If Allegro4 doesn't compile on OSX 10.8, will it work if compiled on 10.7?

Hey all,

Just learned a few days ago that Allegro4 won't compile on Mac OSX 10.8. Big bummer.

Does the application work on 10.8 if compiled on 10.7 or 10.6?

The APIs Allegro 4 uses stopped being available in 10.7. You can compile Allegro 4 in 10.6 and programs using it will at least run in 10.7. I haven't tested 10.8 so I don't know if it works there.

If you plan to do this, keep in mind that there is a bug in the Mac port that causes a crash if you attempt to set a full screen graphics mode in 10.7 or newer.
