Any coder with the know how on this available to make a OSX build for WoD?

[Echelon9]

There were some OpenGL features that WoD uses, which needed to be supported on OS X. I recall Swifty and myself had addressed this in a feature branch of the code, but we can check.

This was blocking the availability of a WoD Mac build.

[Spoon]

Okay yeah, I caught that before. But is it still an issue now?

[Swifty]

The branch at https://github.com/SamuelCho/Freespace-Open-Swifty/tree/wings_of_dawn should be Mac-compatible now. I don't own a Mac unfortunately and the only access I have to one is the one that my studio loaned to me which I rarely bring home. Spoon, if you want a binary, I can try and see if I can grab my work Mac to build one during the work week.

[oohhboy]

I can test it if you can get a binary to me. I was the one to ask after all. Running 10.9.5 if it matters.

[Spoon]

I have no means to test it myself.
I just want to be able to serve WoD to those poor souls stuck on a Mac platform 

[chief1983]

Here's some builds from that branch.  Haven't tested them at all though.

[Spoon]

Thanks, I hope they work. (will have to wait for someone to confirm I guess!)

[oohhboy]

Downloaded it now, I will get back to you guys here in a couple hours depending on how well it works.

[oohhboy]

Whelp. that was a short test. Crashes on launch via Wxlauncher. (Crash 1 WOD.txt)

Attempting to run it with the 2014 Media VPs results in Crash 2 WOD.txt.

Launching with no Mod results as the same as Crash 1.

Hrmm, we might need to package a newer release of the SDL library with FS2Open for Mac.

[Spoon]

I guess it's safe to say that OSX won't be supported at this point then?

[jg18]

EDIT 2: Derp, I forgot to untar the Frameworks.tgz file. Retrying. Watch this space.

[jg18]

Both release and debug build successfully on Xcode 6.3.2 on OS X 10.10.3.

However it CTDs on startup.

[Echelon9]

Based on the back trace, and other similar reports around the web of issues with SDL1.2 and modern OS X, am inclined to think that crash pushes the move to SDL2 to urgent.

http://trac.wildfiregames.com/ticket/2272 (further reports in last post there).

[jg18]

I tried dropping in SDL2.framework from the .dmg found at http://libsdl.org/download-2.0.php by renaming it to SDL.framework. Not surprisingly, it wouldn't compile. Terminal output attached.

Does SDL Everywhere use SDL 2.0?

[niffiwan]

Does SDL Everywhere use SDL 2.0?

Yes, 2.0.3 IIRC.

[chief1983]

Actually, the SDL2.framework in Frameworks.tgz is SDL 2.0.1, I will have a PR up shortly to upgrade that to 2.0.3 in the antipodes branch though.

[chief1983]

Also, I just re-ran the builds I uploaded (which were made on my older machine, not my current one) and they ran the MediaVPs 2014 fine for me, all the way into a mission and back out, no crash.  Log.  Also, the WoD build did have an oddity I noticed, might be in other builds though too.  Image

So whenever I bump this thread there seems to be like a second of activity before it dies off again...
So once again a bump.
