Mac & Windows no longer supported

by jordan4ibanez » Sun Apr 01, 2012 08:34

Guys, i was talking to celeron and due to the recent changes and many new features added into the game, windows and macintosh will no longer be supported. we hope you guys are happy with the latest development version because there is no way that it can be compiled in windows or mac. If you do not believe me see for yourself:
[04:21] <jordan4ibanez> But HOW?! I mean noone can compile it!!
[04:22] <celeron55> hmm, you're right, i don't think it can be compiled on windows.
[04:22] <sfan5> :( :( :(
[04:22] <jeija> NO! D:
[04:23] <kahrl> hang on celeron let me compile it, or at least try.
[04:27] == sfan5 [~sfan5@p4FEB326C.dip.t-dialin.net] has quit #minetest-delta.
[04:38] <kahrl> i guess you're right, there is no way to compile it :/
[04:39] <celeron55> i will have to notify the community tomorrow.
[04:39] <jordan4ibanez> wtf no
[04:40] <celeron55> yes, i'm sorry but we can only use linux now

So i'm sorry guys if you are on windows or mac then you will have to either give up and switch to linux or play something else, we sincerely apologize.

It is April Fools day, but they could be saying the truth too just to get us thinking that it isn't true but it actually is. But I bet about 70% of Minetest's players would quit Minetest if it is true. Well if they love updating,
