To clarify, on mac os x function arguments on the stack must always be aligned on a 16 byte boundary because OS X uses SSE for floating point math exclusively. Even still, because of the aforementioned 16byte stack alignment issue, I think getting things running on mac os x is going to be a little harder than 'should work perfectly' (and forget about ppc macs). and my version of automake was apparently incompatible with the one they used. I only gave a cursory 5 minute what the hell shot at building it. That would probably be the easiest thing to do, assuming you have a spare copy of XP somewhere.

Barring that, you could just use Boot Camp and the WinXP build.

It should work perfectly on Intel Macs, at least. I will plug in an actual controller and actually try to play the game tomorrow, and post up some screenshots. PS2 emulation at full speed is now possible on Intel Core 2 Duo systems with beefy enough video card. With frame limiter on, the game runs at the correct 60fps and is locked at that speed, so that it runs exactly as it does on the PS2.Įarly test results are positive. Windows Task Manager reports CPU usage at 100%, so PCSX2 is utilizing both cores to the fullest extent possible. Running with frame limiter off, dual-core support enabled, watching the famous intro sequence looping, I was seeing peak framerates of ~130fps and lowest framerate of ~75fps during 3D sequence. I set it to Bilinear enabled, AA 4x mode. It is DX9/SM3.0 enabled and takes advantage of cards which support this shader level. I'm using the default ZeroGS KOSMOS 0.96.0 graphics plugin. I tested with Final Fantasy X, the only game which the creators of PCSX2 have tested from beginning to end and declared playable entirely through. PCSX2 v0.92 is fully multithreaded and dual-core enabled. Other unimportant stuff, hard drives and whatnot Preliminary info: (screenshots to come later)
