General / Re: Mac Users: Unofficial Mac Package 2.3.0-13
« on: December 15, 2017, 01:08:33 AM »
A user reported back that there are problems with this build:
dyld: Library not loaded: /usr/local/opt/sfml/lib/libsfml-graphics.2.4.dylib
Referenced from: Attract.app/Contents/MacOS/./attract
Reason: image not found
This might mean that the application does not use the libraries in the package, but the ones under /usr/local/opt/, which I use for compiling.
So the package still is not ready for prime time.

In the create-pkg.sh, there is this section that shall link the libraries into the bundle - this and the bundlelibs.py script does not seem to work correctly:
# Copy extra libs to bundle and fix link path
pushd "${APPCONTENT}"/MacOS >/dev/null
${SCRIPT_PATH}/bundlelibs.py attract
popd >/dev/null

No idea. But your posts were my inspiration to do it in the very bulky way: create the bin, create the dmg, set the dmg to edit mode, manually copy the working bin into the dmg, set the dmg back to read-only mode. Since this works, the question why the script does not work seems even more puzzling.

What I forgot to write: This binary has no SWF support, which I understand is rather new and alpha-esque. Just if some artwork does not function (in my case, Nevato, Robospin and other popular layouts just work).

General / Mac Users: Unofficial Mac Package 2.3.0-13

To the extent that Mac users are not yet aware - there is an unofficial Mac Package of Attract Mode 2.3.0, in which Andrew ironed out the most critical compile errors. From my own testing, it seems to work quite well, and so far I have not received any negative feedback. Feel free to download!

I can confirm this and manually modified the dmg by adding the running binary to it.
The compressed image is ready for download and install.
Here it is  ;D.

If this successfully installs with Mac users, it would be great to know!
Not the most elegant way, but we are getting somewhere!
Cheers!

Same segfault here. What worked for me wasanually copying the new binary into the 2.2.0 App container and replacing the confit data in .attract with the newly compiled data. Far from perfect, however running  :D.

Great news - Attract Mode starts compiling on the Mac! Thanks to Andrew's great work!
https://github.com/mickelson/attract/issues/390
Right now this makes the trick:
make NO_SWF=1
Tonight I did a manual update of my MacOS app as well as the data in the .attract folder - and it works! See the screenshot in the above post! I understand that Andrew will also try to sort out this last obstacle. I still have to figure out how to create the Mac bundle.
 :D ;D

Hi and sorry for this late reply. In my Mac experience, you can run any Retroarch Core from within AttractMode as explained here:

https://mameonmacs.blogspot.co.at/2017/01/attract-mode-for-osx-setup-part-2.html

Only current limitation is that Retroarch must be started in Fullscreen Mode. I have not yet tried SNES, but see no reason why SNES Retroarch Cores shouldn't work.

Cheers, Stefan

Confirmed. Procedure worked out very well. Having mmal hardware decoding enabled now. Many thanks!

Hi I am using the experimental package of AttractMode from within RetroPie. No mmal hardware acceleration is available under the Video option. I understand that this seems to be the current overall status? Many thanks for your thoughts, Stefan

I can reproduce the crash on my Mac with the Arcade Game Centre Layout, which provides for a wheel sound. If you quickly browse through the games, AttractMode crashes quickly. Still need to do the cross-check in my setup on the Raspberry Pi.

General / Re: Issue with lr-mame 2010 in attract mode
« on: March 23, 2017, 11:47:35 PM »
Hi, for changing the default emulator you have to head for the runcommand options. Typically by pressing the A button at startup of a game. This of course requires that you are allowed to do so (see runcommand setup within the Retropie setup, as described in the Retropie WIKI).
Please also note that AdvanceMAME is no Libretro Core. If you want to switch between AdvanceMAME and lr-MAME2010, your roms must be in the Arcade directory.
Within AttraceMode, you must finally head for the pre-configured Arcade Emulator and build romlist and Display from there. Then you should be set.
Try to check these steps in the above order and it should work out. Good luck!
