ET on Mac

Post by **bani** » Mon Feb 09, 2004 8:40 pm

Hi all,

I'm talking with my contacts at Activision about getting a Mac port of ET done. ID/Activision would like to see a Mac ET, so it's just a matter of connecting the right people -- which I'm attempting to do.

I'll keep everyone updated in this thread.

Thanks for taking the time to consider porting ET to the Mac Platform.
There are a lot of players out there that would love to play this game.
Not sure what I can do to help, but feel free to contact me.
Thanks again

Hi Bani,

Can I spread this info outside this forum linking this page or do you prefer to keep it and it's non-officiality internally?

Bye.

fwiw, running a "perl cons" in src/unix gets quite a ways into the compile before it barfs.

-Wall spits out the requisite metric ton of warnings, but I'm not sure how this compares to the linux compile.

The failure occurs in creating the shared library -- a link error. This leads me to believe that a couple of #ifdefs placed in various locations would help the port along immensely.

Does OS X 10.3 count?

of course

(it won't really compile in osx without a lot of hacking iirc, and you won't be able to use the resulting file without an osx server which doesn't exist)

If you get a mac ET happening I would be happy to supply you with my girlfriend or mother for sexual favours.

also are you aware that there is a petition for a mac version of ET? it can be found at http://www.PetitionOnline.com/wofetmac/
when I signed it it was at about 6 or 7 hundred names and that was a few months ago.
Sketch.
