Black screen on OSX

#1 Post by binomine »

I unzipped the download, and I clicked the app, but all that comes up is a blank screen.

DoomRL is also not working. Shouldn't macs just work?

Another edit:

I've been looking at my log, and it says:

Available video driver: cocoa
Available video driver: dummy

dummy is probably not the best video driver available.

Macs only "just work for" Apple software.
I suggest making a bug post and supplying the log file.
My feedback meter decays into coding. Give me feedback and I make mods.

Apparently someone else has the same error on the bug report forum. Gotta go there.

Moved topic to the appropriate forum.
And it was such a good idea...

I'm seeing that black screen upon launch as well. This is after upgrading the OS to 10.12 "Sierra". T-engine was working fine before.

Here's the stdout in the console:
