[MacOS] Could not find the master-datafile

[subokita]

My machine is a M2 Mac Mini with latest MacOS (14.5 (23F79)), my Fallout files are downloaded from GoG and extracted using innoextract. I downloaded the latest Fallout Community Edition.

I've seen this issue marked as resolved by someone else, after they updated to latest Fallout CE, but it doesn't work on my case.

I'm getting

Could not find the master-datafile
Please make sure the FALLOUT CD is in the drive 
and that you are running FALLOUT from the directory you installed in

Here's my directory structure in /Applications/Fallout

and here's my fallout.cfg that I edited to use uppercase paths

Anyone know how to resolve this? The error implies that it's path naming issue, but somehow I tried from renaming directory, to updating config file, it still gives me the same error.

Thank you

Known issue on *Unix systems (MacOS is BSD based). PR #119 should resolve this, however a quick fix is just renaming everything to be lowercase though I had limited success with that in my attempts
