So it works for me... but the problem is whenever I'm mapping, there's no toolbar. All it shows is the Apple icon, then "Wine" then "Window". No "File", "Open", etc

Is there a way to get stable latest on a mac yet? Trying to get score v2 on it

There is a way with the new alpha release, however it's unplayable for me. The input lag is unbearable, fullscreen isn't working properly, you get a tremendous lag spike on the first few seconds of every beatmap and framerate is locked to vsync, which is a horror for osu! Unless it gets fixed soon I'm taking a break and waiting patiently for the native version.

Yay, finally osx users have decent osu client.

Try using wrapper from my fork:
https://github.com/vsnrain/osu-wine

In short:
- Use MacDriver to get less lag but scaled resolution.
- Use staging-1.9.9 engine
- Use Stable40/Beta40/CuttingEdge release streams as they have required fixes.

Getting stuck on this after update and it doesnt run.

I wrote about it in my GH readme. Means that osu updater installed Stable distribution. It is built for dotnet4.0+ (4.5?) but wrapper has only 4.0 installed, and missing important patches. Open osu.config and change release stream for Stable40. Then get compatible osu executable (try this one from stable40, you can use it whenever you need to invoke updater with broken setup http://www.mediafire.com/download/1anmo ... osu%21.exe) and run it, it should download correct distribution. If then it runs but you can only hear sound with black screen, remove some files like osu!ui.dll, osu!gameplay.dll and hope that on the next launch updater will rebuild osu correctly.

unrelated, please don't read

Message has been deleted.

I was going to try it, but I am busy on this week, so I'll do it later. Dotnet45 support in wine is not very good, so I expect same issues that were before (like broken tabs, etc.). And dotnet45 osu builds does not have patches for osx/x11 so I don't see much point in using dotnet45 wrapper now.

can i get some help with opening osu! with xquartz? im not sure of how to use xquartz properly

It's work on OSX 10.11 ? Because when I launch Osu! :

The application X11 could not be opened.
An error occurred while starting the X11 server: "Failed to activate core devices."
Click Quit to quit X11. Click Report to see more details or send a report to Apple.

Help! I'm sorta new on the OS X release but for some reason Chinese / Korean / Japanese fonts show up as boxes!
I've 'run' the cjkfonts in the Winetrick under Wineskin Advanced in the Wineskin.app of the Osu! application, but nothing changed.
What is the problem and how can I fix it?

I tried to install cjkfonts through Winetricks by opening the Wineskin app in Osu!.app, but every time I launch Winetrick it crashes. Other than that, the Osu! application runs just fine but Asian fonts are still boxes.

I am running cutting edge version on mac with good results, here is how:

get osu wrapper from here:
https://github.com/vsnrain/osu-wine

get and install xquartz:
https://www.xquartz.org/

osu cutting edge executable:
https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/54714869/osu%21.exe

optional: wineskin staging engine STG 1.9.12
http://portingteam.com/topic/10055-wine ... e__st__300

Install xquartz and place osu!.exe inside wrapper to folder osu!/
Use wineskin.app inside wrapper to change executable to file we placed inside.

now try to change wrapper settings as following:
screenshots


Using this setup game is running smoothly. However when i try to update osu to Stable it crashes and wont start, perhaps "Stable" is not 4.0 ? Will try update it to beta if it runs.
Also wrapper has option to enable CSMT function inside Tools -> Config Utility to make use of staging, not sure how it works but maybe osu will run better/worse when enabled ? For me its causing visual artefacts and decreased fps and lags.

Sorry, but i am noob when it comes to mac stuff.

Can you explain this in simpler terms? I am confused what things like place osu!.exe inside wrapper to folder osu!/ means.

Thank you for your time.

my build is crashing, dont know why...

probably best working wrapper is vsnrain's which was cloned from peppy's github depository and modified, wish i knew what fixes been made there.
sad thing is that regedit and winetricks doesn't work on that wrapper.

i havent been getting results with vsnrains wrapper, i've been using the one you posted 11 days ago and its been working fine

Generally, the latest OSX build is incredibly smooth and responses swiftly towards my input.

I think one of the probable needs for improvement is the way to click out of the application, a.k.a Wine + Osu itself. Generally, command+tab can cause quite a few problems such as a black screen, and just a loss of audio.

Otherwise, I'm quite happy with the new release!

wow

IIRC there was a comment on somewhere that said that lazer should be compatible with Mac natively, should solve most of our problems. Also hope that it will be out soon.


Side note:
Swapping from Wine Engine 1.7.24D3DBoost (600+ FPS) -> 1.9.15 with only 120-180 FPS was actually a better idea than I originally thought. Although lower FPS, I don't have as many random lack of key hitting responses. Latency ended up a bit lower too. However, am only using ¼ cores for 1.9.15 for some reason.

On stable-fallback though.

Alrighty... Here I am on this official thread thingy...

I haven't been able to run osu! due to admin restrictions (I have a school-issued laptop). Last year, I was able to run osu! by going into the MacOS folder and dragdropping the WineskinLauncher and WineskinX11 exec. files into Terminal and running them that way. For some reason, that was able to bypass the block or something, because it worked every time. This also worked with any other exec. file. That's how I run puush and Colloquy (my IRC client).

This year, though, it doesn't work. I've never really looked at what I was doing when I dragdropped, but I noticed that if I dragdrop only the WineskinLauncher into Terminal, it will show me this: After showing me this, it closes itself and I am left with the default "- bash" window running.

The same exact thing happens when I dragdrop only WineskinX11! It closes itself and leaves me with the default "- bash" window.


____________________________________________________________________________________________________


There's something else that's super 4p00ky... If I run Wineskin, (by dragdropping the Wineskin exec. file from the MacOS folder, of course) then open a new Terminal window and dragdrop WineskinLauncher, (from the osu! MacOS folder) I get THIS message from the WineskinLauncher window:
This only happens when Wineskin is running. If Wineskin isn't running, it will just do the regular routine (pictured in the first box).

WineskinX11 closes itself as well.

____________________________________________________________________________________________________

So I suppose what I'm getting at... How the hell did I run this last night?
No but seriously... When I'm dragdropping all these files, what's really going ion? Why do the processes close themselves? Why doesn't it allow me to run the files? I can run anything else by dragdropping the exec. file from the MacOS folder, so why doesn't it work with osu!/Wine?

What do "WineskinLauncher" and "WineskinX11" actually mean? What are they supposed to do? etc. etc. etc.

Thank you for any information you can give me. I want to be able to play on my Mac again.

My school has ≈150mb/s internet and I want to spam maps with my osu!direct

I tried to install it but on Google Chrome, it says: "This type of file could harm your device." Do i install it?
(I installed the .dmg file, not the wine file.)

yes, install the game if you downloaded it from this website.

This build works, but its dropping frames inconsistently but sometimes it runs smoothly. Which is frustrating because everytime i was about to FC a song, the game losses frames and input lag etc .Unlike the 1.9.14 Build which was very smooth but glitches a lot (the texture went "weird"(i dont know how to explain it))

Another thing, why is there some missing icons such as the music player thingy in the top right corner and when you submit a score in the leaderboard, theres supposed to be a "up arrow" icon thingy (sorry vague language )

I have been playing on mac :/ I downloaded x11 so I could run it DX

We really need a new OS X release
I play on stable osx stable release that came out on october 2015 since the osx alpha release of april 2016 has massive imput lag.
The stable i play on has 10 ms input lag but im totally fine with that
The alpha had like a whole 500 ms input lag or something like that
The stable i play on has no hidden sliders for hidden
The stable i play on crashes when theres too many sliders at one time. Like the slider streams for big black
The stable i play on wont crash like that when running vsync but vsync causes MASSIVE input lag, so i play on 120 fps which when higher, decreases the amout of slider required to crash the game
The stable reads skin files differently so it wont recognize sliderendcircle.png and some other things
The stable has no scorev2 so i cant participate in some tournaments and world cup dream is practically dead

I'm sorry but X quartz isnt working out for alpha

After months of not finding time to fix the remaining problems with the OS X build of osu!, I have decided to make it public in its current state. You may have issues importing songs, but this can usually be fixed by mashing escape or alt-f4.

Please note this is a test release (beta if you like) and there are known bugs. That said, feel free to share your experiences in this thread and try and help each other out until the bugs are ironed out .


http://m1.ppy.sh/osu!.20141010.dmg
http://m2.ppy.sh/osu!.20141010.dmg


Compatible with OS X 10.6~10.9.x

Things to know:

1. The first time you run osu!, it may take up to 5 minutes to start. This is due to X11 (the graphical subsystem) rebuilding a font cache.
2. This build will always start the updater when you run it. It will update to newer releases and therefore when the remaining issues are fixed you will automatically receive the fixes.
3. Importing songs may get stuck. If this happens, try alt-f4 or esc mashing, or quit osu! and run it again.
4. To see the osu! folder, right-click on osu!.app and choose "Show Package Contents" then navigate to Contents/Resources/winePrefix/drive_c/osu/
5. Apparently you can load new songs by dragging the .osz file to the osu! icon.

Adding Beatmaps:

Open the package:


Navigate to the songs folder:


Drag your osz files inside:


Run osu! and goto song selection (or hit F5 if you are already there).

Note that you can make a shortcut to the songs folder on your desktop by dragging the folder while holding command and option. This should make it easier to load new maps for now!

Does anyone else have problems downloading new maps? Whenever I add a new map, osu gets stuck on the beatmap processing screen, and then it won't work again unless I remove the map from my songs folder and restart the game.

This is on 10.12.2.

edit: So something weird I noticed is that it lets me add beatmaps if I delete a few of my old ones (doesn't look like it matters which ones I delete). Idk why that could be, because I didn't think there was any kind of limit on how many maps you can have.

Can i change it to stable(latest)

thanks will try it out

can't wait for a native client uwu

I decided to delete all wrappers that i have created.

Reason:
operating system uses UUID to identify system (universally unique identifier) Which means that when more people uses same osu wrapper that has same UUID it can trigger anti cheating detection.
I recently got an email that states "We have noticed cheating / foul-play / abnormal activity on your account." which result my account being rollbacked 4 months back in time...

There is no need to risk mine or another people's account.

Don't PM me because i don't care anyways, which means i will not provide you any help about building wine wrappers or get osu running for you. Get over it.
Just wait for osu!lazer to get finished and release natively for MacOS.

Sorry for this :/

Just wait for native osu!
