/jp/ I am success. After many tries and failures I finally got Scarlet Weather Rhapsody working on my mac. Up until this point I had ever game short of Touhou 10.5 and 12.3 working. It took time experimenting with wine and crossover games until I got all of them to work. The only game that eluded me was SWR. Finally using Cider and the app for modern warfare 2 as a base I managed to run Touhou 10.5 flawlessly, well only flawless fullscreen, but I am happy with that.

I just thought you should know. Whether you care or not.

>> No.6419247

Alas, I spoke of Success too soon,
When I start the game the menu and whatnot loads fine,
When I start a level everything is fine,
I got 3 or 4 lines into dialogue to the point where the weather changes and the game unexpectedly quits.

I am failure.

are you uploading all the games at once, or just uploading them one at a time?

>> No.6419332

>>6419324
one at a time starting with PCB as that is one of the more simple games to run, some of the games after 10 are glitchy sometimes, and 1-5 run a completely different way.
I don't understand why megaupload isn't uploading the file though, I'm nearly 8 minutes in.

There used to be a site that had a whole selection of Touhou Mac Ports, running from EoSD to UFO. None of them were in English, but they worked without a single hitch.
Sadly, the site went down about a week ago. I can't imagine, though, that they were the only ones that had them?
(Basically they were just CZX_Diamond or something like that... basically just took a wrapper around the folders.)

>> No.6419369

Uploading Touhou 1-5 + emulator, actually working with megaupload this time.
Still requires CXZ engines I believe,

transfer rate sucks
about 30-40kbps

it'll be about 20 minutes.

>> No.6419375

>>6419335
Cause some of us *want* to run Touhou in every system we have our hands on.

I, for one, thank you for this, OP. But shouldn't you have started with the smaller ones in size?
Also, why not MediaFire?

Now don't get me wrong, I like macs. But seriously, your trying to solve your problems with the worst possible solution. The obvious answer is bootcamp and a bootleg version of windows.

>> No.6419411

>>6419375
okay, PCB is 940.9mb zipped, when I looked at mediafire, the most I could upload with a free account is 200mb, per hour, thus it is not feasible, megaupload for a free registered account caps my max filesize at 1024mb which is preferable since most of the Touhou games are over 1gb. Unless there is something to compress a 1gb file to less then 200mb mediafire is not feasible.

>> No.6419418

>>6419411
PCB on windows is 474 mb

>> No.6419424

>>6419399
The ideal solution yes, and I have done this, I have played what Touhou games, like 10.5 and 12.3, I couldn't play on mac on windows. I don't know why I want to have all my Touhou games working on mac, I think I really only want to do it for the sake of doing it. Prehaps also to learn a bit about how my computer works too.

Getting Touhou to work on windows: Easy Modo
Getting Touhou to work on Linux: Normal - Hard Modo
Getting Touhou to work on mac: Lunatic Modo.

I see the problem, I have TH12 packaged in there with it.
I think the components from wine and whatever else is in the package take up a few hundred megabytes too. I'm am fairly certain a virtual c:\ drive is there too.

I have been spending a great deal of time getting better at Touhou, Most of the games have been running smoothly on my mac, and I did the dirty work trying to get the games up and running months ago.
I am just having to re-remember everything I did before tonight for the sake of letting other people have the same oppertunity to play Touhou on their macs.

First megaupload link
Touhou 1-5 + emulator

http://www.megaupload.com/?d=N0ONF414

when you open up the inex emulator,
go to HDD 1 and press the ... button
then in the search box change the file type from *.hdi*
to *.* and search whatever directory you put the Tohou games in then hit open and start, if successful your game should run, text will be all screwed up though, hey at least you can play.

Well since this thread is a thread and I'd feel bad for making my own, I can't seem to get PoFV to run in English. The Japanese .exe works perfectly fine, but it just becrashulates the instant I launch when I run the English one.
It's never left C:/Program Files/* and the folder name is fine according to everything Google has told me. The font's installed. Did everything the readme and everyone else on the internet has told me.
There any other common fixes I'm unable to find or something? Help me /jp/, you're my only hope.

To those of you who still want the other games, if you're still in this thread, PCB is finally uploading now, only thing is 10 hours. When it finishes I may make another thread with the link, or I will upload 2 or 3 games and make one thread with all the links. I don't know.

It's not a huge issue if it 404's, I'll just make a new thread. I can't guarantee how quickly I'll be able to upload files anyways, between class and work Tues/Wed/Thurs I have almost no time to get on my computer, and my Astronomy exam Wednesday will only complicate that.

okay, mediafire is failing,
when it takes 5 minutes to upload just one 1.63mb file, at an upload rate of 130kbps (makes absolutely no sense) and then it says upload failed, there is a problem. Uploading my Touhou wallpapers folder with megaupload instead.
