on this page of a free software CAD software, on the bottom, i saw that they get a build-bot sponsored from a mac cloud company. in case this is still an issue with spring, it might be worth contacting them, to ask if we could get the same deal.

and yeah.. i see that this looks a lot like spamming, and would not be angry if it was deleted.

See viewtopic.php?f=1&t=38493&p=590080#p590080 - the problem is not missing buildbot power, the problem is that apple chooses not to support gfx features that are necessary to compile Spring.

FYI: It's possible to compile Spring. It's just not possible to run it. :)Silentwings wrote: ↑29 Mar 2019, 13:22 See viewtopic.php?f=1&t=38493&p=590080#p590080 - the problem is not missing buildbot power, the problem is that apple chooses not to support gfx features that are necessary to compile Spring.
Unless some major changes have happened since I last compiled develop branch a couple weeks ago

Re: sponsor for mac buildbox?
Happy to be corrected but I suspect this isn't true without commenting some stuff out? And ofc then, you're not actually compiling "spring" anymore.FYI: It's possible to compile Spring. It's just not possible to run it. :)
Re: sponsor for mac buildbox?
Is there some workaround? Like - when its only the rendering stack thats missing- could that be somehow , like a partially virtual machine consisting only of a gfx stack emulation on top of a older machine? Sure would be slower though, but in springs case...

When I last built, I didn't have to change a thing.Silentwings wrote: ↑29 Mar 2019, 19:22Happy to be corrected but I suspect this isn't true without commenting some stuff out?
