1  The Ur-Quan Masters Re-Release / General UQM Discussion / Re: Can it run in OS X yet? on: January 07, 2003, 12:41:25 pm
Okay, I have to admit that I am *way* out of my league here.  Before upgrading to X, the only unix I used was in school--and that's pretty much limited to Pine, Elm, Banners, ps, ls and that a few other toys.

The only programming course I had was the intro course.  While I am currently learning Unix for X (the wonderful O'Reily book) and Pratical C (again, another cool O'Reily book), I am no where proficient enough with the system and programming to contribute to UQM.  (As an aside, however, I did manage to install Fink and do some fiddling, but I digress).

Gettinig UQM to run on my own is the reason why I got the darn books in the first place, but right now I'm going to get the basics down.  Which is a down right shame, since I've been waiting to play UQM since I saw it on my friends' 486 way back in 1998.  

So, I'm going to keep reading the Forums and be a patient little Mac user.  I've been waiting 5 years to play UQM, I can wait a wee bit longer.

To the rest o'my mac brothers and sisters, good luck on setting it up.  I just know when I'm way out of my league.

Later.

Heya EE:

If you're familiar with programming and Unix, you can download the source and get to work on debugging and helping everyone get the game going for X.  Otherwise, you're going to have to be patient and wait just a bit longer.
