Here is a example of the crashlog that we need the mac's to look like.

All that is missing from mac's current crash reports.
Showing the local vars would also be very nice to have.

Something like:

All that is missing from mac's current crash reports.

Actually all that (except for the language and the map name) is already in the report.

The local vars though are missing.

All the stuff after Misc Data: (which is what we add to all the crash dumps), and I don't recall if we know show if the Mac build is a release / debug build, or the Distributor is mentioned.

For the Misc Data, the only things that you cannot get from the crash reports is Video Mode, language and Current Level/map; the rest is there at the bottom (though I have seen people cut it out of the report they send in but there is no good fix for that).

There is no mention of a distributor in the mac reports (but is that something we really need?); as for saying if it is a debug build or not, currently it does not, but I could add a note to the version string for debug builds if you like.

Just found this; it may prove useful.
