Intel-Mac
 
When will Graal have Intel-Mac support? We were always told

Now there are intel macs, and we don't even have a client for Graal for them! We have client-RC now, and we can even get past not having a level editor, but WE HAVE NO CLIENT! Please don't say run it with Rosetta, you should SEE that lag!

What lag? All this time, I thought I was opening up a picture!

Linux Cyberjoueurs doesn't have any Intel Mac computers. Taking into consideration that the architecture of Intel Mac and PowerPC Mac are different. In order to compile the game and debug it, the company has to have an Intel Mac themselves. Sadly enough, they can't spare to buy one.

It's easy enough to cross-compile, but as you say, it is difficult to debug it without an Intel Mac.

There is a TON of lag on Intel Macs, due to Rosetta emulation. Out of all the money Cyberjouers has, they can't take 500$ and buy an Intel Mac?

They can't. [ postcount++; ]

Are you volunteering to debug? :-D

I would certainly be happy to help debug, if I had any idea what I was doing. Unfortunatly, my scripting abilities don't extend that far.

*shrugs* In the event Stefan needs it, maybe he's just looking for someone to try various Release-Candidates for InteliMacs and say "Nope, got a bomb message."
"Hm, try this one."
"Worked until I stepped left."
"Only Left?"
"Yeah, every other direction works."
"Hm. Okay, try it with this one..."

Damnit, I stepped left! I'll just like, keep stepping right and up and down ... after all, 3 rights make a left, right? ;)

Well I'm happy to help, though I doubt he could do this without an intel mac to test on.

Tyhm 05-08-2007 08:17 PM

Isn't that the point?
He doesn't have one, you do, so he can compile and guess, you can test and report. If the lines of communication are good enough, he might be able to fix things without actually jumping on the computer and saying "Huh, works for me-Oh, I see, you changed the keys to WASD, it's the A key that's causing problems..."

It's a theory, and now it's an offer.

I would happily help, as I said. What I did also say is that this is not what Stefan needs. He would actually need an intel-mac to compile it on.
