I'm trying to install Spiral Spy (a bit late, I know) and I'm having a little trouble. From what research on Google I've done, I know I'm supposed to place the Jar in User/Library/Application Support/spiral, or something like that. The problem is, I can't find the folder "spiral" in Application Support.
Anyone have any idea what I'm doing wrong?
I'm using an OS X Snow Leopard, and have not converted to Steam.
Are you using a standalone app? I checked my game and this is what I found:
Since I couldn't get the automatic downloaded to work, I downloaded the game manually. I moved the Spiral Knights.app into my application folder for it to live.
For this, you can right click on the .app and select Show Package Contents
From here, it is under (Spiral Knights.app)/Contents/Resources/Java/
Hope this helps,

I've played SK both through the web interface and downloaded as a standalone app. (I don't use Steam either.) It appears that the web interface downloads its stuff to ~/Library/Application Support/spiral, as I described above, and the standalone app has the same material inside its package, as Wolfheart described. Benb, one of these applies to you, right?
Well, presumably. As you can tell, my knowledge of computers leaves something to be desired, so I'm not always sure what I have and don't have. However, a quick search with Spotlight yielded no results for Standalone, so I'm guessing it's what Bopp first suggested.
Edit: Never mind, I was just looking around files and found "spiral" at long last. Thanks guys!
Graveyarding this thread so it doesn't get in the way.
I to am on a Mac running Snow Leopard. I haven't tried to install SpiralSpy. But I think that the directory "User" in that pathname is your user home directory. For example, if your account on the machine is benb, then the path is
/Users/benb/Library/Application Support/spiral
or equivalently
~/Library/Application Support/spiral
I have a spiral folder there, with contents such as background.png, digest.txt, etc. Do you?
