TSE is not Mac compatible yet. This is something that will be done eventually with OpenGL.

You will be able to use shaders and normal mapping with the Mac, yes.
The lighting pack is not compatible with TSE, yet.

Hi Mathias,

Stefan and Anthony are correct there will be a TSE version of the Lighting Pack. For now you can start working on your project using the Lighting Pack for TGE, and then easily port to the Lighting Pack for TSE when it becomes available. For information on the Lighting Pack for TSE tech demo shown at IGC you can check my latest plan.

Hope this helps!

Btw: there is a Lighting Pack forum, which I check much more frequently than the other forums (also it can be difficult to find Lighting Pack questions in the TGE forums, so I sometime miss them). Feel free to join us it's a general discussion forum, so you can ask any Lighting Pack questions you have.
