Dolphin for Mac constantly crashes

[Yamcha]

Hi Guys,

For some reason Dolphin seems to constantly crash on my iMac 2011, I've experienced this problem many times on other Mac's I've owned in the past..

So what's causing this? and how do I fix it if possible.. Yes games do run, but it takes several attempts to get the games going and It often also crashes when connecting the wii controller..

Specifications
iMac 21.5" 2011
Intel Core i5 2.7GHz (SandyBridge)
4GB DDR3 1333MHZ Memory
AMD Radeon HD 6770 512MB
1TB Seagate Hard Drive
OSX Mountain Lion 10.8.2

What revision of dolphin are you using? Where did you get it from?

This is normal, OS X 10.8 brokes real wiimote support. There is a fix available, you should search the "Controller" forum.

Using Dolphin 3.0-793. I downloaded it from the official dolphin website..

Going to try older versions and see how it goes..

Also try DefenderX and Wintermute's builds (search the forums).

Thanks for reply guys, I solved the problem, downloaded and installed 3.0-789 version and the games work fine now.. Still has controller issues, but seems to work perfectly on a couple tries..

It's something I don't mind dealing with..

Anyway.. Thanks!

Hey Guys,

Unfortunately the problem seems to be back again, when I try to run a game it just hangs at "Clearing Code Cache", and then it crashes on me.. I've tried updating to the latest version of Dolphin.. Still the same problem..

Not sure If it was to do with OSX 10.8 or not, but It's extremely unstable.. Hoping someone has a fix for this, would really appreciate any help =)

Do you still use a real wiimote?

You could try Windows 7 via BootCamp if you have the chance and opportunity for it and use Dolphin in Windows instead of OS X.
