How to get it on Mac faster:

Sign up to help the team.

Otherwise, quiet down.

or just get a pc! you would think that imac users would be used to this by now after you have all been discriminated from the majority of games... i mean cmon. if your waiting for cb, your not missing anything anyways. just xtal hunting and roleplaying (really bad roleplaying i may add) so just quit yer whinin unless you feel like takin the code and building a mac version. Plus cb will be *makes holy voice* AWESOME..., so just wait till cb when there is almost a promised mac verson, or like kiern has instructed, do it yourself. i mean someone has to do it or it will never be done right?

They did one, and it failed horribly.  But I think this is more an issue for the Crystal Space team, since I think that\'s where the problem with a Mac version was.
Ninjas have feelings too.  Mostly they feel like dancing.

Only 1 or 2 devs own a Mac, so they can\'t really develop a Mac distribution unless people help them. If any Mac users feel they could help the team with this, they should.

Erm... I\'m guessing no... you\'d probably need a Mac to run a Mac OS, and if you got a Mac computer without an OS, I suggest you take it back. :P

The mac version of CB seems to be working good (not that I\'ve tryed), just poke JeroMiya|OSX in the pub dev channel.

CB mac is coming along nicely. I did help track down and fix some bugs on the osx version, but I had a lot of help and heavy guidance. Even if you don\'t know how to fix the bugs yourself, simply trying to download the cvs, trying to build, and trying to run (and reporting on your success/failure to the dev team) is IMMENSELY useful! So fire up cvs and gcc and jam and help out the team people! ;)

If you have trouble building on the mac, email me at jeremyeb at umich dot edu. I will post an osx building tutorial soon.

In case you don\'t believe me, take a look at this (and remember that I don\'t have dev cvs access, so I get the test level and character model):

Hrm.. seems the dev team doesn\'t want to have screenshots of the cvs version posted publicly, so I removed it. You\'ll just have to trust me that it is working.
