Desktop Runtime not working on MacOS

[appcellphone]

@PeytonPlayz595

Hello hello, please help me, I downloaded a zip file on my macOS silicon chip, then I did chmod +x for gradlew and ran ./gradlew runclient but I still got the 2 errors below. Thank you for sharing this amazing project!

You're gonna have to update your repo with the latest commits, I accidentally left some imports in the code for the browser runtime, and those API's are not supported in the desktop runtime. I fixed it in this commit so you must be using a slightly outdated version.

@PeytonPlayz595 Yay Thank you so much! The Task :compileEaglerJava now done but the client do not show the window, here the latest log i see in the console:

When I run it a pop up appears that says launch renderdoc and continue (optional) and you just have to click ok

[appcellphone]

@PeytonPlayz595 How can we active or accept the renderdoc because I try "Show all windows" in the terminal but nothing happen or showing:

[PeytonPlayz595]

@appcellphone I've never used MacOS, are you able to provide a screen recording showing how you run it?

[PeytonPlayz595]

Ik in the build.gradle there is this code, I'm not sure what it does, I'll have to ask radman since he made it but it has something to do with Mac:

if (System.getProperty("os.name").toLowerCase().contains("mac")) {
    jvmArgs '-XstartOnFirstThread'
}

What happens when you remove that code?

-XstartOnFirstThread is a vm arg required for mac users to run the client as mentioned here: https://stackoverflow.com/questions/28149634/what-does-the-xstartonfirstthread-vm-argument-do-mean and here: https://www.lwjgl.org/guide

that code in build.gradle detects if the user is using macOS and if yes it adds the vm arg "-XstartOnFirstThread"

its used in mcpReborn's build.gradle too: https://github.com/Hexeption/MCP-Reborn/blob/1.20/build.gradle

[PeytonPlayz595]

Oh, when I googled it I couldn't find anything about it.

[appcellphone]

@PeytonPlayz595 I can setup the debug in clion and i see that it stop at: double r = win.getDevicePixelRatio();

[appcellphone]

And from the code, we can hide the renderdoc confirm by adding args 'hide-renderdoc'

tasks.register('runclient', JavaExec) {
    classpath = sourceSets.eagler.compileClasspath
    group = "ShadowClient"
    description = "Runs the client"
    classpath sourceSets.eagler.runtimeClasspath
    if (System.getProperty("os.name").toLowerCase().contains("mac")) {
        jvmArgs '-XstartOnFirstThread','-Dorg.lwjgl.util.Debug=true', '-Dorg.lwjgl.util.DebugLoader=true'
    }
    if (project.hasProperty("appArgs")) {
        args Eval.me(project.appArgs)
    }
    args 'hide-renderdoc'
    workingDir "./desktopRuntime"
    main 'net.lax1dude.eaglercraft.v1_8.internal.lwjgl.MainClass'
}

[PeytonPlayz595]

@PeytonPlayz595 I can setup the debug in clion and i see that it stop at: double r = win.getDevicePixelRatio();

That's the code for the browser runtime, for the desktop runtime the classpath needs to be set to src/lwjgl/java instead of src/teavm/java

[appcellphone]

@PeytonPlayz595 Yay, thank you for patiently supporting me, I really appreciate it! I have deleted the teavm code so that PlatformRuntime is selected from src/lwjgl/java. And when debugging, the program stops at: windowHandle = glfwCreateWindow(windowWidth, windowHeight, "Eaglercraft Desktop Runtime", 0l, 0l);

bro, just download the repo again, go to the src folder and ONLY DELETE THE FOLDER CALLED "teavm" and DO NOT DELETE "lwjgl"

[appcellphone]

@radmanplays Thank you so much, after attempting to delete the folder in src, I still encountered the program halting. I tried to find ways to display a window if any, but no window or dialog appeared.

I don't get any errors while launching. However, I cannot start the client. It will get stuck at 75% :runclient. This is what it looks like for me.

[PeytonPlayz595]

Try setting up the project in eclipse and running the eaglercraftDebugRuntime.launch configuration and see if it'll run like that,

[PeytonPlayz595]

@orionzleon @appcellphone You will have to use the browser version, it doesn't have any natives for MacOS

[appcellphone]

@PeytonPlayz595 Thank you for the incredibly useful information! What operating system do you normally use to code and debug in Eclipse? If I use the browser version, does that mean I will code in Java and then build it into JavaScript and test it on the web?

I use Windows 10, and yes, you program in java and run gradlew generatejavascript to build the JavaScript client, the directory for the web client is /javascript

[appcellphone]

Yay! Thank you so much! I will trying that way!
