- First, locate your game
- Right click on it, and select an option called "show package contents"
- Navigate through Contents > MacOS > Bitfighter
- Open the application terminal, located in Applications > Utilities
- Drag the bitfighter executable into the terminal window
- You may need to drag the "bitfighter.sh" file into Terminal instead
- After that is done, type a space, and then input -dedicated
- No game window will open, but your server will be up. Open your game and join a game to see.
