XAudio2 enging and C++ errors at launch

[mules50]

I have followed all the instructions and have gotten PROM setup and running on my MBP 2018 running 10.15.5.

Whenever I go to launch a game though I get the following 2 error messages:

When I click ok, PROM quits. What do these errors mean and how can I go about fixing them?

This looks to be the runtime issue within the current Wineskin wrapper, the next release shouldn’t have this issue when used with a compatible Engine build namely WS11WineCX19.0.1-1 & WS11WineCX64Bit19.0.1-1

Awesome! Is there an ETA of when the new version is going to be released?

Just following up on the above. I had to reinstall PROM after some corruption and am now running into this issue as well.

[Gcenx]

@mules50 the release is currently being tested by myself and PaulTheTall (PortingKit), hoping the last reanimating issues were resolved with the build I just finished.

@brianmcdz the XAudio issue could just be the runtime (haven’t checked)
The C++ issue would be resolved by installing the required c++ runtime using winetricks not the emulators installer

Getting This Error.

Same problem, sadly I dont know whats is missing in order to fix/install it

[brianmcdz]

In the interim, I went back to PCSX2 1.4.0 and PROM 1.0.1 that work for me as a combo.

Awesome, I will try downloading PROM 1.0.1 and PCSX2 1.4.0

[PabloUgalde]

Downloaded 1.0.1 but i am unable to open the file. It says that is damaged. It was quite troublesome to download it from MEGA (took me 3 days haha)

[PabloUgalde]

Cant make 1.0.1 on Catalina. Hope it get fix in the next uodate. Thanks

[Gcenx]

@PabloUgalde i forked the project here and rebuilt it with some expanded instructions on the README

Also PROM isn’t really damaged that’s just how macOS handles unsigned binaries that are also downloaded using a third party browser

I was getting the same two errors (2017 MB Pro, OS 10.15.4). Changing the audio output settings (Config > Audio (SPU2) > Plugin Settings...) in PCSX2 made the XAudio2 error go away, but not the C++ error. I'm not sure if this will be the 'correct' audio setting, as can't test it yet. :)

I have this problem too. Weird thing is when I put renderer on gs video plugin on null, game works with black screen. Maybe this might help developers what the problem is. My spec is mac pro mid 2012, catalina 10.15.5, processor: 2.5 GHz Dual-Core Intel Core i5, memory 8 GB 1600 MHz DDR3, graphics Intel HD Graphics 4000 1536 MB. Games that I want to play are playable when I checked with compatibility on pcsx2. Hope my spec isnt the issue.

Ah I cant wait till the new version solves this problem..

[Gcenx]

@sjaykub if you check my other reply I linked to a forked version of this project were I’ve rebuilt it and included additional instructions

[sjaykub]

@Gcenx No, still no luck. I downloaded thru safari and followed your instruction but still c++ Runtime error

[sjaykub]

@Gcenx Or is it that I have to download PROM you recently edited. I didnt know how to do it so I downloaded from firedlad97's.

[Gcenx]

@sjaykub you need to download the copy from my fork, ignore “releases” section on the form as it will mirror this one.

[sjaykub]

@Gcenx , I know if I clixk here button under your instructuon, I get jumped to firelad97's. If it is not under release where can I get a copy you edited? It is not the beta version under firelad97's though right? I tried that one too.

[Red1860]

@Gcenx I am getting no executable found error.

[Gcenx]

@Rohan200220 did you grant permissions when requested, if you don’t it won’t be able to access anything within ~/

[Red1860]

@Gcenx What permissions?

[sjaykub]

Meanwhile can anybody tell me how to download from Gcenx's fork?

[Gcenx]

@Rohan200220 macOS Catalina has additional restrictions now on user directories and additional permissions are required to access these.

When attempting to install something from Downloads you should have received a prompt requesting permissions to access your download directory

[sjaykub]

@gcenx it doesnt even ask for permission, it goes straight to no executable found error.

[sjaykub]

OMG I am not giving up here. I gonna play pcsx2 with my mac someday!!!

[sjaykub]

I just need to play FIFA 2005 with my shitty mac and it even has a spec for it. I just need to get over this one step of c++ error. SMH

[Red1860]

@Gcenx Thanks! Your Fork works! But one problem, i loaded god of war 2, it gave me the ps2 intro screen and then a black screen, and thats it

[Gcenx]

@Rohan200220 let me guess you used 1.6?, use 1.4 with the DirectX9 graphics plugin.

I did read a guide that says you can use the DirectX9 plugin on 1.6 but I didn’t try as my Mac is trash

[Red1860]

@Gcenx alright, i’ll try pcsx2 1.4.
