With vs2013 there is not an xp target. With some work I think one could be added. OSX 10.7 is no longer an SL target.
Quote for a user: Firstly great job on the new NT viewer, running great on Arch Linux with nVidia v352,21 One minor issue I noticed in the console on start up is: Fontconfig error: Cannot load default config file This occurs on my Fedora 22 installation also. Getting some great FPS figures with Advanced Lighting Model enabled and dd at 256m .. 35 -50 FPS on my home sim. Thanks for all your hard work, good luck with the new viewer, please let me know if I can be of any further help.
