YellowFruit

Post by arjunvivekraj21 »

Hello everyone! My name is Arjun Vivekraj and I am from Eden Prairie High School. We are hosting a tournament called SOAR and wanted to download YellowFruit. I downloaded it already on my windows laptop but my co-tournament direction, Vineel, is not able to download it as he is using Mac. Is there a different place we have to go to download it on MACOS.

There's a Mac package for version 3.0.0, though I haven't used it and can't attest to it. I don't know why one wasn't made for 3.0.1 or 3.0.2.

Thank you! However sadly it's not working :(. Is there any other links for MACOS?

YellowFruit hasn't been supported on MacOS for a couple of years now - a couple people have tried running various console commands and making some edits to try and get a Mac version working, but I don't believe any of those have been successful (at least not for the current version of MacOS, to my knowledge). There is no other link to download it, I'm afraid - you'll likely have to have just one of you do stats throughout the day, or switch to SQBS, which I believe does run on current Macs, but is a bit clunkier to use.

I have a binary that works on my Sonoma machine for 3.0.1 (3.0.2 has unsupported fonts that haven't worked with any Mac version I've had). A link is here (download the zip file and it should be a working mac app since I don't know how to package software).
