Yay, finally osx users have decent osu client.

Screenshot:

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
SPOILER
In my stupid opinion, osu updater is a horrible horrible mess. It has mind of it's own and does not give a f about what do you want to do. Either it is badly designed and horribly broken, or made intentional to just piss people off. It would be good to turn off updater/fallback mechanism completely or at least make it do what it is supposed to do - install latest version from release stream configured in osu!.cfg, not decide on itself what's better and automatically change osu!.cfg accordingly. But what do I know.

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.

i will try to make one. do you know what are required dependencies and libraries for osu to install on wine?
I'm not completely sure now, but for previous experiments msxml3, gdiplus, and maybe directx was enough.

im confused on what to do with the contents of the "osu-wine-master" folder still.

Uhm...

Is it just me or are all the download links on osx.ppy.sh giving a 404 Error by nginx??

I have tried pretty much all versions back to the first.

EDIT: Nevermind, its working now. Heres hoping it works!

Hey everyone. I was wondering if it would be possible to open source the native OSX code base? I would love to help on my free time!

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.
Thanks :)

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:

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.

Oh! Thank you very much, it works very well on my mac now.
My apologies for not noticing something so obvious on my own.

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!

I downloaded this and left osu! minimized for about 3 minutes (adding in my skins) and it gave my mac a kernel panic :/
