Technically, you could make a source that can run on a mac computer, but all of the sources released currently only work on Windows and Linux. If you run a virtual machine on your mac computer, or if you have that software that allows you to boot into Windows / Linux (Parallel I think it's called), then you could run one that way.

Was just about to mention this :)

My source also runs on OSX, it is however, completely featureless.

Emulating an operating system for something like an MMO is generally not advisable, lol.

I think he's referring to a playable server, not a server as in running a server.

My source would work on it as well lols.

Oh hey, Mono is for Mac OSX as well. I never knew that but it makes perfect sense now that I think about it. :facepalm:

I was referring to your VM shit.

Playing on a private server from OS X it's possible (did it myself), but running a server on OS X, I agree with you, not actual need of running it under that OS.

Actually, if you get rid of the p/invoke and replace all the '\' characters used in Windows for paths with '/' any server would work fine on OS X compiled with mono.
