Is the Mac/Linux port almost done?

[Happy Cheeze]

It has been a few months since I last asked, any update on where it is at would be greatly appreciated :)

Pretty sure they stopped working on it. At least for now?

A: Yes, but not anytime soon. Though we definitely want to get these ports done, we are currently dedicated to new games as well, and we cannot afford to spend the time or resources on the ports right now. Hopefully we can finish them somewhere down the line, though.

Close enough.

When it's done!™

No yeah, you're perfectly justified to bring that up, and even to be upset about it. It really was our plan from the beginning to get those ports done quickly, but it proved to be a trickier situation than we initially predicted, and we had to change our priorities over to the new projects we're working on right now.

We're aware of how that decision probably makes a lot of our fans and customers upset, but it wasn't a call that we made lightly. It was taken out of necessity.

If I can throw the RWS name around like a Christmas Patch present at potential opportunities, I would really dig a chance to try porting to Linux for/with you guys, free of charge. I'm modestly familiar with Unreal engines other than just playing, but have a fair deal of knowledge debugging and solving Linux build/run errors. I've kicked around doing a port of Dead Meets Lead ( http://deadmeetslead.org/). Maybe if I did - and brought it to RWS - I would regret nothing?
EDIT: Also, I'm sure a working Linux port would put a Mac port way further along, being similar in several ways under-the-hood.
