Are you talking about how to build one from xcode? I have never done this, but I assume its the same as building a new exe in visual studio. You open the project and build it.

Yes, it's as simple as that

Ok, this is what you do.

You take the Torque Demo OSX program and place it in a separate folder.

Then you do the following:

Right click Torque Demo OSX and select 'Show Package Contents'
Copy the main.cs in your example folder and place it in the 'Contents' folder

Now copy your game folder (i.e. starter.fps, tutorial.base, etc.) and place it in the 'Contents' folder with your main.cs file in it.

Now go through your game folder and delete all of the .cs files (leave the .cs.dso files).

Now run your app and enjoy!
