I think he means support for Mac OS X.
Last year, I dreamt I was pissing at a restroom, but I missed the urinal and my penis exploded.

So if he means that then he could at least post something more, some questions, his idea on how should it look like. Anything...Or maybe he's asking if it's possible to run soldat under Mac OS X? We're supposed to be guessing or what?

Yeah, I searched the forum and latest post regarding OS X is rather ancient, ending in a request to holler the need for Mac compatible version. So I did that.
I tried to run Soldat in OS X via app called Crossover Games, but it was a no-go, I get to change the settings but just about it. Installing Windows just because of Soldat seems rather silly. A native Mac version would make my wienie pop.

Learn to search better:
http://forums.soldat.pl/index.php?topic=39604.msg485329#msg485329

And that's exactly what I did (learn to read through posts), ask for OS X support.
From that link:

However don't give up!

If you really want Soldat on Mac get enough people asking for Mac OS X support.
Motivate us! Don't give up and one day it might happen (hey why not a bit optimism  ).

Why should Soldat be playable on a pointless yet very shitty OS?

Stop trolling or die trying.

Having a native OS X build would require too big changes to the game. It will never become reality, unless the devs decide to rewrite some half of the game. That's probably some few dozen thousands of lines of code, then there's the testing and bugfixing and all that. They start now, they finish it in 2017?

I'm still waiting for my Amiga port. First after that should they start on the Mac version.
