Fix for macOS builds Sep 26th 2025, by Arisotura |
|
Not a lot to talk about these days, as far as melonDS is concerned. I have some ideas, some big, some less big, but I'm also being my usual ADHD self. Anyway, there have been complaints about the macOS builds we distribute: they're distributed as nested zip files. Apparently, those people aren't great fans of Russian dolls... The issue is caused by the way our macOS CI works. I'd have to ask Nadia, but I think there isn't really an easy fix for this. So the builds available on Github will have to stay nested. However, since I control this site's server, I can fix the issue here. So now, all the macOS builds on the melonDS site have been fixed, they're no longer nested. Similarly, new builds should also be fixed as they're uploaded. Let us know if anything goes wrong with this. |

Hello Arisotura, i'm using Macbook Air M1 and whenever I installed the MacOS arm64 build, it always failed when I opened it. The error's quote "Melon DS is damaged and can't be opened. You should move it to the trash. Any solution for this? I've hoped that this fix would fix this problem, but it's not. Thank you. |

| I'm asking someone who's more well versed in macOS stuff... maybe you downloaded the wrong build? |

You should download the universal macOS build. If it doesn't open, you have to open System Settings and go to the privacy/security settings, then scroll down and there should be an option to open melonDS anyway. It's like this because melonDS is not signed with a (paid) developer certificate. |

| @Nadia : yes, the universal macOS build worked, I'm sorry my previous question is the nightly MacOS ARM64 build. |

@Lukkun: This is typically caused by macOS's quarantine. Sometimes you can tell it to open anyway, but that does not always work. If you do not get the option to tell it to open anyway, there is a fix via Terminal. Run the following in Terminal, changing your path as needed. xattr -d com.apple.quarantine /Applications/melonDS.app It should run after. |
