Cider?

Post by Moop »

I was enviously browsing the supcom forums looking at a topic requesting a Mac Port of supcom. It has a link to this http://www.transgaming.com/products/cider/ website. I read through it and though it might be used to make an Intel Mac version of Spring. It claims its easy, but is this possible? Has anyone looked into this thing?

Cider is yet another Transgaming rip-off of Wine's code.

Wow. If you have any doubt about that company, just read thier 'about us' page, noting the complete lack of any mention of the wine codebase.

Also, this topic disappoints me. I expected something funny, such as a parody of WEZEL SPAM KEKEKE! ;_;

Not every topic needs a bunch of twat kids to ruin it, please stay on topic.
Anyway....

Transgaming rip off Wine all the time, Cider is just a library that Wine uses (Wine-Lib). There are long debates on Linux websites about Transgaming.

I would prefer to be referred to as a code monkey. I do some helpful work to improve the engine, but I'm easily distracted.

But you want something on topic. Sure. I think that it would be useful to have instructions in the wiki to install spring on mac using wine, not much effort should be put down this path.

I wasn't directly referring to you but to your post, even though your post itself basically de-railed the topic.

And isn't there a mac port in progress anyway?
