That didn’t solve the other problems, though – hardware acceleration is disabled, which means my fairly snappy iMac runs like a dog.

Boom – suddenly all of my colors were correct again! I turned the second screen back on, which is attached via Thunderbolt to HDMI. It would be unusable with the “weird colors” if I wanted to do any graphics work. When starting the process, I turned off the second screen and went about installing, getting everything working, and back to developing software. But, there’s a simple fix (for me, at least).
#SNES EMULATOR MAC MOJAVE SERIES#
Though, reading the notes, it mentions machines with a Radeon 5xxx or 6xxx series GPU had weird colors. Well… shit.įortunately, there’s always someone somewhere that wants to get just a little more life out of their machine – in this case, the Mojave Patcher will do some trickery to load MacOS on a machine that’s not supposed to have it. The is a bit of an issue, since I’ve got to be able to compile a project for release very soon. And, even if it did, I probably can’t afford it.Īnd I certainly can’t afford a new Mac at the moment. While there’s external GPU’s for my iMac, I haven’t seen one that supports Mojave.


There’s some tech reasons for that – Apple moved to minimum standard for graphics cards for their system (they have to support Metal). After 7 years of service, the new OS (MacOS 10.14 “Mojave”) wasn’t going to be able to be installed on the old faithful. So, it was the end of the line for my 27″ 2011 iMac.
