Hello
I've tested your game on my Mac. Works well.
The only point is that the Application menu --> Quit doesn't work (this menu is always created on an OSX application)
I guess you have not tested this in you program
You can do it easily by using special OSX constants :
Code: Select all
Select EventMenu()
CompilerIf #PB_Compiler_OS = #PB_OS_MacOS
Case #PB_Menu_Quit
...
Case #PB_Menu_About
...
Case #PB_Menu_Preferences
...
CompilerEndIf
EndSelect

Thanks for mentioning this Mindphazer.
I had not even noticed that the macOS Application menu was there for my app.
About and Preferences are greyed out. How can these be activated?
Can BindMenuEvent(#Menu, MenuItem, @Callback()) be used with the macOS Application Menu ?
If it can, what #Menu, MenuItem numbers reference the macOS Application Menu ?

Hey BlindMan. Cool game. Just wondering how did you create your installer for the Mac. Was looking to do something similar, but can't seem to find anything that's easy and straightforward.
Thanks

For Windows installers, I used

Excellent, thanks. I also use InnoTools for Windows, but never found a suitable, simple solutions for the Mac.
Cheers.
