The first post !

This is the status of the mac version

Login - works
choosing player - works
chat - works
speaking with npc - works
sound - doesn't work

I'm will try to make a good binary for you that doesn't want to compile it and if you want to compile it, you need to make alfafont to work, it's possible, but takes some time

allegro will be no problem compiling.

alright, i was scared this morning when i updated my cvs and the sound files were almost empty, now i know why. anyhow, could you just put a ifdef MACOSX around the sound init part? that'll keep the sound class from working or comment out everything an write a dummy one for now.

if you could look into why jgmod doesn't work or if you have suggestions on which library works better let me know.

My computer is making some strangesthings, like quite is self and the screen is really wierd. So the binary will take some more time (sorry)

But for you that can't wait here is a small guid how to compile:

You got to have the dev-tools installed, it's shipped with macosx or can be downloaded from apple.com. Open the terminal.app in applications/utilites/ and do as following :

* first get allegro, run "sh fix.sh macosx" and after that type "make" and after that "sudo make install"
* get alfont here http://www.shell.linux.se/simon/tmw/alfont_mac.tgz <-- I have made some change to make it work, Just type "make" and after that "sudo make install"
* Get tmw for this homepage or "cvs -z3 -d:pserver:anoncvs@sull.homelinux.net:/var/home/cvs/repository co tmw". just make it and after that type ./tmw
#note that the sound doesn't work, I will add it as soon I have fixed my computer.

Anything that doesn't work, just ask ( I won't be at irc until my computer is fixed, but I can be at the forum every day ) and I will try to help

Do you mean the binary?, that is called tmw.

But I have done a new binary release that doesn't need you to install anything.
Just download open and klick on the icon, and it runs

<-- thats that mac spirit.

Yes, but Blorx and I have pretty much given up for the time being. However, gene now has a Mac, so maybe we'll see some progress again.

I get this gay error

wada i do to fix it?

Post by **Talaroc** » 19 Jun 2005, 22:03

That error doesn't seem particularly happy to me...
(seriously, don't use "gay" as a derogatory term, it makes you sound stupid)

As for what to do...wait for the next Mac binary. It's being worked on, and it should actually work, unlike the current one which seems to be totally broken.

I agree, but he has an "...@cox.net" e-mailadress. Therefor he is allowed to use the word "gay".
