Dolphin help? - JMPMP - 03-11-2010

Can anyone tell me what's going on with dolphin, and how I can configure it to make it work? I have the latest dolphin build 2.0 rc1 and still cannot load games whether I use opengl or dolphin software renderer. I can barely get the "please wear your wii-mote strap" warning, when I use the dolphin software renderer, but otherwise cannot go further than that. Here are my specs:

Mac Os X 10.6.2
Intel i5 quad core 2.66 ghz
ATI Radeon HD 4850

I would really appreciate anyone's help! Thank you so much in advance!

Try checking "use panic handlers" so we can see if a error comes out ( do the segfaults show a panic error ? )

Anyway is weird to see dolphin running in OSX Tongue so be patient untill someone have the answer


RE: Dolphin help? - JMPMP - 03-11-2010

Using OpenGl, this is the only error message I got (I checked panic handlers and confirm on stop):
Error: Trying to complie at 0. LR=8000a3ec

when i Press ok I get:
Warning: iCacheJit: Reading Opcode from fffffffc. Please report.

When I press ok I get:
Warning: iCacheJit: Reading Opcode from 524d4341. Please Report.

When I press ok I get:
Warning: iCacheJit: Reading Opcode from 524d4345. Please Report.

When I press ok I get:
Warning: Zero Op - Error flattening 524d4345 op 00000000 After I click Yes (this one gives me the option no as well), it completely crashes and closes out dolphin.

Other than the fact that my computer is a mac, are my other specs sufficient? Thank you very much for your help! I'm trying my hardest to be patient!

could my problem be that I'm using a raw dump?

As far as I know, Dolphin does not run very well on Mac.

Other than that, convert the file into an .iso image.

both dumps i have are iso's....

is this something where I may just have to wait until they have a release that can run on the mac? I've seen people on youtube run it on the mac using crossover. However, that apparently doesn't work on my computer either.

well the thing is it should work on macs fine besides a few problems


RE: Dolphin help? - James333 - 03-11-2010

oh that would be cool........what are your specs on your mac if you don't mind me asking?

I bought my mac brand-spanking new from the apple store online, so these problems are kinda frustrating. Are there any other separate programs i need to have to get dolphin to work for mac? or should it work on its own?
