Without any cheeky answers, (because I am a windows user and Mac's are alien to me) why is the iOS Exporter only available for use for Mac's?
Is there no way to use the iOS Exporter in Windows to test your creations?

It requires Xcode to compile for iOS devices and Apple doesnt seem to want to release Xcode for Windows. Which I really hate because I would love to not have to invest in mac.
Wow, I never noticed that before. Apple is being a *****! If you have a tablet or a ipod is do you necessarily still have to have a Mac?
I would really like to use the iOS Exporter to develop games for Apple devices with 2.5. I am just trying to figure out is this more a issue from the Apple side or is this a developer issue where ClickTeam has just not provided a Exporter support with Windows?
Is there any workarounds?
No workarounds. You will need a Mac Book Pro or similar Mac Desktop running Mountain Lion or later. It's beyond Clickteam's control. A Mac is needed to compile to xCode. Alternatively, you can just 'hire' a Mac online for a small price here www.MacinCloud.com or just purchase one.
Also, please refrain from using language like that on the forums. We do have minors here.
darkmanx_429, I'm not sure where you are located, but Craigslist may be a good place to find a good secondhand Mac. SOMETIMES, not often but sometimes there will be some good prices there. Mac's just generally are very good about retaining their value. If you are looking for new though, a Mac mini may be a good solution pricewise.
Oops...Sorry Kids. My bad Danny!Quote:

What part?
I looked at your profile, didn't see it there, but I did see your Castlevania/Contra crossover project. I remember seeing that on the Castlevania forums years ago when I was working on Bloodletting. Did you ever release that?
Just a heads up, no problem.
It is an unfortunate situation to be in, however, the Mac In Cloud technique works brilliantly. I used it for months on Client App development and it is very affordable.
Hi clickers and clickteam! As Danny said you can using mac in cloud system, but you can use mac in virtual machine such as: VM Ware Player, VM Ware Workstation and Virtual Box. It is slow solution, but this good for price, it is absolutely free and this working nice! Try this method, I used this method and it is done!
Florida ,Pisces. I am still working on that project, it's called: Vamprotector. I just posted a thread on it here for the first time on the Clickteam Forums:Quote:

Usually, I just hang out on my thread at the Castlevania Dungeon Forums.
Here is a current vid: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mWsgS...feature=gp-n-y. It's pretty far but far from complete but I'm getting there.
Since that time you were working on Bloodletting, I got a Bachelor of Science in Video Game Art and Design and moved from the West back to the East Coast. I am currently about to buy my first house with my wife too. So I've been busy! You can always shoot a PM to me whenever you want! lol
Thanks for the tips crasyorchos! I just want to make sure before I invest in the iOS Exporter I am able to use it to test and design my creations!
Then why not a program like phonegap setup via web to compile your software and sign it via web? I honestly don't know why phonegap doesn't just setup a Mac and network it, then send the files over to compile, when complete move it to your account. Everyone says you need all this voodoo, why not setup a service to do the voodoo for you? Charge $5/yr and you may find the users will pay for the equipment.Quote:
