No PPSSPP v1.9 for macOS ??

[ClarkKent]

The 1.7.5 app does not work here.

Library not loaded: /usr/local/opt/sdl2/lib/libSDL2-2.0.0.dylib
Referenced from: /Users/USER/Downloads/PPSSPP1.7.5.app/Contents/MacOS/PPSSPPQt
Reason: Incompatible library version: PPSSPPQt requires version 11.0.0 or later, but libSDL2-2.0.0.dylib provides version 9.0.0

It depends on the version of OS X you're running, I'm running 10.15 and it compiled fine, at least to what a dummy like me sees

The instructions on the download page warn that you need to install SDL2:

Step 1: Install SDL2 via Homebrew
Open the Terminal app
Paste this into a terminal session: ruby -e "$(curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Homebr...r/install)"
Follow the instructions, and wait for installation to finish
Paste this into a Terminal: brew install sdl2 libzip

SDL2 is installed otherwise PPSSPP 1.6.3 wouldn't work.

Can't you even read the log you provided? It's like 3 lines of easy to understand english text and the last line clearly tells you that you have version 9.0 while the new version of PPSSPP requires 11.0, update/install new version of SDL2.

[ClarkKent]

I upgraded SDL but it still crashes.

It's funny that I tried installing PPSSPP 1.9.3 Windows version in Parallels Desktop and it runs almost at same speed as the Mac native version.

Here is v1.9.3-604 for anyone who wants it :)

Thanx but not working on 10.9.5. I'll try it on a different system soon.
Edit: Works perfect with MacOS 10.14
Edit2: Doesn't start on MacOS 10.12.6 - error message is following but Frameworks are in the right place, Homebrew and libSDL2 installed of course.

I don't know if it would work on an OS version earlier than Mojave and I only have Mojave and Catalina installed, so I'm unable to check for older versions unless someone knows how to set args in the terminal for a specific target version :(

[The_Ur3an_Myth]

So I installed High Sierra v10.13.6 to see if I can build from source that may have a chance of working on versions earlier than Mojave but instead I get this:

This most likely means you didn't use `git submodule update --init` after cloning.


I've recently learned that you can install ppsspp using `brew install ppsspp`.

https://brew.sh/

This will give you a bad FFmpeg, so some games will have glitches in videos. But for a large % of games it will work fine. I have not tried it, but apparently you can use `brew reinstall --HEAD ppsspp` to get the latest git build. It'll compile it for you.

I forgot about that after cloning however terminal gave me this:

Error: invalid option: --HEAD

[[Unknown]]

Okay, I'd just try:

brew uninstall ppsspp; brew install --HEAD ppsspp

Yeah I did that shortly after but as expected another error came out

Terminal output (shortened):

make[2]: *** [PPSSPPSDL.app/Contents/MacOS/PPSSPPSDL] Error 1
make[2]: *** Deleting file `PPSSPPSDL.app/Contents/MacOS/PPSSPPSDL'
make[1]: *** [CMakeFiles/PPSSPPSDL.dir/all] Error 2
make: *** [all] Error 2

P.S. I remember having the CMakeLists problem on Catalina but I fixed it by copying the CMakeLists.txt to the ext folder but that didn't work here so problem after problem

[[Unknown]]

You need to paste more of the error, that's just the result of the error.

CMakeLists.txt is a configuration file. Copying it into ext will only make things not work.
