Minetest 0.4.4 for any intel mac. Intel minetest executable in toabi's newest mac app. A lot of problems and only connecting to server works but better than nothing!

Its 0.4.4 damnit!

well, I only built 0.4.4 for ppc for less errors but it only built intel so this executable is the result inside toabi's app.

Has anybody ever tested this? I don't have a mac, so I would not know how this works.

If this is successful, will you make a build of 0.4.7 as well?

If this is successful, will you buy a mac to play Minetest on mac?

I am building this in very old mac with different processor so 0.4.7 may take time but I will try.

Its 0.4.7 damnit!

why is there a 0 at end? with this pace, it will take about 50 years just to go to 1.0.0

Does it make any difference if we have a 1 at the beginning?

well, 0 at beginning just seems to me to be useless for next 50 years of developing so why is it there?

The first digit is the major version number. A "1" would mean that its a final release, while a "0" means the software is still in beta/development.

so when it turns 1.#.# you are not supposed to change it anymore?
