Does BB3D work on macs? Do you have to buy a seperate version? |
| ||
No, there is a BMAX Version for Mac, see "Products". |
| ||
Yes, if you want to run b3d programs on a Mac, use BlitzMax + MiniB3D. MiniB3D is free. |
| ||
ok, this is redundant but I have to say it... MiniB3D works on Macs?! O.O What are the downsides to MiniB3D in comparison to B3D? |
| ||
Yes, and Linux as well. Minib3d could have some issues regaring parenting and turning. I didn't get EntityAlpha to work on my PC. That could be related to minib3d using OpenGL instead of DirectX. A nice feature about minib3d is that you can read and edit the source. So if you run into any problems, theoretically, you can solve them yourself. |

Ok, thanks. Ill see how that works (personally, I hate Macs) |

How do you install minib3d |
| ||
You'd have to ask that question in the minib3d section of the forum. If you get an answer, it might help others with the same question later on. |
