+Gemintronic Posted July 28, 2018 Share Posted July 28, 2018 You could try to roll your own via WineBottler: http://winebottler.kronenberg.org/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flojomojo Posted July 28, 2018 Share Posted July 28, 2018 What Jaguar games are you into? Chances are good there's something similar or better you could run instead. LikeTyphoon 2001 in place of Tempest 2000, or the PC versions of the many Amiga ports. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ggn Posted July 28, 2018 Share Posted July 28, 2018 The official git repository for virtual jaguar only goes up to v2.1.3 so I'm not sure where you heard about newer versions! Recently I got donated a very old mac mini for testing rmac on mac, so I thought I might as well try building vj on it. After some fiddling it was done! So go to http://virtualjaguar.kicks-ass.net/builds/and grab it - it obviously works here but I dunno if I should be including more files. If anyone can provide some feedback about this, it'd be great! 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't see how that's any worse than saying "run a Windows emulator" when someone's looking for a Mac program! I guess if I were desperate to play emulated Jaguar, http://virtualjaguar.kicks-ass.net/builds/ would be worth a try. But so much of that platform's stuff is elsewhere, too. (Dude! Again!) 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

doctorclu Posted July 30, 2018 Author Share Posted July 30, 2018 So let's see... Time to install M$ Windows on that Mac! Might do a multi-boot sometime. Time to buy a Jaguar Got three. One is white. You could try to roll your own via WineBottler: http://winebottler.kronenberg.org/ Use Winebottler/Wine for using many Atari 2600 dev programs, so... yeh, I guess I could. Thanks for the reminder. What Jaguar games are you into? Chances are good there's something similar or better you could run instead. LikeTyphoon 2001 in place of Tempest 2000, or the PC versions of the many Amiga ports. There are other ports of Tempest. Might try Tempest 4K on the PS4 soon. The official git repository for virtual jaguar only goes up to v2.1.3 so I'm not sure where you heard about newer versions! Recently I got donated a very old mac mini for testing rmac on mac, so I thought I might as well try building vj on it. After some fiddling it was done! So go to http://virtualjaguar.kicks-ass.net/builds/and grab it - it obviously works here but I dunno if I should be including more files. If anyone can provide some feedback about this, it'd be great! Awesome, need to get with you and learn how to compile those. I go in stages where I compile programs, and then I don't for a while and forget how it's done. Thanks for this, I'll check it out. Dude! Again!This is the 'Jaguar' forum. Not the 'Anything BUT the Jaguar' forum True. I think he means 2.1.2 - I gave him the wrong number And here is the reason I originally asked. Playtesting... some games work in the above 2.1.0 revision (which I currently have). It's doctorclu. He's a Bubsy fan. Don't tell him to "play something better" Excect another Bubsy game. Yes, Bubsy the Woolies Strikes Back (PS4) actually passed Fractured Furry Tales (Jaguar) as my favorite Bubsy game. I know, shock! 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ggn Posted July 30, 2018 Share Posted July 30, 2018 Just a little feedback... Screen Shot 2018-07-30 at 10.47.26 AM.png What I get when I try to load it. My Mac is running Sierra 10.12.6 Hi and thanks for testing. The mac has El Capitan running which is a bit older. I was told that usually building stuff is upwards compatible. So maybe this isn't the case or I did something wrong. Will investigate! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ggn Posted July 31, 2018 Share Posted July 31, 2018 Reading the above dialog again... could you press "report" just to see if there's any info I could use? Maybe I didn't package up the application properly (very likely as I've never done this before) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ggn Posted August 4, 2018 Share Posted August 4, 2018 (edited) Ok, I punished the old box into compiling qt for most of the day, then let it compile vj again and got this: http://virtualjaguar.kicks-ass.net/builds/vj-2.1.3-osx.zip. This should be a static build, i.e. you should need nothing fancy to run it. So if you can try it out, it'd be great! (well, when I ran the binary it did give me some warnings about deprecated stuff blah blah blah. Other than that it worked fine here) Makes sense. Do I just need to load the QT libraries? That's not impossible either but I have no idea how would one do that - qt's website is a disaster for the developer, moreso for the end user!

doctorclu Posted August 4, 2018 Author Share Posted August 4, 2018 GGN this works quite well and this revision allows for more game testing that was not possible before. From all us Mac users and Jaguar gamers, thanks! 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shamus Posted August 5, 2018 Share Posted August 5, 2018 On the Mac version you definitely want to link everything in statically. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ggn Posted August 6, 2018 Share Posted August 6, 2018 On the Mac version any OS you definitely want to link everything in statically. FTFY Anyway, the machine will remain set up for this so it should be possible to build past and future versions. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Felyx Posted August 8, 2018 Share Posted August 8, 2018 (edited) Hi, As far as I know, the latest version of VJ for Mac is the 2.1.0 and it works very well so you shouldn't need to run a PC version of VJ under Wine It is quite fast: N.B: I placed Jiffi on the same folder but Jiffi runs under Wine, not VJ. The roms are in the software folder. I am currently running it on my iMac under High Sierra. To do the same, you need VJ 2.1.0, QT and to precise the path for roms and that's it. I detailed step by step how to here: http://atariage.com/forums/topic/247783-virtual-jaguar-for-mac-need-for-qt-4-help-help/page-3 Below are some links: VJ 2.1.0 Mac version: http://www.mirari.fr/xsZe or here: http://icculus.org/virtualjaguar/tarballs/ QT 4.8.5: https://download.qt.io/archive/qt/4.8/4.8.5/ then chose the 4.8.5 .dmg version and change the cartridge path with for example "/Users/user/desktop/virtualjaguar/software/" if your "software" folder is on your desktop: Edited August 8, 2018 by Felyx Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
