I'm sure the answer is "No", but I thought I would ask anyway. I've just been given my first dev task on Nexus and it requires me to have Viewmesh to test the textures I'm making. I was directed by Talad to get a windows machine and download the Viewmesh app so i can see what I 'm doing. So far, with 5 days of trying, I've not been able to get the app working under (eeeks!) Windows emulation with Virtual PC 7. I get the app to open but there is no way to load a file. Is there any Mac compile of the Viewmesh? Is this even possible? It would make my life easier and I can meet my deadline! Any hope?
This might belong in the dev deliberations section, but I took my chances in the Mac friendly thread instead. Feel free to move it.

Isn't it possible to just compile everything yourself?

Thom: Well, it might be if I knew about such things, but I'm just a poor Photoshop jockey and don't have compilers and am not into programming. I though that there might be someone out there who already took a stab at it.

Maybe you can go to IRC channel #planeshift-build on the Freenode network. There might be people to help you out. Else you can try on #crystalspace.

I did just as you suggested Thom, and dfryer compiled a working Mac version of Viewmesh for me. I works great, problem solved!! Thanks dfryer! \\o//
