Hey guys, while I don't have an ETA for a Mac build (aside from SoonÖ) we are still working very hard on getting the Sisi client up and running on Macs. Rest assured that this has not been forgotten about, and this is a very high priority issue for us (I'm a Mac user myself ).
I will try to keep this thread up to date with information about where we are upto, but often there is not a lot to tell aside from "we are working on it".
Sorry for the inconvenience, and thanks for your patience.

I think I speak for others when I say that I do appreciate that you are continuing to work on it and that you have given some update, albeit one that is very, very detail light (for example, if it's that you're waiting on just the browser that would give us a better idea of how long it might take). However, I'd also like to express serious disappointment over the timing here, particularly re: the Dominion changes and supercap test happening right now. For most of us this might have been a once in the game experience, and we may never be able to fly a super cap again. So bad luck, but regrettable nonetheless .
So if it was not something related to the core of the game (graphics engine or whatever), I hope next time you'll look into maybe cutting out whatever piece is the hold up so you can at least get out something that can be used to test other features, even if that meant that the browser for example just came up with an empty window and a big "Work in Progress." Looking forward to trying out some of the other features maybe before Dominion's launch though. Thanks for you continued work.

Thank you. Very good to hear.
I'm as disappointed as the others that we rabid Apple fans don't get to play with the others in the supercap tests...but as long as there's something to test (and make sure works) before Dominion goes live, I'll be happy.

Hello everyone,
As Nimbus points out, we have not lost any sight of this and continue to work on it, and will be resolving it as soon as humanly possible. I would also like to point out that we cannot give all of the technical details of issues we face. I assure you that we have looked into, and will continue to look into, all options of how to handle this temporary problem - including all of the suggestions that have been made here, as well as many others not mentioned here (as we are directly involved in the development and are working on this every day).
We do not like this situation. And we appreciate that this is frustrating to many of our players as well. We appreciate any patience that you can afford us while we work through this issue.

Native client! The Mac pretendulation is just a sad faded image of what a real client on the Mac for this game could be.

Thanks for the update. Good to know you're working on it and actually use Macs in the Dev team - thought I'd spotted a few in the lectures / roundtables.

Just set up Boot Camp on your mac and boot up as a PC for Sisi.
Not that hard to do.
Although I am worried that this close to Dec 1 (6 weeks?) there is no Mac client on Sisi - fearful that there won't be one for Tranq when Dominion goes live....

You just suggested people spend $150 to play around on the test server.

At least you got to play during the events. Go QQ elsewhere kthx.
What's going to happen, is Dominion will be released BEFORE this is fixed, and then CCP will get a flood of complaints from Mac players that Dominion doesn't work properly. Apocrypha 2.0 >_>;

this isnt a tech support thread, this is a "why it sux to own a mac AND pay for eve at the same time" thread.
But seriously, is the mac TQ client gonna have a bunch of bugs? caz i still havent been reimbursed (petitioning is a lost cause) for the **** that happened due to the apocrypha bugs. |

In that case what the heck are you doing posting in this thread? Based on your writing you do not have a very firm grasp on English, so let me be the second to inform you that if you want some generic PC tech support this is pretty obviously not the thread for it. Duh.

CCP Heimdall, CCP Nimbus: Soon TM is fine. Updating us with "Nothing yet" is very cool and as important as "fixed". I'm as concerned about the actuality of how close this is cutting it. Hell Transgaming vs CCP in general, but all the winging and legit theory's aside progress updates are incredibly important. Even if it is no progress. Hell especially if its no progress. Silence is a killer.
I for one will body blow any rotten fruit thrown @CCPNimbus because you stood up and said Soon TM (Not rotten eggs thought, i have my limits).
Incompatible build": The test server fluxes from one phase into the next. Very fast at this point in time. Quite often the webserver they host the patches on doesn't get updated straight away, but they do it as soon as they can. You can try and guess the patch download link (easier than you'd think if you know the build numbers), but chances are when your patched you will find the server is in VIP mode for CCP testing only. So this with "Incompatible build" are caught between changes. It is NOT a bug. Wait and a new patch will be served up and you will be able to log on shortly after that.
So for god sake be patient, its a test server and as such has NO requirement to be working for us, except on nominated dates.
This has nothing to do with the mac client though. There is no patch support for the MAC client on Sisi atm, so I've no idea how you got this far.

The test server is one thing. People on mac's living in 0.0 are now missing the opportunity to test the new sov system, which basically totally changes the game.
But what we should all be hoping for now is a working client when Dominion launches. If we come down to a week from release and still have no working client for test server, it will probably mean for safety mac users living in 0.0 should move their most valuable assets to low sec npc station. ex-carriers, dreads, JF's etc...

Hi all,
There is progress and we are now near a potential Singularity client candidate. It will be with you all SoonÖ.
We still very much care about you all and we are still working on Dominion support for Mac.

Thank you for the update at least. It's been really, really disappointing to miss out on all the cool tests going on for Dominion, but it's good that at least it looks like we'll probably have a non-last minute client before it actually goes live and thus won't be forced to evacuate critical stuff from nullsec. Looking forward to seeing Dominion at last and getting a week or two maybe to test out the changes.
