It is possible that a major problem will rear its ugly head and push porting to the Mac off until after WW2's initial release. Not desirable, that's for sure, so we hope this won't happen. No reason to think it will either, just making sure you all understand that until we get into things we won't know everything we need to know. Another aspect of this is if we can support PPC chips. We think G4 and earlier are simply too old to bother supporting. G5 would be good to support, however there's a fairly small number out there and the time to support them may not be worth it. Therefore, it is quite possible that only Intel based Macs will be supported. Again, we won't know until we get into it.

John Kettler Posted April 11, 2008 Share Posted April 11, 2008 jeffsmith, Much appreciate this info! Doesn't matter to me with my lampshade 800 GHz dual boot 1MB SDRAM iMac, but a friend has a very high powered G5 to whom it might.

Omenowl Posted April 11, 2008 Share Posted April 11, 2008 I am actually looking forward to a Mac version. I got a macbook pro within the last month and find I prefer using it to my xp desktop. Admittedly, the mac dual boots with vista, but after being underwhelmed by vista I would rather just play the mac version. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AndrewTF Posted April 11, 2008 Share Posted April 11, 2008 Cool! BTW, I have a high-end G5 that I'm not planning on replacing anytime soon. Don't make me play CM on my wifes MacBook! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
flamingknives Posted April 11, 2008 Share Posted April 11, 2008 Superb. I've recently bought a new macbook pro (uber shiny - and correspondingly pricy ) but I'm going to have to wait for a few more paychecks before getting windoze (if I do) If CM:SF Mac comes out it's an instant buy. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
