About buying TGB indie license

Hi everyone

I am planning to buy a TGB indie license. I am wondering if I must specify
which version I want (window or mac) or I will get both?

I am currently a mac user but I might be migrating to windows so I am wondering
if the license I buy will work on both or do I have to pay for two separate licenses
to use in both mac and windows.

Also the expansion tool (e.g. adventure and platform tools), do they work specifically
on certain platform?

Thanks a lot
Jim

You will not be locked to one platform. I dev under windows at home and when I go on the road for my Real Job(tm) I use Mac.

As for the Starter Kits, The Adventure kit works on all supported platforms for the engine, but I'm not sure about the Platformer kit. It's product page shows only windows, but I don't know why it would be specific to one platform unless it has external libraries that it depends on...

The Platformer Kit is not specific to the Windows platform and runs entirely in TorqueScript.
