That small hope? Works for me! The build now uses a Mojave VM, that must be just far enough back in time so the non-Retina compatibility mode can be activated. First result is here, still not signed. 0.2.9: https://download.armagetronad.org/blog/2021/03/07/build-alpha-0.2.9.2_alpha_z2567/ 0.2.8.3: h...

I'll have to give up solving the 0.2.X Retina problem in code. In principle, it's super easy to get the information, it's all in the Cocoa_GL_GetDrawableSize function in the SDL2 code. But the required NSView is not accessible in SDL 1.2. You'd think it would be in SDL_SysWMinfo, but that's also onl...

I'll put up a server, but no recordings from me this time. It's Z-Wife's birthday.

Only Tank can help, he's usually on IRC. Not right now, though. I'll try to remember pointing him here.

maybe I can nab a 16 GB Pro. Turns out, I can! 512 GB SSD, too, and a fresh battery. This should do fine for years, and it only cost an arm and half a leg. (520 Euro instead of the 400 I used to aim for with past used notebooks, seems fair) <happy dance> Edit: The two tests didn't work for me. The ...

Heh, sorry, I'm a slow thinker when it comes to things like that :) I think this is a solid model and if it was the only way to share links, yeah, I can see how that would be good. But let's say your system takes over the world and becomes the de-facto standard for the next 10000 years. But then som...

Another build to try in addition to the one from the last post: https://download.armagetronad.org/staging/snapshots/2021/0.4.0_alpha_z5072/macOS/armagetronad-experimental-0.4.0_alpha_z5072.dmg This one is from 0.4 where we do use SDL 2 (Based on voodoo's own work, IIRC). Essentially, it changes some...

Well, it might have been the other way round; when we request 800x600, we get 800x600 pixels and render to 400x300. Anyway, try again: https://download.armagetronad.org/staging/wip/2021/0.2.8.3.7_alpha_z1625/macOS/armagetronad-wip-0.2.8.3.7_alpha_z1625.dmg This time, I set NSHighResolutionCapable to...

Yeah, that flag is only there since SDL 2.0.1 , and you then have to use two different functions to get your resolution; the regular ones will give sizes in points, only the new ones in pixels. When you set a window size, is the size given in pixels or points? So, if you set an 800x600 Window, do yo...

Interesting. On Windows, we had similar problems: https://gitlab.com/armagetronad/armagetronad/-/issues/33 The solution there was to simply tell the system we're querying each screen's DPI setting and scale our stuff accordingly. Which we don't, but we're sort of doing the right things anyway (not c...

So yeah! It very much looks possible! Technologies used: homebrew to install the library and build dependencies the regular unix autotools build process with a tiny tweak for OpenGL dylibbundler to pack the required libraries into the app bundle and rewrite the executable to use those create-dmg to ...

It's complete gibberish to me. It's stuff that interacts with stuff. Isolated neat concepts, but what the hell is the point for the user? What can the human actually do with the system?
