Up until recently I only had access to a PPC Mac. This changed recently, although it's only a Xserve, but shortly we should also have an Intel based Mac mini.

sig11 wrote:Hmmm, thanks! But in addition to the testing, hika mentioned, I think simply compiling the file qcommon/vm_ppc.c in Intel mode won't create a working Mac Intel engine ;-) ... since this is the heart of the JIT compiler and creates PPC opcodes. Maybe simply using qcommon/vm_x86.c instead will already work. Then I only need to understand XCode ;-) ... so far I was doing a lot of trial and error with this IDE (I'm just not an IDE kind of guy ...)

No, this is not intentional. I simply happen to have 10.4.X only. And yes, I'd like to have the error message. Maybe I can make some sense of it.
