Work manually. Copy the art into the art directory, change the init.txt file.

Have a look at the mayday build for windows for its art folder and text file, copying those into the mac version worked for me.

Manually is what I meant, I figured that that was the only way to do it, I never downloaded a tileset with a .exe haha. There you go.

That happened to me when I misspelled the filename in init.txt. Check if your path and filename are correct.

There you go:

http://rapidshare.com/files/141159689/df-mac-sltileset-sphrgraph.zip.html

It's df 40c with the SL tileset mod which I manually applied to the raws, since we can't run modbase on mac. The tileset is changed to Sphr_square_16x16_mix which seems compatible to the SL set but has more Nintendo sprites. The graphics set is Sphr Director's cut.
