /usr/local/lib

Von dem "Google Map Of" Script hatte ich mir eine Kopie angefertigt die local.ch verwendet. Dieses habe ich jetzt noch ein wenig verfeinert und online gestellt unter "Local.ch Address Book Plugin". Long live applescript ;-)

• good compatibility with my main operating system: mac os x

It's about time to update my blog, cause I'm back in switzerland since moren than one week!
My flight from Sydney left late what messed up the whole flight plan and the connecting flight in Singapur was already gone. In the end i flew over Frankfurt instead of Paris and luckily arrived no later than originaly planed, hurray :)

I enjoyed my last station - Sydney - very much. It's a magnificient, living city with lots to see & do. Unfortunately I couldn't stay longer.

Now I'm enjoying the conveniences of settledness. No 8hrs drive a day, my own bed and i don't have to live out of my suitcase - ah :)
Some of the other things I missed:

• good cheese
• real bread
• good pizza (without ketchup but with real tomato puree)
• long showers

Overall it was a very good, enjoyable experience and I could handle all glitches and most was running smoothly anyway.
And to all you new people I've met - have a good time and I hope I see the one or the other again some day.

I crossed half of australia since I left Cairns.
From Cairns I started travelling together with my mate Serge who made it at the last minute on our plane to Darwin. "Just in time" as he says.

From darwin we went to the kakadu national park. On our croc boat cruise we even saw a croc eating another animal which looked very spectacular.

Later we drove from darwin to alice spring in a rather uncomfortable bus. On the journey we bathed in hot springs, visited the devils marbles (big round rocks laying around in the middle of nowhere). Now we've experienced "the real outback" which mainly consists of nothing. Big landscapes of dry gras, small bushes, cattle stations as huge as switzerland, small villages with a population changing from 2,3 people (wetseasen, summer) and around 12 in the dryseason (winter).

So now we are in Alice Springs and continue tomorrow to Uluru (Ayers Rock), Kings Canyon, etc.

During day the temperature is around 20 degrees celcius but during the night it falls down to 0! Brr! But nevertheless our mood is good :)

Cheers

this is going to be a short summary only.
after a farewell party I had to leave all my mates behind me and I left brisbane on sunday a week ago.
I then flew to the whitsunday islands and joined a sailing trip. The 3 days on the boat were very enjoyable. The snorkeling was very good, also we could help hissing the sails.
The weather at the whitsunday islands is the worst we had yet - often cloudy and with some rainfalls.

After that I meet the people of my tour. we had much fun in long island and then went on for cairns.
there we've been for 3 days. I did a skysurf - wuhuuu! - something of the best I ever did.

now we are on the way back to cairns from cape tribulation, there we took look at the rainforest, yet another beach, relaxing, swimming in the coldest creek ever ...

I'll put up some photos the next time.

This week I learnt scuba diving. I'm a PADI certified diver now :)
We've been 2 days in the classroom learning the theorie and practising in the pool. Then we went on a boat for 3 days with which we drove out to the great barrier reef.

Once you are in the wet wetsuit and have the bcd, tank, regulator, weights, fin , mask/snorkel and all that stuff mounted the adventure can begin. I saw many many different fishes down there. trompet fish, flutemouth fish, clownfish (nemo :), parrot fish, lion fish, barracuda's, shark, turtle etc. and the different corrals, sea cucumbers, sea star, x-mas tree worm, ...

The live on the boat consited of diving, eating, a short brake, diving, eating, a short brake .... ( to be continued) ... and sometimes sleeping.

The night dive was very special. You see barely nothing in the water, everything is dark. The conditions were very rough, rougher than on any other dive. It rained and even on the ground the current was pulling on you. Also we trained some navigation skills. All of that made it challenging, but on the other hand that's why this is one my favourite dives. Though we didn't see many animal's because of the darkness. In the night everyone has a glowing marker on his tank and a torch. The torch is realy important, because otherwise you hardly can see anything underwater and not less important it helps to regain the possibilty to communicate with signals as you can't speek to each other under water. The funniest thing of the night dive was the funky underweare and shirts we wore over the wetsuit. The purpose is to identify your dive-buddy (and everyone else) in the darkness.

I had a fantastic instructor (crazy girl), boat crew and many great dive mates.
On a side note: I knew they also offer a german course (I took the english) but I was very surprised to find a swiss instructor at the school. In total we've been six swiss people on the boat.

I enjoyed the diving very much and would recommend it to everyone!
..maybe with exception of people who get seasick. As for me I liked the bumps very much - it's like on a neverending rollercoaster ride :)

have a good time.

This weekend I drove to Byron Bay with 3 classmates. I rented a car for that. It's no problem to do that as long as you've got a credit card and are at least 21.
To drive on the wrong side is scary for the first minutes. My aim then was to get on the highway as fast as possible. However I have to say I felt realy comftable to drive on the left lane after to days.

We arrived in Byron late saturday evening. In the morning I've had a couvert with the dumbest fine I ever received on the carwindow.

I was realy angry because of that. There was nowhere a sign on the street or something else that indicated that you have to park this way!

On sunday we went to the lighttower, which is on the most eastern point of the australian mainland. The rest of the day we spent swimming in the waves - that's great fun!
I would have liked to spend a day more there, but not all of us agreed with that, so we went back..
If I would immigrate to australia, than to a place with sea access like in Byron.

Today it's pokertime again - wish me good luck.
see you

One week of school is left.
After that i'll fly to Airlie Beach.
There I join a trip which consists of 3 days sailing around the whitsunday islands, then we drive up to cairns, stay there a day and go ahead to cooktown and finaly return back to cairns. I'll stay in cairns for about a week to make a scuba dive course.

Then a friend from school will join me and we fly to Darwin.
From there we do a 14day trip to Adelaide. In the first three days we visit the Kakadu National Park near Darwin. Afterwards we travel by bus through the middle of australia with a lot of short stops and a bigger one in Alice Springs. Hopefully I'll see a lot of interesting stuff.

There are a man and a women who look after the players and manage the game evening.
It has 6 real poker tables and on each play 8 people.
Game mode is "Texas hold'em Poker", the blinds are doubled approx. all 15 minutes.
If you consume drinks or food before the game starts you receive the double amount of chips.

It's really interesting to play. You see some new tactics, exciting card mixing techniques and it's thrilling to see which player falls out of the game - which not.

Hi folks,
I will write here in english - practice for me, and all the new people I meet here will also be able to understand this stuff.
So, if you don't understand it or have a question, just ask ;-).

I flew from zurich to paris, then over to singapure and from there directly to brisbane.
The flights were not bad. It's just that I could barely sleep in those seats.
At least you get always a sleep mask our you can watch some movies - there's a tv screen in the back of the seat in front of you - or listen to music.

On my first day I took a cab to drive to my homestay family - that was realy scary.
At every road cross I thought the driver is taking the wrong lane. Its the same if I drive by bus - but now its better, after two days I got used to that.

My guest family is very friendly. There are grant and teena dickson - the homestay parents, teena is a great cooker, and there's steve a classmate (he is from geneva). The house is very cool, it has a nice veranda and a pool :). I have a bus stop just at my house and about 20 minutes to drive into the city. Thats pretty good - the bad thing is, that the busses don't drive after 7pm during the week. Then I have to take the train and walk 30 minutes or take a taxi.

The school started this monday. First we did was a little test which included listening to a tape, answering some questions about that, fill out the gaps in a text and speaking to a teacher.
I made it into the advanced class - the highest one (but there's still a lot to learn).
We have a good teacher - he makes the classes funny and interesting. We are eleven people in my class, three of them finished this week. Thus we will be a very small class next week, even more as some students come only on the morning. My school day ends at 3:15pm.
I could make some friends in the school, so I have some mates to do all the funny stuff, that you can do here.
The students are mostly from korea, japan, brazil and switzerland.
There is an english only policy at the school. You are not allowed to speak your native language, only english! If a teacher catches you - he will send you home for the rest of the day.
A good thing - you barely hear someone speaking another language.

The weather is very good. Its allways possible to wear short clothes. As long as you do nothing, you are fine, but as soon as you begin to walk in the sun you start sweating. In Brisbane itself (the heart of the city) you can even wear long clothes. That's because of the big buildings. The sun does not reach the ground and you're always in the shadow with a fresh breeze.
Brisbane is not that big. I think its as big as St.Gallen. But you could drive through the suburbs for hours until you reach the end. There's one residential house after the other. I already got lost some times between all those houses. The houses are much simpler than in switzerland. Many of them are built using wood or bricks and the walls are not thicker than 15cm.

This wednesday was a public holiday. So I went to the australian zoo with a school mate.
You know crocodile hunter from tv? The one that died last year. Yeah, thats his zoo.
You could see some crocodiles, different birds, birds of prey, snakes, cangaroos, wombats, koalas, elephants, lions, etc.
Cangaroos in the zoo have an easy live, they doen't not need to make a move. The tourists come directly to them and feed them.
They had a show, with snakes, crocs and birds. It was a bit boring. They took the snakes out of a box, did nothing and put them back into the box. They tried to educate people about not throwing rubbish out into the green, not panik if you see a snake, and so on.. good intention, but not that interesting.
Besides of that we had a good and funny day in the zoo.

Could tell you much more, but have to get to an end now.
I have to say its really good down here. I'm curious what the next week will bring.

I'll try to upload some pictures next time.
Hope you have it good back in switzerland, I would be pleased to hear from you, bye.
