TGEA... Mac port?

by Tyler Slabinski · in General Discussion · 09/19/2008 (3:09 pm) · 8 replies

Ok, before you post, let me just say, this is NOT a question about when there's going to be a Mac port for it. I was actually wondering this:

I found this website www.coderus.com/ and I saw something called MacDX. Now it seems that it can actually port any DirectX game onto the Mac with this. So I was wondering if anyone has tried this with TGEA.

Now I don't have SDK for TGEA, so I can't try it. But I was wondering if anyone is willing to try it.

Wasn't TGEA Mac support just announced?

Quote:TGEA 1.8 will feature OpenGL Shader Support via GFX2. This means TGEA will finally have Mac support

ShhhhhWhat? Hey Michael, if this is so, I'd like to know when, because we are starting our next project within weeks here. So.......does this mean that TGE will be dead....or should I say, will die off? Maybe it'll be kept around for the quick simple games.

Oh man, I just the goose bumps.
