From: Ian McCall on 13 Feb 2010 18:31 Am trying to build libsdl to be a universal binary. I run: sh build-scripts/fatbuild.sh ....as suggested, and configure starts going through its paces. It doesn't complete though - says: checking for gcc-4.0 -arch ppc option to accept ISO C89... unsupported I then wrote the time-honoured hello_world.c and compiled it using 'gcc-4.0 -arch ppc *.c'. It compiled, produced the ppc output which then ran fine under Rosetta. Any ideas why configure might be getting itself tied in a knot? Cheers, Ian

When I last did it (which was a while back when I was looking at persuading people to port their games to the mac) it built ok as a univeral. It was openAL that I had the most hassle with. > I then wrote the time-honoured hello_world.c and compiled it using > 'gcc-4.0 -arch ppc *.c'.

Becasue someone took out (or added in) something in the autoconf script. Can't you just hack that around? -- Woody www.alienrat.com

Will have a look - can probably be overcome. I was trying to get the PS2 emulator going, pcsx2: <http://pcsx2-mac.quant0r.com/> Have now got it running fine, but alas I think this 2.4Ghz MBP is too wimpy. I wanted to play Rez, but it's crawling. Specs talk about needing 3.2Ghz+, so looks like I'm out of luck. Cheers, Ian

And was the reason I bought the Xbox in the first place, in fact! Is there a Dreamcast emulator + Rez that you could try instead? Cheers - Jaimie -- "But people have always eaten people!

There is and I downloaded it, but I must confess I haven't the slighted idea what to do with it. The files aren't as simple as 'point at this iso here' and never having owned a Dreamcast it's using terms i'm unfamiliar with. Maybe I can did a walkthriugh or similar. Cheers, Ian |
