Good news! I've managed to compile 1.04 for OSX. I've also fixed the "Save as" bug (This update should work in OSX 10.4 as well as OSX 10.5). I've also found and fixed a sneaky bug having to do with brush scaling at load time. I'll try to package up both a Mac and Windows version of ... Constructor 1.041 this weekend!

But before I do this - I need a Mac tester. Any takers?

Jaimi

PS - Sorry, there will be no OSX 10.3 version, at least for a while (if ever).

Well, this is kind of depressing - does nobody want to test the Mac 1.04 Constructor? I've fixed some problems. Honest.

If I can get my Mac setup for dev this weekend, I'll test it. I've been saying that for weeks now and haven't gotten around to it.

It's a PPC G5 with 10.4, so I'm not sure how much call there would be for it. Depending on time, I could probably help with the build environment as well. I'm hell busy right now with GG responsibilities, my day job, and finishing my Masters' program, but I might be able to give it a go. I'd just have to talk to Matt and Eric about it if I can clear a bit of my schedule.

I'd be happy to help test, but I can't do anything with it until saturday AM. I have a 15" PPC Powerbook w/ 10.4.

This is very good news. And I'd be happy to test the new version out (though I'm not a very advanced Constructor user). I'm on a Mac Pro Intel Chip, OS X 10.5.1

Many thanks for your efforts with all this.

@Andy, Stephan:

Please do not share the link with others at this time, it's a very big file, and my poor DSL connection would be swamped!

Thanks!

@Robert
I'm not sure why you're asking the on the Constructor forums. Both TGE and TGEA 1.8.1 compile and run on my G5.
