Can't start it on macOS 1.12.6. Standart Quakespasm works fine.

Try entering in the launcher window: -basedir full-path-to-quake-directory

And when add the -game command to start AD, it still tells me I don't own the game: bildschirmfoto 2017-08-13 um 23 29 23 leads into: bildschirmfoto 2017-08-13 um 23 29 28

Hm.. it seems that the launcher doesn't currently support paths with spaces, sorry :(

If you rename the "All Quake" folder to "AllQuake", and also give the -basedir argument the quake folder (not id1) it should work. i.e. -basedir /Users/Gaschka/Desktop/AllQuake/Quake -game ad_v1_50final

Thanks for the hint, I tried it, still no luck. The regular version of QuakeSpasm.app works fine though, both vanilla Quake or with mods (-game).

Sorry I'm not sure what's wrong. I fixed quoting for entering paths with spaces in the launcher, and also fixed those error messages to print out the path it is trying to use. we should have a new official release of Quakespasm fairly soon.

When you enter the full path to your Quake folder do it like this:

/Volumes/"Name Of Your Hard Drive"/Users/Gaschka/Desktop/AllQuake/Quake/

Adding /Volumes/"Name Of My Hard Drive"/ to the beginning of the path fixed it for me. Also don't forget the trailing / after Quake at the end.
