where can i download a mario level editor for os x, ive checked everywhere and it matters non of what mario.
-
I've been asking that question for over 2 years now.
Seems no one cares enough about Macs to port any level editors to them. :/ (oh, and I think this is in the wrong place.)
-
were should i put it?
-
anyone know of one??
-
NO!!!!!
-
Hey NintendoBros, just calm down. He's new here.
-
This is why you don't buy Macs. There are no programs for them.
-
im a editer so i need my mac also nintendo bro chill the hell out!!
-
You shouldn't swear. If you are an "editer", you should be running Windows (does your Mac have Boot Camp?). Also, please type with decent grammer.

Being an editor, I would think you would know how to spell. Being an editor does not require the use of Apple computers, so I still don't understand what you're talking about.
-
At one point it was assumed that Macs were better at making graphics/graphic art than Windows, etc. Though I'm sure Windows is just as good.

I know I've made my fair share of grammatical errors, but that post made me rofl.
-
I think Macs should get more respect. Of course, the only way they would is if:
They had more A-list games
They had a two-button mouse (seriously, ONE button?)
But anyhoo, I have heard of a SMB3 ROM level editor for Mac OSX. I don't remember what it's called, but it had some pretty powerful features. But even if I did remember what it was called, I'm not entirely sure I can talk about it.
-
Apple released a multi-button mouse quite awhile ago, Glorb.
-
Yes, but
1. Touch-sensitive does not work well for the way people use mice... they expect to be able to rest their fingers and click.
2. Still stuck with one giant button on their laptops.
Anyway, just run one of the many PC emulators and then DOS/Windows with whatever program you're trying to use.
-
Well, Macs ARE compatible with third party mice that have two buttons....
-
I just used a Mac laptop the other night... it was pretty good. Bit hard to adjust to, but it was quite fun to play with.
-
No good... I can't use a mouse when I've got a laptop in my lap.
-
Well, either way, I don't see how hard it is to adjust to a ctrl-click if only one button is present on a mouse....Maybe that's because I was raised on Macs...
-
It's not just an issue of adjustment, it's an issue of an inferior interface leading to loss of productivity.
-
I read Vid's small text as "raised on Mars". I figure that would be a good enough reason.

Good. It wasn't just me.
Right click = one finger. Control click = two hands. Hmmm. Right click seems a lot easier to me.
Edit: I read Vid's post wrong, and was not raised on Mars.
-
Eh, we all have our tastes. I was raised on PC FPSes, so a right-click is a must for me.
-
I've used both, but I'm mostly a windows user simply because I'm more familiar with it. While Mac's don't have the security issues that Windows computers do, I tend to circumvent most of Window's security holes (especially those in Internet explorer) by using a different browser. Even after all of this, Apple tends to make the best computers, rated best in both reliability and customer service for desktops, as noted by Consumer Reports, for the last several years. As for laptops, they are also at the top in service, but reliability-wise it is a close second to Toshiba (quite a surprise, if you ask me).
So, closing word, getting one computer over another is entire your preference. As for why this topic is getting, well, off-topic, I don't know. And, if you really want to run an editor on a Mac, try these three options:
1) Get virtual PC and run a version of windows.
2) Learn C++ or another coding language, get the source code of the program you want, convert it so that it will run in a Mac environment, and recompile into a new program.
3) Get a cheap, used, windows PC, use it as an editor, and transfer files between the two.

's too bad that most of those options require money...
