Mac Support
-
I didn't check what tatsu is doing in particular.
JavaFX has dedicated jars for Windows, Linux and Mac. Whether you took the Windows or the Linux release we provide, you are missing the JavaFX dependencies for Mac. The stacktrace indicates this as well. You would need a dedicated build for Mac. Not sure how tatsu worked around this.
-
If you want mac support you should start the client from Intelij and make it has no issues if that works we can provide a built for mac
-
There is a video in the Read me that shows how to use the client via Intelij

@Brutus5000
Not sure if you had read, but he was referencing this original post on it: https://forums.faforever.com/viewtopic.php?f=2&t=16947#p169818 . Don't want to take up too much of your time but if you look at those instructions, do you think this would still work?@axel12 are you saying just test to see if I can run the client from Intelij? I will start attempting this now and update you on my progress
-
Well I can built you can installer for mac but Ithink the client has bugs that make it unusable on mac. Those need to be resolved by someone on mac. Therefore you need to start it from Intelij and solve those. They are gonna be minor bugs. E.g. we have code that makes the icon blink but this code might not work on mac therefore would need to be wrapped in an
if(! isMac()){ ... }Just as an example but we will only know what is bugged out on mac if somebody tries...

Followed the Video in the readme to set up Intelij, and tried to run faf-client. Here is a majority of my output:1:29:33 PM: Executing task 'Main.main() --stacktrace'...

Gotta google what that means ...

@axel12
My misunderstanding then. I'm not sure I would have the capability to fix every bug to allow it to be run on a mac, given I have extremely limited developing experience.Because you have a better understanding of the code, would you expect these to truly be easy fixes? - for example, adding those if blocks. If it's not stuff like that, I don't think I am the person to lead the rebuild.
-
We can try it. Me making changes and you copying the Exceptions
and then use my code to fix them as long as they are easy fixes that is gonna work -
https://drive.google.com/file/d/1JiMZDQNEEsQoK-n23QsyNb0X4v41n4l4/view?usp=sharing
Checkout the feature/mac-support branch and try again I should have fixed the Exception above but there are sure gonna be more.
-
java version 14 on mac too I imagine?
your video doesn't play for me.https://github.com/FAForever/downlords-faf-client/issues/1972
-
Now how likely is it to be able to run faf on an m1 mac?
I don't have one yet, but that would be pretty sweet.
But given that it seems like it is no easy feat to get it to work even on intel macs I assume it might be a long shot
-
Let's see:
- Apple dropped support for OpenGL long ago and skipped Vulkan (required to emulate DirectX)
- Apple somehow disclosed device details so that Linux support since 2017 is reduced to basic features
- different CPU architecture will cause huge overhead on emulating x86.
Apple works hard for years to keep Linux developers out of their ecosystem. But Wine and Proton are primarily Linux applications. Maybe some hardcore fanboys try to support it, but it will never reach the compatibility again it once had.
