OpenGL on Mac

01-11-2019, 07:39 AM #1

Hello,

I have a problem with Dolphin 5.0-9322

The message is "Your OpenGL driver does not support ARB_buffer_storage. This device's performance will be terrible. Please ask your devise vendor for an updated OpenGL driver."Since I do not know how to update openGL on mac, do you have a solution ?

More when I try to reinstall the version 5.0, it freeze as soon as I ask for detecting WiiMote. Before the update all was ok.

If you can help...

Happy new year from France by the way

When I re-install version 5.0, the Wiimote is not detected and the software freeze when I press "refresh" bouton.

When I use the last version, the graphics are very slow with line or the top part is flashing. I tried with OpenGL and Vulkan.

then what can I do ?

1- Fire up Boot Camp.
2- Install the version of Windows you want (not older than 7, and X64) on it.
3- Now you have access to all 3 video backends with the possibility to use more up-to-date GPU drivers. Enjoy.

Just to be clear, the recently added ARB Buffer Storage warning is telling you about an issue that has always existed. 5.0 has the same issue (and same or worse performance), but now we're letting you now why performance is bad.

Your best option is to use bootcamp and play in Windows or Linux.

Hello,

I tried this morning with a new session and it works perfectly with Dolphine 5.0. I think that the other session has been corrupted by the last version of the software or by an other software that I tried the same day : http://snosrap.com/wiiscale/

I will try on the other session to see which one corrupt the session.
