The renderer is working - you can see the model in the debugger, but the scrolling views clip out the results. The bad news is that compiling Bricksmith on Mojave/X-code 10 produces 3-d views where the parts are hidden. I have been periodically fixing various breakages due to OS updates, so my guess is you're seeing something I have already fixed when maintaining Bricksmith for my own use. I'm sorry to have gone AWOL here - for some reason my forum prefs got zapped to not email me, so I didn't realize there was news.įirst, Warren: the good news is the latest tip of Bricksmith -will- run on Mojave. I don't have any development experience but I do have other resources that I can help out with, I'm sure. If Allen does agree to fork it onto Github, please let me know if I can help. Thankyou - that's completely understandable :-) My main issue on Mojave is that when you open a file, the window never opens! So it's pretty much unusable for me. That said, I haven’t had any issues on Mojave but I haven’t really used Bricksmoth in any in depth way since the upgrade I plan on asking him if I can fork the project to Githib and release, at the very least, a recompiled version that works. Real life has gotten in the way of his development. I'd be happy to help you in that if I can, but my coding skills are next to non-existent sadly. I think if you want to continue using it a hard fork might be necessary. Would it be possible to get your latest version to test? Lots of window handling issues and I've just found out the hard way. Just as an update - Bricksmith 3.0 really doesn't work on OS X Mojave.

So, I first thought to do simple technical conversions like converting to ARC and modern Objective-C. I'd like to ping him before doing anything as drastic as a hard fork of Bricksmith. If anyone who has been around LDraw for a while knows how to reach Allen directly, please contact me. But I haven't heard from Allen in years - I lost email contact with him around when he stopped posting on these forums. fixing crash bugs) and was thinking a point release to update it for modern versions of Mac OS X would be a win. I've been steadily maintaining Bricksmith for myself (e.g. I've been in stealth mode for a while now, but I wanted to stick my head up to see if anyone knows how to contact Allen Smith.
