Unable to load textures after compiling on Mac OS X 10.8

[jasarien]

Hey guys,

I've built PPSSPP for Mac OS X, following the instructions for the SDL build method.

When I run the resulting binary, I see what I assume is meant to be the PPSSPP UI, however, there are no textures, so all I see is checkerboard blockiness, seen here: http://d.pr/i/UKYZ

The console log shows these lines:

Code:

I: /Users/james/dev/ppsspp/native/ui/screen.cpp:44: I: Screen switch!

I noticed it says it can't find a filesystem for ui_atlas.zim (which I assume is the textures file).

The directory structure is something like:

Code:

~/dev/ppsspp/SDL/assets
~/dev/ppsspp/SDL/build

and the ppsspp binary is inside the build directory.

Is there something I'm doing wrong? Should I relocate the assets folder?

Any advice would be greatly appreciated, thanks.

run it from the SDL directory, like this: build/ppsspp
or just move the ppsspp binary into the SDL directory, so that it can see assets.
Also, you might first have to run ./buildassets.sh in SDL.

Yeah I need to make better instructions...

Excellent, that works. Thanks for the help.
