#51 ROMs not loading in Quartz Composer

[Jody McAlavey]

Hi, I'm having the same issue with getting ROMs to load in the demo QC composition of OpenEmu. I am running OpenEmu 1.0.0b7 on Snow Leopard and QC v4.0.

ROMs work fine in OpenEmu standalone app but when I try loading various ROMs in QC I'm getting the following console error message:

I tried sfrahji's method of moving:

/Applications/OpenEmu.app/Contents/Frameworks/OpenEmuBase.framework/Versions/A/OpenEmuBase

to /usr/local/lib

but that's not working.

Is there a way I can get this to work in QC? Help much appreciated.

Thanks,

Try deleting /Users/avologists/Library/Application Support/OpenEmu/Cores and reinstalling OE.

If the problem still occurs, please ask on https://github.com/OpenEmu/OpenEmu/issues; we aren't really using this one.

Thanks for you help. I have figured out the issue, which was down to my own error. I somehow installed the wrong version of the QC plug in for the version of Open Emu I am using.

I have now installed the right one and have the NES emulator working in QC. I wasn't aware of the the forum on GitHub, so will direct further questions there.

Thanks for your time.
