Nicholas, I feel your pain... and now you can feel mine. Not sure if it's some late change to 1.0.11, or YHTNTEP itself, or something gummy with Steam... but I cannot for the life of me get the new updated version to get past the launcher. Regardless of whether or not I choose any mods, once I click the "start" button it fades to black and then crashes to desk top before ever giving me the option to name the expansions. Here's the apple bug report. I don't have any debug text from Terminal because I'm trying to start it through Steam.

data.
Yep, as indicated in the original post, I'm running it in Steam. EDIT: Steam itself is not crashing. My Steam window stays open just fine. Only Dredmor is crashing. EDIT #2: Sent you a private message with more details plus idle speculation.
Right. I just checked it on the Mac Mini in the office and the packaged version still runs fine; which suggests that the problem is that you can't connect to Steam Cloud and this is causing Bad Things. So obviously we need to do better about error handling in this case; however, you might be able to get away with it by poking your net connection (or otherwise doing some thing else to make sure either Steam can talk to the cloud, or that Steam and Dredmor are talking on OS X.) I'll test this on my Macbook Pro once I get home as well. In the mean time, I've sent this to Ryan.
My internet connection had been a little buggy earlier today, but Steam is currently showing me stuff like my friends online, community pages, etc. Please also read the message in the private thread.
Only reason I could see this crashing like this is if Steam Cloud gave us a corrupted file, or we wrote corrupted data to the Cloud at some point...since Steam Cloud doesn't actually talk to the network in-game (the files are sitting in a magic folder that Steam downloaded them to...in-game, talking to the Steam Cloud interface just reads files from disk), I'm wondering if these files got screwed up and Steam doesn't notice. If you won't miss them, you can run the game with the -nukesteamcloud command line option, but you'll lose all your save games, high scores, etc...but it'll probably stop the crashing. I'm not sure if there's a way to tell Steam to verify your Cloud files, but that would be worth exploring, too.
My internet connection seems fine. Steam can reach the net in terms of letting me check community pages, store, workshop, etc. Rebooting steam and then my computer and then steam again didn't fix it. "Validate Game Cache" didn't change anything. I can't run this version of Dredmor outside of Steam, either. My backups of previous versions run fine outside of Steam, but the current one doesn't. Are we sure this is a Steam problem? I'm about 50% through a fresh download now, to see if something got goofed up in ways Steam isn't seeing.
Deleting local content didn't solve it. Full reinstall didn't solve it. However, full reinstall _followed_ by -nukesteamcloud does seem to have solved it. So, yep, it was a Steam issue. I can even launch it from outside of Steam now. Weird. Thank you, Ryan and Nicholas!
I just now noticed the processor requirements for the Mac version. No wonder I was having trouble. I'll break out Tobin's Spirit Guide the next time it starts acting up. You guys are the greatest.
