a) When a very talented Mac developer finds this project and dedicates his next few months to porting it.

or

b) When someone buys jitspoe a Macbook Pro, and convinces enough people to feature-vote the Mac port to the top of the list.

I've been trying to chase one down on Craigslist for months

There has to be enough of a demand.  I'm not going to waste my time if it's just for a couple people.

Sure, but we're talking about the average gamer, here. Sureley if Mac is more popular than linux, then mroe people would play pball2 on mac if there was a mac version.

The Linux port was done because servers generally run linux, and the port wasn't too difficult in the first place. There were just a lot of secondary issues. :)

EDIT: And no gamer has a Mac. Most Macs are sold for personal office work / media stuff, which are the two things they're good at.

You do know that both Mac and Linux are based on Unix, correct?  :)

Lol, it really sucks to install windows on a mac. It's senseless. :D
We need someone who can port this game to Mac.
GET ONE! :D

Get one of those portable (or even make your own) bootable Linux flash drives. Might work. Just throwing an idea out there.

I think there should be a mac version for paintball because my college uses mostly all macs for its great video graphics and that there ideal for an art school. How long would it take to transfer the coding from PC to mac?
