Mac OSX YYC questions

Hey Everybody,

So I have a large project that usually complies for more than an hour with YYC for the MAC.

I have realized that in Xcode the process says "Ready" after like 10 minutes but the PC continues "building" for another 40-70 minutes sometimes.(at the end sometimes it finishes sometimes it gives an error randomly.)

Can I stop the process on PC and click "Archive" on Mac when it says Ready after the 10 minutes or will that corrupt the project?

Thanks.

Back your project up, and try it.

What you're describing is a pretty unique situation. I doubt few has direct experience.

This smacks of a timeout on the connection between the Mac and the PC. If you can, try installing GMS 2 directly on the PC and building there natively.

I think I may be dealing with the same issue. When I build from the pc and push it to xcode, the process never finishes on my pc and I click the stop button and I'm still able to build and push to Apple.
The pc console displays
Code:
do sleep 2; done;
Before I stop it, and currently I have been pushing vm builds just while testing.

So, I think you should be fine to press the stop button and archive on mac. At least I have not had any issues.

Thank you for your opinion. I believe it is fine this way I can Archive on the MAC and upload to the Appstore.

I have also realized that the VM build has some very bad issues and it has no ICONS emended in the build and might have other problems as I could have never submit it for Review at Apple. (Though it works nice on Steam)
