| Post subject: | Building with CMake on Mac |
Hi, can anyone give me some instruction on how to build Horde3d on Mac, please? I'm unable to build using CMake. I get an error when I attempt to run CMake. Is there a wiki page or a forum post or something that details all the steps needed to build on Mac? I've tried searching, but I can't find anything that will help me get running on my mac. Thanks! |

Can you post the error messages you are getting? I haven't had a chance to build the Mac version lately.

I could test the building with the official package from SourceForge on a MacBook Pro. The build using XCode was successfull. I have written a short description in the Wiki. The description might be not 100% accurate, since I had to write it from my memories without physical access to the Mac. Unfortunately on the MacBook with its GF 9400M the demos had some graphical issues. Maybe you have a better result. |

Wow, thanks a lot for the help, guys! I just tried the instructions Volker added to the Wiki, but I'm still getting an error.(Though it's a different error) This is the error I get from CMake after following Volker's instructions: CMake Error: Could not create named generator XCode I tried googling this, but nothing helped me figure it out. Volker, when I finally do get running on my laptop I'll be sure to bug anything I find. I'm a QA lead at a game company so it's what I do all day anyways

Do you have XCode installed on your mac? |

Yes =) Though I've only been using XCode for iPhone app development. Do you think there's some component that isn't installed? |

Any XCode installer should bring all the needed stuff (as long as you didn't uncheck the 'command-line tools' option in the installer).How did you obtain CMake - i.e. did you install the binaries from the CMake site, build via macports/fink, or did you build your own from source? The macports/fink approach is very brittle if you are running Snow Leopard, as is building your own (various 64-bit issues with respect to GCC). |

I used the CMake installer package from here after installing XCode. The XCode installation wasn't done by me, so I can't give you any hints for that. Considering the CMake installation you must NOT skip the installation of the command line tools. |

Aha! That was it. I had installed the iPhone SDK version of Xcode, which I thought contained all the same files. Installing the vanilla Xcode resolved my issue and the engine built fine. Thanks a lot for the help, guys! |

The iPhone SDK does install all the normal parts of XCode - I use the iPhone SDK Installer exclusively for all my development, including Horde. However, the iPhone SDK may come with different packages selected by default.

I also recently installed snow leopard. So that may have had something to do with it. And also may be why the samples are rendering as black screens on my computer.(though I oddly see some things moving in them at times, just really dark) |

Seems like you've run into the same issue as me, camcez. Are you using an nVidia card too? See here for my previous findings (no fixes yet though) viewtopic.php?f=3&t=837 |

Did you ever find a resolution to your issue? What kind of laptop do you have? I have a Macbook Pro 17in Core2Duo 3GHz 9600m graphics card and I'm running Snow Leopard. Sucks this has been a problem for so long. I'd like to use my laptop for development because my computer chair at the PC is uncomfortable. =) |

Not a laptop. Mac pro with nvidia graphics. Issue has been around since horde3d revision 135, and the issue occurs on every version of macosx (leopard and snowleopard). It's probably a bug in the nvidia driver, but it would be nice to work around it at least. I was able to isolate the cause of the problem (see my other thread) but can't spend more time implementing a workaround at the moment. |

Wow, that really sucks. I wish that were fixed. As for your article linked at the end of that thread: that artcile is from 2004. I think that's too old to be the issue. I checked the Horde3D code. It doesn't even use those buffers the guy was talking about in the article. |
