I though you werent suppost to use HackinTosh! Is that true?

[N36fSL3A]

It's illegal.

[Dy7SLyTq]

no its not what makes you think that?

[N36fSL3A]

Someone told me that installing the mac OS on a non-mac was illegal.

Fixed.

[Dy7SLyTq]

no its not.

[EliteGamesIndustries]

Is VirtualBox illegal?

[Dy7SLyTq]

no

[EliteGamesIndustries]

Is there a way that I can purchase xcode 4 from apple for my windows 7?

[Dy7SLyTq]

no

[EliteGamesIndustries]

Or this there some other kind of program I can download on my PC that will allow me to make apple apps/games without getting a mac. Is there one?

[Dy7SLyTq]

theres a game engine i cant remember the name though

[EliteGamesIndustries]

Could you try looking it up for me? We need the game engine to be coding not like blender.

[N36fSL3A]

Blender isn't a game engine it's a 3d model maker and a video renderer.

Not saying that you can't make a game in Blender.

[Dy7SLyTq]

getting the name of it right now

[Dy7SLyTq]

unity

[EliteGamesIndustries]

Yes but unity you dont code and I want to code the game.

[N36fSL3A]

Why don't you learn C++ first. You obviously aren't ready to move on to game programming if you don't know the basics of C++.

We'll cross that bridge when we get there.

If you rush into game programming you're going to back down within the first few days because you don't even understand the language.

[Dy7SLyTq]

you can do scripting in unity. not c++ but others
