MoM OSX Build

Woohoo!

Here's a shot of Minions of Mirth, playing online, on OSX!!!

I still have a considerable amount to do on this, though I can sigh some relief. It friggin' works... OSX is a Python lover's paradise.

There ain't nothing like the feeling of increasing your investment!!! Huge thanks to Garage Games for an amazing cross-platform engine!!!

If you notice in the upper left of the screenshot, you'll see "python" . MoM was run by invoking:

:$python MinionsOfMirth.py

MoM required zero changes to any Python or TorqueScript file. For the python code, there was no build configuration work to do... nothing... GCC's compile time wasn't an issue... figuring out XCodeness wasn't an issue... also, several dependencies were setup simply by doing:

python setup.py install

The MoM packaging system for Windows is Python based... OSX will be the same way.

from pytorque import *

Shouldn't the robes be "robe of necromancy"? I remember in Everquest 1 there was a couple robes called "robes" and most where just robe. (just an observation not a complaint!) Great work looks sweet.

Thanks :)

"Robes" would appear to be just fine. :)
