Since I use Qt and Qt Creator, I thought: “why not try a OS X build?”. I didn’t plan to invest much time in it, as time is rare, but I was simply too curious to resist. So I installed Qt SDK and Qt Creator on a Mac, opened up the Level Master 2000-project and…. CRASH =)
Qt Creator reported, that some files couldn’t be found, but when clicking on the include statement in code, the path seemed to be correct, as I could open the header file with F2.
So here’s what fixed it:
- Clean all targets
- Regenerate the qMake file via Qt Creator
- Rebuild the project
- Install the latest Flashplayer and add the app/AS3/bin directory to Flash Player’s local trusted
That was it! See for yourself:

The GUI needs a bit work though (e.g. the “delete entity” button), but all in all I’m really impressed how easy this was.
