I recently speak with ace123 and he speaks about a new version.
This message was in the 0.3.5 subject and i decided to deplace it here.

You can download subversion for the mac here:
http://metissian.com/projects/macosx/subversion/
or here:
http://downloads.open.collab.net/binaries.html

Then, to get the 0.5.0 version of the engine do in the Terminal:
/usr/local/bin/svn checkout --ignore-externals https://vegastrike.svn.sourceforge.net/ ... /trunk/mac

Once you have VegaStrike.app you just download the 0.3.6 data, rename the folder to "Resources".
Then right click on VegaStrike.app, do Show Package Contents, and move "Resources" into the Contents folder.

I don't really know who is involved in making vega trek, but they might have some more ideas on their forum at wcjunction.com

Data is in general compatible with users of all platforms--however, there are a few exceptions, since if you develop a mod for Windows and are not careful, you might run into case sensitivity problems.

You should be able to download the Vega Strike 0.5.0 version, and extract the Vega Trek release into there.

I also have a copy of the 32-bit linux binaries here:
http://vegastrike.sourceforge.net/users ... es-050.tgz
if you don't want to compile them or download a 500 MB package.

Anyway I have no idea if this will work. I would advise you to go to the Vega Trek forums here (about 2/3 down the page):
http://wcjunction.com/phpBB2/
and ask there or see if there are any threads about running it in Linux.

Uh, there is the 0.3.6 patch in the page.
Just under the 0.3.5 link.

You may search it :wink:

I'll try to put those 64-bit binaries in a tarball also later today.

Here they are:

Now you only need to download 11 megabytes to get the executable programs.
