Yeah ... we would of course provide MacOSX binaries, but as you may know, none of us have a Mac.

I mean.. we would do it if someone would donate a mac to us.. *hint hint*
(preferably a MacBook Pro)

I'm guessing you want that with CodeWarrior, right?

Hi I use a mac.
Recently I have been developing a RTS game in lua (Don't ask me if its fast enough, I don't know yet.). Incidentally created something like LOVE, though of course nowhere as feature complete and probably lower level (Haven't looked at LOVE api yet so I am not sure.).
Just found this a couple of weeks ago.
I downloaded the source but unfortunately I don't know make files (Betrays my experience at C at only 6 months :\ ). That also means I haven't managed to get it to compile. I don't have access to a linux or windows machine. (I wouldn't know how to develop on a windows machine though).
I'll spend more time on the week end to try to get this working. If I don't reply that means I gave up.

I think I lost at level 3: "Making love_opengl ..."
Worked with the Linux version love source code
I am suspecting there is no "-lGL" in Mac OS X, just -framework OpenGL and -framework GLUT, so I need to use -framework SDL instead of -lSDL.
if I use -framework SDL I can't use -lSDLmain; it results in the error:
"/usr/bin/ld: Undefined symbols:
_SDL_main"
I need to compile an Objective-C code called "SDLMain.m". (That's what I did for my own project). But I suck at make files and I couldn't get it to compile with it. so I get:
"/usr/bin/ld: Undefined symbols:
_main"
I followed the compiler errors to get to where i got to:
My compiler (g++/gcc) doesn't seem to let int/unsigned and GLint/GLuint to be used interchangeably, you guys might want to investigate that.
EDIT: I use a macbook with mac os x.4 tiger, btw

I managed to compile everything by:
Editing SDLMain.m (I put it in src/opengl, random place, but wtev..) to comment out the line with "SDL_main"
In the rest of the makefiles, added -framework Lua -framework SDL -framework Cocoa src/opengl/SDLMain.m
and replaced their respective -lXXX thingies
Then I removed "-shared" option everywhere. That tag doesn't exist on mac os x.
However when I run love, it results in segmentation fault when loading the timer module.
I am going to try a couple more tricks.

I reinstalled libpng and removed old copies.... yay!
I am going to download love again and do this 'neatly'.
I'll upload a .app INTEL ONLY binary that I am 90% sure only works on my computer. Someone else please test it.

EDIT: Hmm, actually, if we want to have a mac build with same source code as the linux and window builds the GLuint/ int thing is going to have to be fixed.
mac version src:
http://appleide.sitesled.com/lovesrc.zip
I editted all the make files and many source code files so its pretty messy. Need to clean it up.
