I thought Apple switched to Intel in 2006, in which case all of their processors would have been x86-64? Anything that works today isn't going to work in a few years anyway.ĭrew Sebastino wrote:Maybe I'm missing something, because I'm wondering why MacOS ever would have offered 32bit application support. TBQH I don't think there's much incentive for any open source developer to keep up with Apple in this respect. Ultimately it's not at all fair to put the burden of Apple's forced obsolescence march on unpaid open source developers, though. Though FCEUX probably would work, I would suggest a test is necessary before you can even consider this a viable solution to the 'problem'.

It was just a mislabeled 32-bit configuration, apparently.Īlso, it's not necessarily a given that a 64-bit build of FCEUX will run on 64 bit Wine on Mac. (Maybe it's reasonable to have 2 builds in the appveyor step, I dunno.) Edit: there is no existing 64-bit configuration. A significant number of people do still run FCEUX on 32-bit machines. I expect its default binaries to remain 32-bit for a while yet though, just because Apple hates backward compatibility doesn't mean everyone else has the means to accommodate them. The VS project already has a 64-bit configuration, and it builds just fine with a standard VS community installation. Perhaps it won't be able to in the long run, and a VM will be the only real option, though.Īs far as FCEUX, its source is 64-bit compatible.

Recompiling specific apps is not very effective in the larger scale of things. Its whole purpose is providing compatibility like that.

Honestly the loss of 32-bit is a problem for Wine to solve. * As for bgb in particular, Game Boy debugging on Mac is covered by SameBoy anyway. (In the process of looking for whether this was already requested, I discovered that download.html was still linking to SourceForge instead of GitHub.

Is a 64-bit build of FCEUX planned? Or will NES game developers using Catalina end up having to resort to step-debugging FCEUX SDL as an indirect means of step-debugging a ROM? Or buying a copy of Windows to run in a VM, provided the Mac even has enough RAM to run a VM? Or using Wine in Linux in a VM? bgb (Game Boy debugger) isn't fully stable yet*Īs of today, the AppVeyor build of FCEUX for Windows is still 32-bit. The following have experimental 64-bit builds with reduced functionality or stability: Mesen (NES debugger) and all other programs using Mono The greatest impact is on Win32 applications run in Wine, as well as Mono Winforms, which is still 32-bit. This affects few macOS native applications, as anything maintained will have been recompiled for x86-64. The biggest change in macOS that affects retro game development is that 32-bit (i386/i686) executables no longer run. General availability is expected this September or October. ' Catalina Wine Mixer'? More like Catalina Wine Killer.Ībout a week ago, macOS 10.15 Catalina was demonstrated and made available as a beta test version.
