Xcode project to build minetest

This Xcode project can be used to build minetest-c55.

Use the branch delta if you want to build minetest-delta. But that branch is pretty old.

Requirements

This was tested on OS X 10.7 with Xcode 4. It includes all needed 3rd party libraries. It builds a 32bit 10.6 compatible application bundle.

How to build minetest

Getting the code

$ git clone https://github.com/celeron55/minetest.git
$ cd minetest
$ git clone https://github.com/toabi/minetest-mac.git
$ cd minetest-mac

There are now two easy ways to get your app. The final product always ends up in ./build/(Release|Debug)/.

Commandline

• Run xcodebuild in the minetest-mac folder

Xcode GUI

• Doubleclick the .xcodeproj
• Hit "Build & Run"
• If everything is OK, the application should launch.

Targets and Schemes

When developing, use the Debug scheme. It just builds the application bundle and doesn't do other magic. Therefore only changed files are recompiled.

When releasing an application bundle then use the Release scheme. It will automatically update the VERSION_STRING with the output of git describe and also write the version into the Info.plist so the Finder can display it.

So you don't like to build?

You can also download a build from there. But they may be old.
