It would nice if the windows client auto selected addon as favorites so you could go to your favorites page and see which addons you are using with the windows client and then add them to your OS X client.

I'm in the exact same boat, I paid for premium on my Mac so I could sync from my PC, please keep us updated on the status of the Mac intergration. People on here have offered to write it for you, maybe you should consider taking them up on that offer.

Same problem here, Mac and PC. Just signed up for premium and now discover it does not work on Mac. I FEEL RIPPED-OFF and tricked. This was the only feature that make me pay for 1 year. Glad to hear you are working on it, but seriously, you need to put a disclamer on your web site. Argh!

We've been expanding our development team and have the resources now to expand the Mac Client. This is a feature we really want to have as well. We'll keep you posted.

nothing really much happened since March then? "We'll keep you posted" didn't happen, and the features you "really want to have as well" are still not available.

That's ridiculous.

The last time I used Curse Premium was roughly two years ago. Back then it didn't have sync for the mac client. I've read through the post, and see there's been various updates from Curse, including one which stated you now have resources for Mac development.

I can see from the client changelog that some enhancements have been made, though I note most of it seems to be refactoring and bug fixes. This leads me to some educated guesses as to why this very long awaited feature hasn't made it:

1. The sync feature just isn't popular. Most players use one computer. Therefore the prioritization is simply too low to throw resources at
2. You don't actually have the technical knowledge to work with OSX's filesystem API - though this seems unlikely since I would imagine that's needed for installing/updating addons
3. You just can't be bothered with it

Thanks Wishfire, and while that post is more of the same, appreciate the speedy response.

I'd actually love to hear more from Acenth. Having an understanding of what these technical hurdles are would be interesting, and perhaps help explain why it's taken this long, and why it might take even longer. I assume there must be a priority on features, it would be good to know how Curse works that priority out. I of course understand that bugs take priority, but I also understand there must be some level of planning going on here. "Mac resources" were mentioned at some point, so does that mean there's a Curse client engineering team, and is that further broken down into PC/Mac? Are there product managers deciding prioritization and planning sprints, or perhaps it's engineers running the show? Do you consider yourself an agile development group or something else? Scrum, XP, FDD, some other development strategy?

Acenth, thanks - that's an awesome write up. That does indeed explain a hell of a lot, and now I completely understand why it is the way it is. Makes me glad I only work in SaaS, worst I have to deal with is Internet Explorer ;)
