No. From what I understand, it's on Valve time at the moment, so it's effectively in limbo. And yes, you will have to port your mod to SE2009. The only Source engine they ported and plan to port to Mac (and eventually Linux?) is SE2009. Not SE2007, SE2006, or SE2004. Maybe we'll see the L4D engine branch ported too, but that's the only mainline engine we're likely going to get. I seriously doubt they want to port the older engines over to Mac/Linux, when they've outright refused to rewrite their SDK tools for portability (apparently they're nasty MFC-based monstrosities). It's a shame, because it'd mean I wouldn't be tied to Windows nearly as much as I am now. I really miss Unix-based OSes and tools. --michi _______________________________________________ To unsubscribe, edit your list preferences, or view the list archives, please visit: http://list.valvesoftware.com/mailman/listinfo/hlcoders
