i could open osu and also import the songs but when i was playing it it was too slow! like if i had lag which is not possible because i cannot play online with mac so i went to option and there was an option of using another type of screen resolution and i changed it, it asked me to restart osu! which i did and know it won't open :S!

Supports score submission on public builds: http://dl.dropbox.com/u/16332218/osu%21.app.zip
Adding new maps still means hitting F5 a few times, else they won't display.

This works wonderfully, you can even see scores now. Thanks peppy, you've made this awesome game available to more people now.

Long time since I played online.. Thank you ppy :)
How
Works nicely. Now I can play osu! from mac without using bootcamp! (well still I will go windows and play thou.)
Nice job peppy.

Glad to hear success stories :D.
How
Well I found the bug, but this might not the big problem.
After I can access online from mac OSX, I tried to chat with my friend.
There is no problem in English but when I use Korean, the typing doesn't work properly. TNX.
(Comparison of same typing from me & my friend.)

@^: Yeah that is one of the reason I don't use OS X ver. of osu! anymore... Cannot type Korean letters properly.

Amazing! It works almost perfectly on my Mac.
Just the FPS drops are a lot higher when using effects than on Windows. Also the offset is a bit weird, so I had to change that in the options.
But else, great work!
emergist
It's so wonderful.

works great.
tested it in a macbook white @ 200/300 fps.

Works great, and faster than I expected, too. Thank you so much! :)

Hello to everyone. I just downloaded osu! (great game by the way) and i thought of sharing on installing osu and beatmaps the easy way or the most easy way at least for me. here it goes.

1 download osu! zip file from the downloads link.
2 extract the contents from the zip file and drop the osu! app on your desired destination. run (double click) osu! to start. osu should be running after patching etc. and will ask you to enter the user name and password. there it is osu! is installed.

Now to instal beatmaps I found it easier to just do the following.
download a beatmap form the beatmaps section. if downloaded using safari look for it on the downloads folder. once the file is located hold and drag it to the osu! icon (pink round osu!) this action will launch osu! and there you have it the new beatmap should be in the playlist. if not hit f5 key to refresh the playlist. note... make use to keep the original file extension osz. when dragging.

if you will still like to do it the explorer style follow the following.
right click on the osu! icon and choose show package contents click on it. next double click on the contents folder.
next double click resources folder next double click on the dosdevices folder. next double click on the c/ next osu! next and finally the songs folder.

hope it works as it did for me :D

I didn't realise it correctly handles dragging new maps onto the icon. This is interesting.
lepidopodus
Uhh, it's kinda hard to map like this, cannot edit timing sections.
I guess this is known issue already?

(Well and those hidden menus...)

EDIT: Whoops, puush account vanished, so screenshot also vanished.

EDIT2: puush fixed.

When i change my mouse sensitivity higher or lower than 1.0 it makes my pointer stutter until i put it back. Happens with my Deathadder and just the trackpad on my macbook. Anyone have any suggestions or ideas i can try to fix this?
Topic Starter

For the moment you will need to adjust your sensitivity in os x (or using the DPI selection on your mouse).
Jeg_old
There is spikes (about 0.2 seconds every 2-3 seconds) when i play it :( And it is just horrible when you play a game like osu. :( I want to play! :cry:

Use hackintosh on intel core 2 duo

And one additional thing - when i pick OpenGL support instead of DirectX app crashes and did not start again! Help!

I can't offer support for non-apple hardware due to the unstable nature of drivers on OS X. Please use windows.

I tried using this with my macbook pro but when I added the .osz files into the "songs" folder, the songs didn't appear on the songs list.... :cry: I'm not sure if this is related to this problem but, the "drive_c" file is placed inside the "Resources" folder, and the "wineprefix" folder doesn't exist at all.... Any solutions?
Miiouy
The mouse sensitivity bugs the mouse if increased :x
Except that, works fine here

Is it possible to open MP3 files to create beat maps? How?

I've also encountered an error when I want to switch from fullscreen to window mode. The screen goes beige. Here is the screenshot.

I've tried restarting osu, but it just reverts back to fullscreen and the same thing happens when I try to change it again.

Previously I had no problems with osu! on my Mac, but now the cursor freezes very often, and the game starts lagging.
No other programs are opened in the back, only osu!. I already use "low end pc". Is there a solution or not?

Nothing has changed here. Please try restarting your PC, closing other programs etc.

But is it possible to create Beatmaps on the Mac version?
Areswe
I experience bad lag when playing standard but not in ctb or taiko
I have tried low end pc and changing the sensitivity but nothing seems to help
I use X11 if that helps

Yes, you can!
All you have to do is locate inside the osu!.app these folders:

~/osu!/Contents/Resources/dosdevices/c//osu!/Songs

Just place your copy of the your .mp3 song in there, refresh your game a couple of times, go on Edit Mode, and it should work. :D

Works for me! :3

Nope. It's all for free. You have to download the songs online though. :P

Wooow for OS X! Thanks!!!!

I can't find the 'songs' folder. I have a MacBook Pro from 2011.
I'm probably sounding like an idiot but I just can't find it.
This is what it looks like. (I was trying to follow the, um, example in the beginning.)

From this folder go to drive_c/osu!/Songs

It's not working for me at all :( I add the MP3 to the songs folder and it doesn't work. I refresh the game 50 times and nothing happens. I restart osu! and nothing happens. I look in the folder and the file has disappeared.

EDIT : Nevermind, I got it working :)

I'm having success running it on my updated MacBook Pro(with Snow Leopard), though it does seem to lag a little bit when playing the songs. Thank you for creating this! It may be lagging, but it's better than nothing at all!

Make sure you set graphic options through settings and to try flicking the Frame Limiter option to see if that changes things any.

I play it on my Macbook too, and for people who can't get new Songs:
Try to delete a song, it always works for me. I download the songs, move them to the right folder,
start the game, close it and then delete a song. After that it works. Its pretty stupid and annyoing so I don't play
often on my mac, but this might be useful for you ;w;
