First, what version of Mac OS (X?) are you using?

Second, why did you reinstall Mac OS (X?)?

Mac OS X 10.3.9

I reinstalled, because I though Halo MD was going to work after.

-Modzy
Eschaton had come kind of error saying that it couldn't find a plugin. Something like Plugin.GetEntry

Is there way I can get Time Machine, or restore my HDD.

You should have just waited for me to get back to you instead of reinstalling an OS...

Is it only halo apps that don't work for you? Does Halo Demo still work?

(In all practically I wouldn't even suggest to upgrade the OS, I'd just suggest to buy a new computer...but anyway.)

Don't worry, just take one problem at a time.

Backup your documents and information to an external hard drive, then see if the Apple Store will give you a free upgrade to the latest version of Mac OS X that is compatible with your computer. If not, see what cheap options you have in buying a new mac, otherwise, find out what latest version of Mac OS will run on your computer. You should have 10.4 or 10.5 if it's a PPC. I can only recommend up to 10.6, after that, things get questionable in terms of reverse-compatibility.

His computer can probably be upgraded to Tiger (10.4). Then again, I think that would be a waste of money at this point.

I can only recommend to be on the latest OS. You'll eventually have no choice, and the longer you wait, the more it'll hurt transitioning.

Still getting the same error for Eschaton:

Code: Select all

Runtime Error
Please report what caused this error along with the information below.
/Volumes/RBUS/Common/plugin.cpp: 7317
Failure Condition: pluginEntryTable.GetEntry( entrypointName, out )
can't find plugin method Light3D.__init
Guys... it is happening for all the Eschaton versions I have...

I actually didn't read it and wrote it, I copied and pasted it from this url:
http://www.halodemomods.com/mediawiki/i ... output.txt
I have no idea what this error is.

So presumably swordedit and eschaton rely on a framework called Quesa, and I believe your system does not like running that. I'd try copying the framework from swordedit's (or Eschaton's) application bundle (show package contents -> Contents -> Resources -> Frameworks), and paste it into /Library/Frameworks/ and /Users/username/Library/Frameworks/ - if this doesn't work, revert the changes.

Also it'd help if you actually answered my question but I'm assuming the answer is "yes" now.

Make sure you're updated to 10.3.9 and not on 10.3.0 or something.
