Box2D Forums

For those of us that don't program in C++, and who happened to run across Crayon Physics, is there a way to run the Box2D engine on a Mac 10.4? I tried the XCode file I found here in the forums, but don't know what to do with it now that I've downloaded it... And I don't know how to load Crayon to it once I've got the XCode working. Help a noob out?

Box2D is a physics library for programmers. If you're not a programmer, then this isn't the place for you. If you're running a mac and want to use Box2D in a language other than C++, then you could try using one of the available ports such as JavaBox2D and Ruby Box2D, both work on mac.

I think what you're trying to do is play Crayon Physics on a mac by dumping the game code in the mac version of the Box2D "engine". Unfortunately, that's not how things work and you won't be able to do this. Try running the game in crossover office.

<sigh>
In other words, "Get a PC"?

Or install windows with bootcamp or parallels I believe crayon physics uses directx for it's graphics, so even if you'd have the sourcecode, it's not going to compile in xcode.
