sorry, no.  BP compatibility version is 3.7.0 compatible, but not BP "full".

[Echelon9]

Update: The E has committed a fix to trunk for this bug in r9718.

Have identified why Mac is showing "black squares" and other visual corruption with the BP builds and default data -- Mantis 2861: AddressSanitizer: heap-buffer-overflow in opengl_shader_set_current().

I have assigned it to Valathil (rather presumptively of me) but any interested coders can take a look at provide patches if possible.

While the incomplete Mac support is the partial culprit, the engine is not gracefully falling back to a lesser graphics setting. With this Mantis report fixed, there would be improved support for Mac with BP.

The ultimate fix though, will be to support the OpenGL 3.2 Core profile on Mac, which has been a roadblock to better OpenGL performance on that platform.

Made some OS X builds on Xcode 3.2.6.  Changed the SDK to 10.6, left the target 10.4, and had to change the target arch to i386 from ppc/i386.  Attached the project diff, might want to integrate it into the full BP patch.  We'll lose PPC support with this, but that's probably not a loss at this point and it's the best I've been able to accomplish.  As I said, I left the target 10.4 but if the code uses extensions that aren't available on a 10.4 system, then I suppose it won't run on that, or 10.5 for that matter.  More than I'm capable of figuring out at least.  Feel free to test and add to the first post if you'd like.

Sorry to jump in this thread but I have a very weird issue with these builds. 
Glowpoint overrides on AoA ships don't seem to work while playing with WiH. They work only when selected with AoA.
But they work on the original builds. 

Does this happen for other people too? Or is it a issue on my end? Can someone confirm this?

[The E]

Builds have been updated to current trunk.

[Arpit]

Builds have been updated to current trunk.

Huh, they are still not working for me? 
I don't get glowpoint overrides on Aoa ships. 
Please help me!

[Echelon9]

The E, could you please reissue the BP.patch file against a more recent trunk version. Will save each coder manually fixing up a few spots each time now.

[The E]

I've updated the patch. Sorry for the delay,

[Yarn]

The patch doesn't apply completely to revision 9748. Could you update it please?

[The E]

I've updated it to current trunk

[Yarn]

Starting with trunk revision 9783, the BP patch no longer compiles in MSVC 2012. These errors are produced:

Code: [Select]

[The E]

You need to do a "Rebuild All" to fix those.

[Yarn]

I tried a clean build and got these errors:

Code: [Select]

5>..\..\code\model\modelread.cpp(2715): error C2664: 'parse_modular_table' : cannot convert parameter 2 from 'void (__cdecl *)(char *)' to 'void (__cdecl *)(const char *)'

...
6>LINK : fatal error LNK1181: cannot open input file 'C:\Games\FreeSpace2\fs2_open\projects\MSVC_2011\Release SSE2\code.lib'

It might be time to update the patch again (and, with AVX added to trunk, it most definitely is).

[The E]

Done.

[Yarn]

Are you sure you updated the patch? The patch is still dated August 17, and I'm still getting the two errors above.

[The E]

Ah. sorry, I uploaded it to the wrong folder on the ftp. Should be fixed now.

[Yarn]

Now I'm not even able to open the project. If I try to do so, I get these errors:

It's working now.
