PCSX2/Mac - 0.9.6 Snow Leopard
[ Posted by zedr0n 20:56 on 28 01 11 ]
Work on 0.9.7 is in progress and with very promising results some of the changes are making it into the 0.9.6 build which is probably going to be the last for this version. You can download it here. The downloads repository for
pcsx2/mac is always located at pcsx2mac.net
The main improvement is proper implementation of memory protection handling for
pcsx2, which should give 25-50% performance boost depending on the game.
This build is only for Snow Leopard 10.6.3 or newer and includes updated ZZOgl 0.21.213 and zerospu2 installed by default.news icon

So, just to update, 0.9.7 compiles fine, most of the bugs have been rooted out, so it’s progressing nicely. Just a small preview, here’re first several minutes of ffx. Doesn’t crash after the first fmv anymore :)
ZZOgl has also been updated to match the more recent svn, so the video is running
pcsx2 0.9.7 beta 2 equivalent pretty much.
A 13 minute ffx playthrough on the latest release can you watch here –

post Critical update – 0.9.6

Apologies for this but I’ve been working on 0.9.7 today and this led to fixing a very big performance problem in 0.9.6. Please redownload the package again, this will include the updated binary. The performance difference should be 25% to 75% faster than before. For once, I can now play ffx full speed :)
Enjoy!
P.S. The first fmv for ffx is still broken, as 0.9.7 is booting bios already, I’m spending most of my time on 0.9.7 but I still have it on my ToDo list.

I’m releasing the latest 0.9.6 into the wild, the new link for the package is here. The package only works on Snow Leopard 10.6.3 and higher, you’ve been warned.
The new package includes the zerospu2/portaudio by default and the version of zzogl included is the latest r213 so no more downloads required.
The package should install fine on top of the previous release but I’ll also try to release an uninstaller at some point.

I’m still having problems setting up a SL in vm so got caught up in some 0.9.7 development. So, 0.9.7 is compiled and I have the gui showing up, lots more debugging still to do but it seems possible that 0.9.6 SL and 0.9.7 will go live the same week :)

The package has been just built and ready for delivery. The only thing left is to set up the SL virtual machine in vmware to test that the package works properly on empty SL machine and this should be released.
In other news, porting work has just started on 0.9.7 current svn. You can follow some progress if impatient here: Activity
