Title: Moving towards Mac support?
Post by: KicknGuitar on February 25, 2014, 10:28:13 am: From what I've read, GE:S has been windows only due to it's use of the 2007 Source SDK. With plans to move to the 2013 SDK (http://store.steampowered.com/news/10962/) will GES 4.3 sport a mac equivalent? Are there any plans to do so? How realistic are our GES for Mac dreams?

Thanks for the info. Ever since I heard of this years ago I've been meaning to check it out. Now that I have a computer powerful enough to run games via Steam I've been going back to see what games I missed out on. GES has always look out of this world. Thanks for the GE nostalgia.

Last time I checked the progress page it had been at like 50 or so % for months, making me question if it just hadn't been updated yet or if no one has been able to get any more progress due to real life and/or laziness. :P I hope it's before the end I next school semester so I could have a fun senior year with my friends. lol Course I'm not saying to rush it, or anything I can wait because 4.2.4 is amazing enough, I'm jus saying the I hope it'll be out in the next school year, but it doesn't have to be if the developers aren't able to get enough free time to make it happen that fast.

Good to hear. Fingers crossed I'll get to play GoldenEye once again.

Cheers.

Thanks and keep up the sterling work!

As much as we'd like to, and as much as we've promised in the past, our next release is unlikely to support OSX. We had planned to support it previously as we were moving to a newer version of the Source Engine but plans had to change when we discovered just how broken that version was which proved a major setback.

Most likely, yes.
