I have a problem...

I'm sorry if this thread is in the wrong place, I'm still new here.
Anyway, I have a good idea for a CS mod, however I only have a Mac. Are there any mac-based map editors? Anything I can use to mod CS?

 

Oy. As far as I know, CE, Sue's, and Miza are the only cave story editing programs that exist, and they're all for PC, so you aren't going to have much luck there. However, I do remember someone (andwhy?) porting several PC mods to the mac, so there must be some way to do it.

Probably your best bet is to run bootcamp or some other windows emulator and work on modding cs in that setting.

Sorry if this is unhelpful.

 

I have a TSC Converter.
(converts Cave Story script files to plain text files and back again. You need Python, which should already be installed on Macs.)

But that doesn't really help without a Mac map editor, does it?

Uh... you could try these:
Mac CS Hacks
Andwhy's mod porting thread (porting Windows mods -> Mac and PSP)

Otherwise I'm not sure what you can do.

 

Okay, thanks guys! I guess an emulator is my only real hope here. Ah well, as long as it works I don't have a problem. Thanks again for your help.

 

Good luck!

 

Make the mod for PC using bootcamp and then let me know and I'll port it to mac for you. Although try not to create maps with map numbers greater than 94.
