Download binary, and run in Xcode but nothing happens. Can you please tell me what to do

nickzman commented 7 years ago

What are you trying? The binary isn't run in Xcode.

cronos45 commented 7 years ago

My mistake, I thought it was. When you say binary I am unsure which file. I thought this was a metal app to test with OS X

nickzman commented 7 years ago

This is a screen saver, not an app. You download the DMG binary, double-click on it to mount it (if your browser doesn't already do that step for you), and then right-click on the screen saver and choose "open" to have System Preferences install it. After that, you can select it and change its preferences in System Preferences -> Desktop & Screen Saver -> Screen Saver -> RainingCubes.

When downloaded It is automatically unzipped and i can not see a DMG anywhere, I know the hub is not for support, So I truly appreciate you taking some time to help.

The binary posted under "releases" is a DMG. If you downloaded a ZIP, then you downloaded the source code instead of the binary. If you don't want to build your own binary, then download the DMG instead.
