Hi,

I'm interested in purchasing BS2, but the mac version is really ugly on a retina MBP. I know its form over function, but any plans to update to support retina graphics?
 
Hi,
  I don't have a retina Mac to test it on at the moment, but is it simply a matter of poor icons or is the whole program cloudy?

The whole program is "cloudy" with the retina display
 
I also have a retina display and concur with the cloudy display.  What I notice, though, is that pure text values show up nice and clear but the graphics (images/icons) look sort of cloudy or washed-out.  I'm not sure,  but it could be that the retina is such a high resolution (2880 X 1800) that it makes the icons appear like you would see on an older PC (like 640x480).  I noticed this immediately since the 1.4 version on my Windows machine didn't look cloudy like this.

Let me know if you need any testing on an OSX version, I'm a dev (test manager) as well
 
Any plans to update BS2 anytime soon? retina displays have been out since 2012...
