Code Editor on Mac?
Is there a chance that Code Editor is coming to the Mac?
The editor is there, but you must have Visual Studio installed in order to compile.

And when the EE Symbols are released, can i make everything with the code editor(all functions of the engine) or are there other things which are missing, say to make the tutorials...

And also a Question to not open another Thread:

We are working mainly on Windows and we've a problem with shadows and Ambient Occlusion and physics.

First: we have a Room which is closed only one door and only a sunlight, but the room is nearly full lighted why?

Second: our Ambient Shadows are jizzing, i don't know how to name it.
Antialiasing doesn't change anything AF also.

Third: We have a Geforce 480 GTX and a scene where we let a coal mil explode with 5,000 polys and 30 pieces, the fps frops on 12-14fps which is un acceptable.

last can you tell me how to get the explosion effect back?
two releases ago you removed it, and the tutorials stopped working also!

Thanks for the help

VS is required, xcode support is unknown, ill check it in the future.

for shadows, you need to have a shadow barricade (model that blocks the light), important is face culling.

explosion is in tutorials.

ok thanks

what is a light blockade?

The tutorial doesnt work, he says the ExplosionFx is not found.

there are other tutorials which also don't work, it can't compile, because functions where used which doesn't exist....

it's a closed mesh! with only one entrance
so it should block the light, and only let the light in near the room,
it is darker in the room but only a bit!

I use the SDK correct,
the other Tuts function correctly!
What is with the PhysX problem?

Post screen for shadow problem. The explosion is included in one of tutorials. What about physx?
I'm not much familiar with Xcode auto completion. I use visual studio

Hi,
just chasing up if the code editor will work on Mac soon. I downloaded the latest SDK and I can write programme in the code editor, however when I try to "Play" it asks for Visual Studio.
Thanks
