I finally got this working thanks to a guy on the other forum, not sure if he's on this one.

Thanks to fathertedcrilly who is on this board

No idea if the member is here or not as I'm not a member there.

But can you make it available here to benefit other members ?

You have it now, I'll leave you to post it where you want to.

Hi there,

I am the same FatherTedCrilly that is on the MSPP forum

I have indeed successfully built uBee512 on MacOS.

I would emphasise that this is still a work in progress and should be treated as a beta until formally published on MSPP ( the official repository for uBee512 )

When everything is working, I will publish the revised source tree and MacOS binaries back to Monterey
Until then, it's probably best not to post the binary link ( or the binary ) here

For those who are interested, the thread on MSPP is https://microbee-mspp.org.au/forum/viewt...=25&t=3021

Thanks
Tony

That link will not work for many as its a closed, members only forum, but look forward to MAC version of ubee512.

Ahh, didn't think about that

The emulator is GPL licensed, so any binaries should be released with the source code at the same time.

The posted binary in the other forum was for testing only.

So if anyone is interested in helping me test it on MacOS, they should probably reach out directly to me

Until the official version is shared

Thanks
Tony

I have here a MacBook running Safari OS, is that suitable to try it on?

I presume you mean Sonoma ?

In that case, I have successfully built for Sonoma (v14.1)

Just working through few thing first and then I can share a provisional binary with you

The end goal is a unified code tree and binaries for macOS Monterey (v12) onwards

Thanks
Tony

Sorry I meant Sierra 10.12, an old unit, so looks like thats a no go then. It could be updated to High Sierra 10.13

Not necessarily so.

I would need access to a High Sierra install and would need to manually compile the required libraries

It's something worth looking at once I get the Monterey + version working properly

Thanks
