Creating a desktop & start menu shortcut, and Mac support

Questions & Answers
1

I have 3 questions, feel free to answer any question you can :slight_smile:

  • How can I create a desktop shortcut & a start menu icon [Windows 7] / tile [Windows 10] when the user downloads my game?

  • I want to build my game to Mac so Mac users will be able to enjoy it as well, but I have a PC [with Windows 7 on it] and it seems like I don’t have “Mac” as a platform option in the build settings.

  • Will the Windows line endings in my scripts be a problem when building for Mac?

1.) You need to use an installer, e.g. InstallShield

2.) You do not need a Mac to build for OSX. Run the Unity installer again and make sure you selected Mac standalone as one of the installed build targets.

3.) No problem at all, because you’ll be compiling it into CIL on your PC anyway.
