# Xash3D (Half-Life/GoldSrc Engine) For Mac OS X 10.4.x Tiger (Intel)

Ported by Alex Free

Official Homepage | MacintoshGarden

Xash3d is the open source Half-Life/GoldSrc engine by FWGS. Now for the first time ever, an Intel Mac OS X 10.4.x 32 bit build of the latest Xash3d engine is available! Previously when Steam on Mac first released, Half-Life required Mac OS X 10.5.8. This was later made higher, to Mac OS X 10.6.3. Now, Steam requires who knows what to run the client on Mac OS X. This Xash3d build works on Mac OS X 10.4.x (and maybe some other slightly newer Mac OS X versions), and since it's not Steam there is no DRM! You can run mods, play online, and play Half-Life in all it's glory on any Intel Mac.

### Release 2 - (9/12/2021) - What's New In This Version?

Mac OS 10.4.x (Intel 32 bit)

Source

View all releases.

## Usage

You will need a `Valve` directory from an existing Half-Life installation (I used the GOTY edition of Half-Life). Double click `Half-Life.app`, and you will be presented with two options:

- `Install Valve Directory` - This copies a Valve directory to `Half-Life.app/lib/xash3d/valve`.
- `Launch Game` - This will start the game once a `valve` directory has been installed.

## Install From Source

### Requirements

- Mac OS X 10.4.11 Intel
- Xcode 2.5
- MacPorts
- TigerPorts

Run the `build-all` script in the source code download. Xash3d will be built into a portable `Half-Life.app` in the `/Applications` directory.

## Changelog

### Release 2 (9/12/2021)

- Compiled Xash3d and the Xash3d Half-Life SDK statically against libstc++ and libgcc to fix a ton of issues (this should have been done in release 1).
- Changed the build-all script to use gobjcopy (as is installed by MacPorts's binutils) as well as download binutils if it is not installed.

### Release 1 (9/2/2021)

- First release.
