This page explains how to compile MegaGlest on a Mac computer.

XCode
A Git program
CMake
Retrieve the build dependencies / 3rd party libraries and extract the contents of the archive in your library directory ~/Library/Frameworks

git clone --recursive https://github.com/MegaGlest/megaglest-source.git
cd megaglest-source/data/glest_game
git checkout master
cd ../..

If you've made a quite popular mistake - "cloned repository without data (submodules)", then you should do this:

>    git submodule update --init --recursive
>    cd data/glest_game
>    git checkout master
>    cd ../..

cmake -GXcode

xcodebuild -configuration release

cpack -C CPackConfig.cmake

You should have a megaglest-#.dmg file in your current directory. You can install this and play it.
