@Dee It seems reading from various threads that Windows users were treated with a hot fix. Could we get it too on MacOS? It's very frustrating not to be able to use numeric keys to select characters.
There's something else that I think was not updated in the Mac build. Issue 6204: All edges of outside area maps should fade to black instead of cutting off abruptly in the 10-9-2013 update was never fixed for me.
I am also wondering if we can have a Mac fix for the party selection issue. It was ok with just one or two characters, but difficult with a full party.
@nsr I had a pause when I enrolled for the beta, wondering whether there would be a lag of updates behind Windows. A slight lag there was at the beginning but this lack of party selection hotfix is becoming a gulf. My fingers are hard-wired to hit the row of numeric keys and it's painfully frustrating to play without them.
I was away for a couple weeks and now that I'm home I launched BG and loaded the updates and suddenly I can longer change party members by the number keys... this seriously crippling for me. This is the only thread I've seen regarding this issue so far and I am playing on a Mac. I never realized how essential the character numbers where until it wasn't there - @Dee please help as this has become unplayable for me this way.

Same situation here. Playtesting the beta is quite a chore without being able to easily select party members with the number keys. @Dee: Is it possible to push the fix to OS X users?
The update will appear in the launcher as soon as we push the build; it still takes a little while for it to upload and compile; until the build is finished uploading, you'll see pretty slow download speeds.

Huzzah! I see the update, but like you said it is super slow - I'll wait with great anticipation. Thanks @Dee!
As I write this the updater is stalled on "Downloading" and below "Waiting for download to start". It's been like so for close to 5 hours.
I have that exact problem at the moment, though it wasn't this update but the one that followed it that seems to have done it. I've tried deleting and reinstalled the game twice so far and it freezes in the same spot. Going for a 3rd time lucky now :P

Can other Mac users check for this?
