The next generation PPSSPP Helper releases!
It's been completely redesigned.
Now PPSSPP Helper is cocoa-based.
Some snapshots:
Compiled versions on Mac OS X is always late. So I decide to make it on my own.
With this app, you need not to wait for someone else to update and compile PPSSPP. You can do it on your own!
I'm not a professional, so there may be bugs in the program. Thank you for your report in advance.
The app requires Xcode, HomeBrew, sdl(use homebrew to install), cmake(use homebrew to install)
so you can follow the steps:
1. download xcode for free from the AppStore.
2. open terminal and copy this 'ruby -e '$(curl -fsSL https://raw.github.com/mxcl/homebrew/go)'' into the terminal window and press enter. this step is to install homebrew.
3. after finishing installing homebrew, type 'brew doctor' and press enter. if homebrew is ready, there won't be any feedback.
4. type 'brew install sdl' and press enter, and then sdl will be smoothly installed into your mac.
5. use the same way to install cmake.
Now enjoy PPSSPP Helper!
Current app is based on AppleScript.
Now I decide to move all codes of my app to cocoa-based.
3/4 of the next generation PPSSPP Helper are finished until 18 July, 2013.

update 2013.07.11:
PPSSPP_Helper_eng_v1.1.zip (Size: 368.63 KB / Downloads: 456)
[fix some bugs]
if you want to customize the app, see post #5, and you will get a version which can be opened by AppleScript Editor

You should have posted in the Builds, releases and ports subforum...
I move this thread.

Xcode and sdl installed...
cmake: command not found
I solve this - install Cmake-2.8.11.2
I think need add this info to the app.

It's a simple app made by AppleScript. Apps i post formerly are run-only apps. Now here's the app
PPSSPP_eng.app.zip (Size: 355.46 KB / Downloads: 471) which can be opened with AppleScript Editor.
BTW. if it is convenient to you, please give me some suggestions and help to promote the app. thanks

Thanks!
First suggestion
need add in compile part this string 'do shell script'cp -r /Developer/PPSSPP/lang ~/' - it's add lang support for international users.
Also i try to promote your app in Russian PPSSPP communiti.

I'm now trying to move all codes of the app into cocoa-applescript in the Xcode. If I succeed, the app will be much more powerful and can be localized easily.

Hmmm...
Strange:
3 warnings and 2 errors generated.
make[2]: *** [CMakeFiles/Core.dir/Core/HLE/sceKernelModule.cpp.o] Error 1
make[2]: *** Waiting for unfinished jobs....
make[1]: *** [CMakeFiles/Core.dir/all] Error 2
make: *** [all] Error 2

sorry for reply so late.
current app is based on shell script.it is just like a bunch of terminal lines with GUI.
in fact, several days ago, i tried to compile ppsspp and got the same errors as you post. so there should be something wrong with source codes.
p.s. now i move all app codes into cocoa.
3/4 of the next generation ppsspp helper are finished!

Good news!
Waiting for release

I re-download sources and...
All compile done!

If I choose update - get errors on compile;
If I Re-download all sources - compile done.

I don't know what's the reason... maybe some files can't be updated through command 'git pull'..
I have taken a trip for 5 days since last week. Now I am about to start programming.

Now I change
to
and update source...
All compile done!

(07-23-2013 12:31 PM)Dreamer... Wrote: Now I change

cd /Developer/PPSSPP && git pull && git submodule update --init && sleep 3 && killall Terminal

to

cd /Developer/PPSSPP && git pull https://github.com/hrydgard/ppsspp && git submodule update --init && sleep 3 && killall Terminal

and update source...
All compile done!

In fact, if there is a .git folder in the PPSSPP folder, 'git pull' is enough, because .git contains many infos.
I think the probable problem is that submodule is not up-to-date when it is updated in the server.
:)the job of the next generation of ppsspp helper remains 'compiling ppsspp' step and localization to finish. Progress indicator really does benefits to the app. give you some snapshots.
Since, sometimes, git server does not feedback the speed, I set the speed to 0.
