Fusion 2.5 Mac Release Date?

[Samer]

Hi,

I'd just like to know if anyone has a rough timeframe for when Fusion 2.5 will be released on Mac?

Thanks.

Samer.

Sorry no firm release date for the home user version of this.
We have rolled it out to schools and educational users so if they don't report any problems we may be able to release it shortly.

Hi Jeff,

Rolled it out to schools? Well, I'm part of Brunel University in London studying Games Design. I've just finished my first year and have broken up for summer. My Lecturer told me the news about Fusion 2.5 coming to Mac. I'm a native Mac user, so I was happy about the news since we mostly use Fusion as part of our course using Windows. Since you have already rolled it out to schools, and I know this will sound a bit needy, is it possible if you guys can arrange a version for me to purchase? Even if it is not ready yet? I'd be happy to report any problems, too.

Thank you and your quick reply is much appreciated.

Samer.

So this will be native to OSX instead of an exporter like iOS?

And are there any details that can be shared about it at this point?

[Jeff]

Its not native its running thru a Wine emulator.
Hopefully we will be ready to roll it out to the public later this summer.

[Jeff]

Preconfigured for easy installation and comes with the MAC export module.
The schools are testing it and if its relatively trouble free then we will figure out how everyone else who is interested can get it.

I look forward to this!

What extensions does the Mac exporter support?

Any more news on this Jeff? I plan to upgrade to 2.5 once it's available.

Basically the same extensions as the iOS exporter, less the iOS-specific ones, plus the Combo Box object.

Not yet but soon.
