OK I have found a method that works with Rapture and hopefully will also work with Dimension. All you need is a working (legit) copy of the two plist files that go in preferences, edit them with your own serial and put them in preferences. This tricks the installer into thinking it is just updating an existing installation so it bypasses the serial entry problem (that was the bit not working as the regserver routine was not Intel based). I have tried this with Rapture and it is now installed and working - I just need someone with a legit copy of Dimension Pro on Mac to kindly send me copies of these 2 files for Dimension (I will gladly provide evidence that I am a legit owner if you want). Thanks

Annoying that there is very little Cakewalk need to do to make these run on OS-X Lion - they just need to pull their fingers out and do it - ironically the installers for the addons also ask for a serial but when I entered it they ran so it looks like Cakewalk have updated those installers to Intel systems - so why can't they do that for the plugin installers?

Easy way to do it:

Copy the contents of the dmg installer to a folder on your computer (I copied it to a folder called dim on my Desktop).
You need to remove the WriteRegKey utility and fake it. Just it

Code: Select all

[ waltercruz stark0 ~ ] cd Desktop/
[ waltercruz stark0 ~/Desktop ] cd dim
[ waltercruz stark0 ~/Desktop/dim ] ls
Dimension Pro 1.5 FULL.app  Documentation  EULA  Install Data  Patch
 waltercruz stark0 ~/Desktop/dim ] cd Install\ Data/
 waltercruz stark0 ~/Desktop/dim/Install Data ] rm WriteRegKey
[ waltercruz stark0 ~/Desktop/dim/Install Data ] touch WriteRegKey
[ waltercruz stark0 ~/Desktop/dim/Install Data ] chmod 777 WriteRegKey

(Still doing my install, will update this post when it's done).

Hello,

I have a working installation of Dimension Pro on a Virtualbox Machine, where can I find these two plist? I can only find one of them in /library/preferences

I used Chads solution on the other thread. Never got the installer to move pass the Serial Number window.

Wonder if Waltercruz got it.

Managed to make it run under Live using jbridgem

I played it for a while, everything works as expected, lovely, I finally have some new quality sounds for cheap.

I will have to buy that as well, but for $10, well worth it.

So now I have Dimension Pro running on live 9.0.4 64 bit install, on Mountain Lion.

Doesn't works

The install is ok, but looks that I still need the plists files.
