Hi all,

Im new to Mac and Xcode myself currently trying to create a addon for Mac. But sadly I'm stuck on environment setting up... Please help! Following is what I've done already.

Xcode version 5.0.2
ArchiCAD 17 DevKit installed

Following MacTel Step-by-Step
Copied and Place the contents of the two folders (Project Templates, Specifications) into the appropriate folder inside the

~/Library/Application Support/Developer/Shared/Xcode/

folder (create if necessary).

Than try to open Xcode i cant seems to see the create ArchiCAD add-on option anywhere...

Did I do something wrong? Any help would be great!

Thanks in advance!

Regards
Johnny

I've never tried the template approach, so I can't reply directly to that. I recommend starting from one of example add-ons.

Hi Johnny,

unfortunately the template is not working with the latest versions of Xcode (5.0+).
So I suggest you to copy one of the example add-ons (for example Goodie_Functions) and rename it.

I hope we will manage to make the template to work in the next DevKit version.

Regards,
Tibor
