TGE Engine Code Interchangeable On Mac/PC?

by Scott Doerrfeld · in Torque Game Engine · 09/20/2007 (9:18 am) · 2 replies

Are the engine files the exact same between the Mac and PC versions of TGE 1.5.2? i.e. Can I replace the engine/ folder in the TGE Mac download with the engine/ folder in the TGE Windows download and compile with the same results? I have tried this and the Mac version does compile with the Windows engine/ folder I am just not sure if they are somehow configured differently in a way that could lead to problems. Thanks!

Yes, they're the same. The platform specific stuff is located under the "platform" directory and is contained in all download packages (Mac, Win, Linux). So, download once, compile everywhere :-)

And it avoids getting that *-#@ installer on the PC side! ;)
Mac rules.
