This solves all Intel Mac errors, and hopefully has made your installation/running much simpler.
Thank you for downloading, comment and seed, please! We need you!

Rhubarm (2009-11-22)

Thx man i love this game and i cant wait to get this downloaded ^^

easybtn (2009-11-22)

It also comes pre-fitted with some gamepad controls, so it's fairly easy to map to a console controller if you've got one connected.
I found it to be really easy to map my PS3 controller.
I did find one error and one slightly unfortunate aspect of the game. The error is you can't change the hue/saturation/vibrance of objects in the create-a-skater mode. The unfortunate part is it won't load the world past a few hundred feet around you, aka you can't see very far.

ders nly 1 seeder......guys plzzzzzz seeeeeddd

Rhubarm (2009-11-23)

meh doesnt work for me it just crashes when i start it BUT i dont have that framework thing does that matter?

easybtn (2009-11-23)

I haven't tried the game without the framework in place, but I'd imagine it has something to do with it on Intel-based macs. The game was built expressly for PPC, and I've heard from many accounts that copying the framework over is necessary.

easybtn (2009-11-23)

I can confirm that on Intel (10.6), the game will not load without the LaunchServices framework in place.

killerzip (2009-11-25)

Couldn't get it to work. did all of the instructions and it quit t the moment it would usually display the game menu.

easybtn (2009-11-26)

System specs?
The only time I've noticed that it refuses to open is if the LaunchServices framework isn't present. Make sure the 'Play (CD2)' disk is mounted.

killerzip (2009-11-27)

An iMac Intel 2.4GHz with a ATI 2400 HD. 10.6.2 and I mounted the disc with toast. I recently sold my original copy of the game, which I could never get to work even with the fix.

easybtn (2009-11-28)

Did you install the patch as well? It wouldn't launch for me until I had the .app replaced.

tomclap (2009-12-02)

same here followed all the instructions works fine but then crashes at the where the game menu should be after all the into vids n stuff

BPirates (2009-12-03)

Highly annoyed! Opened it up, followed instructions to install it and when I start to install, it says after seconds "The Item Save cannot be found. Installation cannot continue." Help!

TheRuns (2009-12-05)

Can you just mount the disk 2 using OS X disk mount? Or do you need Toast Titanium? It won't let me play even though I have it mounted using the OS X....
Help!

dccdanchalmes (2009-12-08)

downloaded, seeded, works fine. Near perfect accept for alot of fade ins

SethAbel (2009-12-10)

Good day, much appreciation for the upload, however I am experiencing the same problem multiple users are. Showing the contents of the THPS 4 application, one can see the game is not supported on this architecture.
Is there no work around ? and why does it work on some yet not others ?
- Peace.
(Using 10.5.6)

eginitarasiloveme (2009-12-13)

Nice Upload man.I do exactly that you say and very good install BUT... When I am trying to play.when the trailer ends and it is loading when the loading finish close the game and it says
Mac Os Xand other application are not affected
What Can I DO?????????????????????????????
PLEASE HELP

easybtn (2009-12-15)

I'm not sure what the problem is. I test fine on Snow Leopard but I haven't personally tested this on Leopard. I can't imagine the process would be much different.
Yes, you need Toast to mount the CD to play the game, otherwise the computer recognizes it as an image not a CD. I used to get this problem as well. Try editing the splash-screen settings.
Does anyone have it working on 10.5 or lower? Please let us know.

bafou (2009-12-19)

Same problem as SethAbel and eginitarasiloveme for me ! i use 10.5.6

dlquinte (2009-12-19)

I did everything as described, but when I want to open the game I get the message that THPS4 quit unexpectedly. When I click reopen it's just the same message that keeps on coming...
Who can help me?

yebopilot (2009-12-20)

hi i have the same problem as diquinte. I did everything as described and can open the settings window but as soon as i press play it quits itself..
help pls

easybtn (2009-12-24)

Honestly the port is a little fidgety. Try fiddling with the resolution and settings. I'm not sure what issues may exist for Leopard and Tiger users, but I would assume it can be attributed to that.
If you haven't done the frameworks step yet either, that would definitely be a cause of it not working.

yebopilot (2009-12-24)

i've done all that and it still isn't working -.-

dlquinte (2009-12-25)

I just did it all over again, but now there is no folder with that name in my library (> frameworks)! So I can't copy it...
(snow leopard 10.6.2)

easybtn (2009-12-27)

Did you go to the /Library or /Users/you/Library? It's in the root library, not yours.

corruptop (2009-12-27)

Hey easybtn,
I'm new to this discussion. I got the game finally working with the patch folder and Toast.
It gives me the intro movies, after that the loading.
When it's done loading it shuts off and says :
Mac Os X and other applications are not affected
I tried resolution changes, CD changes n' other stuff.... Don't work
Any tips ? Anybody ?
Using Mac OS X v.10.5.4
Thanks

easybtn (2009-12-28)

As I've said before, I'm not sure if there are running errors on Leopard/Tiger.
Just make sure you've installed the launch frameworks and the patch. It could be an issue with the patch itself, in which case Google the following: "thps4 1.0.2 patch mac"
This is a fairly unstable port to begin with, and it's obvious that Aspyr/Activision didn't spend a lot of time fixing bugs or ensuring basic functionality was present.

dlquinte (2009-12-28)

Nope! I was checking the right library!
Very strange...

dlquinte (2009-12-29)

Okay, i did it all over again. And now i found the folder and followed all the steps. So I click to open THPS4 and I see the options window, next I did was clicking 'Play' and it shuts down. I got no error messages or something, it just quits itself...
Could this be a problem concerning the patch you were talking about?
grts

corruptop (2009-12-30)

Nope, sorry. Maybe it's something with the color or sound settings... I couldn't play THPS2 because my Mac couldn't change to 16bit...

Ckecker67 (2010-01-13)

I can't unzip the file Tony Hawks Pro Skater 4-1.zip. Why? I don't know. Plz help me. It doesn't works with stuffitExpander, The Unarchiver and The Archiverapp from Snow lepard

Ckecker67 (2010-01-14)

ah, o.k. it works. But when, I will play the game, The programm said: You need the THPS4 Play Disc in your CD-ROM drive to play this game. Please insert it and try again.
What can i Do? Pls help me

dlquinte (2010-01-14)

Before you click to open, you have to mount the CD2 (play disc) with toast.

Ckecker67 (2010-01-14)

mount, is that burn?

easybtn (2010-01-24)

If you have Toast Titanium installed with Finder menus, just press right-click the file and click "Mount It". Otherwise, open Toast and mount it. It essentially makes the computer think it's an actual CD.

kaspar004 (2010-02-23)

Hi,
it says by me:
The serial number you entered is not valid......
i tried many times..!!!! What to do....????

lamplover (2010-03-03)

I've tried several methods and exhausted all other methodologies that i know have worked with other torrents. I've tried tweaking the splash screen as well as the menu to no avail. Thanks anyways uploader. If i want to skate i guess i just got to grab deck and face the outside world lol

maxyboy1 (2010-03-09)

xnajkn (2010-03-30)

Copy which folder man, gone to the location which you told but copy not move which folder?

xnajkn (2010-03-30)

fucked up.........seed.............

xnajkn (2010-03-30)

@romeeo23, mount play CD2 using toast titanium, not any other software..... However the game will never work...

xnajkn (2010-03-30)

@kaspar004 , there are no spaces at all, no spaces means 0 spaces, it will work after that, however the game doesn't work.

xnajkn (2010-03-30)

Don't waste your time....

xnajkn (2010-03-30)

This shit is not working.

easybtn (2010-04-09)

Wow, sorry it took me so long to get to all the new comments.
@ romeeo23, Ckecker
Unfortunately, you will have to mount the 'Play' image every time you want to play the game. Don't trash it!
@ xnajkn
Hey, thanks for the stream of comments! I love it when people try to sabotage the internet through spam!

Nazis (2010-04-26)

Works on 10.6.3. No problems till now! Thanks!

moloqO (2010-05-22)

CD2 is full of files that are not readable by mac, i mount it but still i get the PLEASE INSERT PLAY DISC

Ferdyfist (2010-07-20)

No no, on the play cd, right clik, and choose mount it. That works for me. Mail me if something goes wrong :sonnyboy_96@hotmail.com
I'm playing this on 10.6.4

Coshe01 (2010-07-31)

Help! Im using a mac version 10.6.4
when i look for the folder "frameworks" there's no folder named "CoreServices.framework" there's just a bunch of other folders. So i can't copy anything.
So when i try to open the game (yes i know how to use toast) it only says there's an error...

ewhuff (2010-08-02)

I have done everything explained in the Read me file. However when i start the game I get the video sequences then when it gets to the load screen before the menu the loading bar completes then crashes. Anyone know what the problem is?

JDenverL (2010-09-01)

Same issue as ewhuff. Anyone have a solution?

alphabox (2011-03-01)

Can someone upload the patch only plz?

easybtn (2011-03-24)

There's no such thing as just downloading the patch files.

jackfrerer (2011-04-21)

i have mounted cd2 with mount me! but it still tells me to insert the cd when i try to play........do i really need to buy toast?

rainierrr (2011-07-14)

dsfasd

rainierrr (2011-07-14)

Wow... finally I made it work on 10.6.8
Just followed the instructions about copying the launchservices folder.
I dont know why the patch wasn't in the torrent, so I had to download it myself. You can get it in here t w e dot l y diagonal Y g o b ...... you need to mount the bins with toaster, so when is mounted you see a CD icon instead of a white drive ( like when you mount images with osx ) that will fix your problems about the CD Check.. Hope it helps and sorry for by bad english.
