Hi, I am author of glChAoS.P Please tell me more about your problem in OSX (GPU type?) Unfortunately I got very trouble with (deprecated) OpenGL in OSX, and I'm seriously thinking of abandoning development on mac... moreover the "pure rendering" operations result faster in WebGL versoin

I coult test it only in 10.14.x with AMD GPU.

Please, read also my reply @gunn

P.S. I'll try to signing glChAoS.P in future release Sorry, I'm not a expert mac developer, only a "discreet" *uniX developer... I would be glad if someone managed the OSX release in github ;)

Thank you for releasing this wonderful application! It really made my day.

I did demonstrate it to my daughter to show how mathematics can be beautiful.

Congratulations on your use or Dear ImGui, it's a nice use of this API!

I could run it on Windows X but had no luck with macOS. 2 systems have old NVidia GPUs and one is a MacMini with an intel GPU.

Thanks for your words: I love math (also) for this, and I'm glad your daughter gets into math thanks to glChAoS.P ;) I'll be honest: never tested glChAoS.P with NVidia in OSX, and tested Intel GPU in the 1.1 release (I'll test it soon) ... although I would expect it to work with GeForce over the GTX 4xx series and with Intel GPU above HD4000 (Intel is very slow)... but OpenGL on Mac is always an unknown, and must be tested

I just updated the OSX zip archive. Nothing new: just integrate (added) "missed" apple script, from github source code.

[FraKtus]

That was the missing part!

Launching the app from the applescript still does not work but launching it from the terminal does the trick. The error of the applescript is "sh: ./glChAoSP_OSX: No such file or directory (127)".

I do something like this from the terminal: cd /Users/..../glChAoS.P-1.4.0

./glChAoSP_OSX

And I see a beautiful fractal!

Now, with last update, the missed script was added and also was corrected the "No such file or directory" error (was related to security exception unidentified "downloaded" software, and Finder returned me a "private" link, not the real one) So I rewrote the script: now seems work

The new release file is glChAoSP_140.zip for all the O.S.

[BrutPitt]

Thanks for report! Yes, I know... in the glChAoSP_1_40.zip archive appear that error (I zipped it from Windows). I already had uploaded a separated glChAoSP_OSX.zip archive, zipped directly on Mac... and it seems work. Thanks again ;)

[BrutPitt]

Can I ask you on which GPU (brand and model) it runs? While OS X is ver.10.13.6, right? So I add it between the hardware and software tested, thanks.

[FraKtus]

I am ashamed but my GPU is an old GT 650M :-) 1 FPS but it works :-)

The Mac mini is still unhappy and says: ./glChAoSP_OSX Error: NSGL: Failed to find a suitable pixel format

But it's also an old Intel HD Graphics 3000. So please don't drop the macOS port it's working for most configurations.

[BrutPitt]

Thank you very much, has been very important to know that with Nvidia card, glChAoS.P (at least) runs on macOS. Yes, Intel need of HD 4000 GPU, or above, that supports OpenGL 4.1. Thanks to supporting me in macOS testing... No, I don't stop the OSX develop, but I need more collaborative people, like you (also tests and feedbacks, on several PC, are importants).

...and mostly ... I don't would your daughter to stop math study ... :D ;)
