I see most of the CDLC here are for PC only (for the pretty obvious reasons, I guess) but as a Mac user I have to run the conversion and every now and then I see others asking for that also. So that got me thinking what does the community in general think about doing the conversion, checking that it works, uploading it to e.g. Mega and then leaving a link in the comment of the original upload for the author to either include in it or not?

if you can do so it's ok to share with others, Mods can add such links in cdlc description if required. Feel free to post such links in same cdlc topic ;)

I for one would appreciate it if someone were to do that. I'm unable to get the toolkit to run on my mac and there are a lot of windows only songs I'd love to be playing.

To get the Toolkit to run on Mac you need to install Mono.  Version 3.4.0 is confirmed to work without problems on Mountain Lion and Mavericks, and for Yosemite you need the version posted here:

Then just grab the latest version of the Toolkit from rscustom.net and you're good to go.

The toolkit keeps failing when try to convert, so it would be awesome for the uploader to consider a "translation" of the file into MAC. Btw, how much time does it take to convert?

About 10 sec.

 

I indicate that i can do the conversion if somebody ask and even if it's not always written many charters will do the same.

 

For the case where the charter won't do it himself. I don't see any reason to stop anyone from giving the link in the comment since there's no actual modification of the cdlc.
