Just wondering if it exist for Mac yet.
I've just changed to a Mac however I do love Newgen, if needed I can use my Windows XP on here I just would prefer not to.

And I dont want Anti-Mac Fan boys please, I want to know if there is a way around using windows as i have more software on the mac and it's an arse to switch between them both.

Thanks in Advance to anyone who can help :3

It is possible to boot Windows on your Mac, however you have bought a Mac, deal with the consequences of incompatibility to almost everything.

Personally I think it will never be for a mac, since 95% of all mappers uses Windows, and since NewGen was build for Windows from start, its hard to change the code and after that compile the code so its executeable on Linux or Mac.

As previously mentioned I don't care if you dislike Mac as you obviously can't read I'll explain it in more simple words.

You didn't answer my question.

Also FYI

It's not that hard mate to recode for Mac etc mate it's more of issue of demand to make it worth doing.

I have a Mac with windows dual boot so telling me it's possible it irrelevant.

"incompatibility to almost everything" Warcraft 3 has always been supported for mac hence why i bother to ask.

"since 95% of all mappers uses Windows" and you got your figures from where? there are alternatives for mac I just prefer NewGen it's called support.:thup:

Please please learn to give relevant information just because you don't know or like does not give you the right to mislead and annoy people.

The NewGen WE won't work on Mac at the moment, and I've never heard of any plans to make it compatible. Maybe you could try running JassHelper (the program that preprocesses the map script) from command line? I recall people having problems with it, but it might work for you.

I don't own a Mac, so I can't really help much.

Vexorian is not planning on making NewGen for Mac.

You can use Wine (Vexorian uses this, I believe).

And: Don't ask a question then be an ass about it when someone doesn't give you a straight-line answer. While Themis's answer does curve a bit, it answers your question.

    Looks like Google fixed whatever mistake that made the recipes on the site go crazy and we are no longer trending towards a recipe site lol - I don't care though because it motivated me to spend alot of time on the site improving it and at least now the content people are looking at is not stupid and embarrassing like it was when I first got back into this like 5 years ago.
  • The Helper The Helper:
    Plus - I have a pretty bad ass recipe collection now! That section of the site is 10 thousand times better than it was before

    I got one more day of community service and then I'm free from this nonsense! I polished a cop car today for a funeral or something I guess
  • Varine Varine:
    They also were digging threw old shit at the sheriff's office and I tried to get them to give me the old electronic stuff, but they said no. They can't give it to people because they might use it to impersonate a cop or break into their network or some shit? idk but it was a shame to see them take a whole bunch of radios and shit to get shredded and landfilled

    Hmm, how do I change my signature?
  • tom_mai78101 tom_mai78101:
    Signatures can be edit in your account profile. As for the old stuffs, I'm thinking it's because Blizzard is now under Microsoft, and because of Microsoft Xbox going the way it is, it's dreadful.

    @tom_mai78101 I must be blind. If I go on my profile I don't see any area to edit the signature; If I go to account details (settings) I don't see any signature area either.
  • The Helper The Helper:
    You can get there if you click the bell icon (alerts) and choose preferences from the bottom, signature will be in the menu on the left there https://www.thehelper.net/account/preferences
