I'm pretty sure you don't have to, but Yosemite isn't bad.

X-Code requires you to use 10.10, which in my opinion, is the worst OS ever.

You don't have to use XCode to mod Scratch, just use another text editor.

Thank you in advance.

To create new media library, it looks like you'd have to run Scratch off of a web server, create a folder called medialibraries in the same folder as Scratch.swf, and put a file called <asset type>Library.json there, filled with information identifying the media. These are the files that Scratch uses:

https://cdn.scratch.mit.edu/scratchr2/static/__f9572735fe30b0336e0af6daf6c8e648__/medialibraries/spriteLibrary.json
https://cdn.scratch.mit.edu/scratchr2/static/__f9572735fe30b0336e0af6daf6c8e648__/medialibraries/costumeLibrary.json
https://cdn.scratch.mit.edu/scratchr2/static/__f9572735fe30b0336e0af6daf6c8e648__/medialibraries/backdropLibrary.json
https://cdn.scratch.mit.edu/scratchr2/static/__f9572735fe30b0336e0af6daf6c8e648__/medialibraries/soundLibrary.json

Then you'd have to modify getAsset in Server.as to retrieve the assets from your server. I haven't tried this, so I don't really know the specifics.

Thank you a lot djdolphin.

I will work on it, and if there are good news, I will contact you.

Thank you again.

Xcode is not a text editor and the main post say's you need it.

The appstore calls Xcode an entire IDE, but I guess we can call it a text editor since none of the IDE features will be handy when developing something other than an iPhone app. You don't really need Xcode, you only need the command line developer tools that are packaged with it, because they aren't packaged with Mac OS X. I don't know if there are downloads for the command line tools(or the entire app) for older versions of OS X somewhere on the internet. Apple likes to push everyone towards upgrading.

Windows 10 could just randomly change it's name, so let's call it “Windows NT 6.4”

I meant to say “Don't use XCode, use another thing, like a text editor”, but it didn't come out right.

Anyway, I don't see any reason why you need XCode, I'm modding Scratch fine without it.

I'm modding Scratch over SSH with Vim. PuTTY is a nice terminal interface.

Ok I solved it with a “bad solution” that for now it's sufficient.
In Scratch.as file, there is isOffline var (it's in initialize method) that you will set up to true.
After, if you have installed Scratch 2.0 offline editor previously, go to in the installation folder and copy media,locale,icons folders into same folder of Scratch.swf.
A this point, you will able to see all media library loaded

Same here, I had my system set up to successfully compile scratch-flash, but the current version yields exactly the same error. Any ideas how to fix this?

It looks like Scratch has been failing to build on Travis CI since last week. You'll probably have to wait for the Scratch Team to fix it, use an older version of the source code, or fix it yourself.

It's like djdolphin said. I tried it with an older scratch source code version and it worked!

No one's going to cater to your wishes unless you improve your attitude and be less demanding about this stuff. If you don't want Yosemite (for whatever reason) then you're going to have to figure it out yourself.

Actually, it looks like the problem is that Scratch now requires playerglobal11_6.swc instead of playerglobal11_4.swc. I've updated my tutorial.
