Does anyone know if there are any private servers that also work for mac? If so could i get a link please? Thanks =D

Only an idiot uses Mac anyway. You bough a Mac, obviously you won't have the capacity for making a server anyway.

You can run a C# server on mac via mono if you remove all the P/invokes, unsafe code and other platform specific code (specifically, BinaryReader/Writer, or other logic which does non-endian-aware conversion - assuming Mac on PPC).

Well conquer came out with a mac client so i figured some private servers would have it too lol

Server != Client

Host the server using windows and it will work just fine for the mac client...

Or write it in java or w/e and run it on linux and it will host fine for windows and mac.

It will be easier to create a new source in Carbon/Cocoa :rolleyes:

Or OP could use C++.

C# is far easier to port than both C++ and Objective-C. There's hardly anything to it, unless the server is loaded with P/Invokes. I know many of them P/invoke OpenSSL for the cryptography, but you can replace that with [Only registered and activated users can see links. Click Here To Register...] or some other. What else needs P/invoking?

The problem of endianness isn't going to go away by using Objective-C either, so there's really no benefit to starting from scratch.

You are the idiot by the way.

I don't know, your comments are showing that.
I think that's the reason you're banned :P
