Once again, Martien, I assume you already downloaded SetupPlanetdance.exe from https://jcremers.com, right?

You download the setup with this https://www.jcremers.com/dl.php?file=SetupPlanetdance.exe
This will put SetupPlanetdance.exe somewhere on your machine, i don't know where, i don't know mac.
If portingkit asks for the setup file, you have to click on this SetupPlanetdance.exe.

Hi Martien,

I fully understand you.

‘Fisiere exe`is just the name of a folder where I keep the downladed Windows .exe files. You can have your folder on desktop, or Documents, wherever you want.

Yes, the port name is the name you give for the Planetdance and this will be the name you will recognize the app. You could name it "Astrolger_Martien" because this will be the name in your apps folder.

In order to install Planetdance on your Mac you have to downloaded SetupPlanetdance.exe from https://jcremers.com. That is the porgram per se. And that is the application you will install (port it) to the Mac.

Path file is the path you will install the Palnetdance in. The better path is in your Mac Applications folder.
All the best,

Hi Martien,

For capturing screenshots you don't need Adobe, you just have to click on the combination shortcut Command+Shift+5 and you can capture whatever part of your screen. And in order to put them here on forum you just need to click on this + button under the message where its name is obvious: "Attachements and other options"

I made a video of the whole process, from the moment you download SetupPlanetdance.exe from https://jcremers.com, until the end of the installation process on your Mac.

Unfortunately, its size is 1,6 GB and it's not possible to attach it here, due to size restrictions. I also compress it as .mp4, even with an awful resolution, but still its size is 38 MB and it is not fitting the size requirements of the forum.


So, either Jean could help it to post it here, or you can let me your email address to send it to you.

Cheers
All the best,

Hi Martien,

Here you are, I uploaded the installation video on a share transfer site and you could download it from there:

Hi Martien,

No, my video doesn't contain anything, it's just a simple and normal video.
Maybe you have to check the resolution of your display on Mac.

Ok, this is all I could do to help you. From this point onwards, I think only a person on site could help you, installing the app for you.

gcirceag thanks again for all your efforts, much appreciated. I downloaded and watched the video. I'm thinking of uploading it to my site so others can watch it too.

Martien, i understand that it must be difficult for you, some people just don't get along with IT, but I didn't like that you are complaining about 'all the questions you have to answer'. There is someone here who is doing a lot of work trying to help you and you are complaining about having to answer questions. And if your system can't even play a normal video you should ask for help at your place.

You sure sound like a spoiled and ungrateful child, you are blaming us for your incompetence, but it's really your bad attitude that sucks. Go and write your columns as much as you like and don't come here anymore.

Martien, you know what amazes me? That you, as a psychic, can forsee such complicated phenomena, such hard things, but you can't forsee the answers to those easy questions and that you can't see the best solution for the installation of such a small and easy software.
All the best,

Gabriel i removed Martien and his posts from the forum. I'm sorry for all the effort you took. Me, as a pisces, i sensed something from the start, some unwillingness, as if everything had to be perfect for him else it wouldn't do.

Jean,

Unfortunately the harder working type is with humans; there are so unpredictable ...
