Comment (by eisnerguy1):

 Replying to [comment:5 csnover]:
 > Thanks for your report! This is happening because
 `MacResourceForkResourceSource` gives out volume files which are for the
 data fork, which is the wrong fork, so every resource fails validation
 because the wrong size (the data fork’s size) is used to check offsets for
 files which exist in the resource fork. It turns out the one Mac game I
 have does not use resource forks, but rather standard RESOURCE files with
 data in the data fork, so I never noticed this during testing.

 No problem.  Glad to help in any way I can.  How difficult is to fix
 something like this?  No rush at all, just wondering.
