0.8.5 on pcc
« on: June 26, 2007, 01:13:45 PM »
hey, first of all,, nice idea bringin' the saturn to osx and other systems, thx;)

but... i hoped for the new version (0.8.5) to work on my g4 ppc - but if i open the program, theres just a white screen at first.. and after some seconds a black screen following.. but nothing after this!!? ..tried with severeal bios (usa,jap,europe) and games..     also tried it by compiling by myself. .same problem..,,

did i just forget sthg cause i'm a noob or does the version not work properly yet?

thx in advance.
nico.

Can you give some more details on your system, eg. what OS X version are you running?

The sources had a "bug" where the main emulation loop was called too few times, leading to extremely slow emulation (you could have to wait for almost a minute to see anything on a PPC Mini). I thought I had fixed this in the official build, but it's possible I missed it. You can try raising the number of loop iterations in YuiIdle() in src/carbon/main.c.

Hello,

I don't get the white screen on my Mac, nothing happens when I try to launch Yabause (I use the official .app).

Tiger 10.4.9
iBook 1.42 G4 PPC
1 GB RAM

Hope this helps.

Thank you!

Please try the latest nightly build, it might work better.

Thank you antime this helped me out. Now Yabause boots with bios 100 and 101. I juste have Sonic R wich unfortunately doesn't boot: I always get the bios (wich is slow on my machine).

But this is ok for me, keep up the good work!

hey, here's my systeminfo:

running a pbook g4, 1.67 GHz, 1.5 GB DDR2 SDRAM
..and tiger 10.4.10    

but i had to uninstall the xcode tools and fink 'cause of space problems;)
>no chance to test the nightly build before i reinstall these things (suppose
it doesn't work with just copying the sdl libraries to frameworks:(

i'll try it sometime, but thanks for yer fast answer!

ah, tested it and it works, thanks! (tested just by putting sdl into frameworks of osx.. ) though bios screen's a bit slow ..perhaps cause i didnt install sdl through xcodetools/terminal?  ..i'll test some games later on,thx
