Re: Basilisk II CPU usage and excessive temperatures on 10.1

OK. Problem solved. Since I didn't copy over my config file from the Mavericks machine that could still run the old BasiliskGUI, I recreated the config file from memory and from scratch. I couldn't find an extensive list of the parameters, but when I ran the new Catalina friendly BasiliskGUI, I saw...

Re: Beta version of new Basilisk II GUI

This is great. It even helped me figure out what was wrong with the high CPU usage/temperature problem on Catalina (See my thread for details). I only have one suggestion and I don't think it'll be too difficult to implement. There's at the moment no way to re-order disk images , so if you want to c...

Re: Basilisk II CPU usage and excessive temperatures on 10.1

I tried removing "screen win/1024/768/16" and setting frameskip to something preposterous (45) and there is no improvement.

It's definitely a Catalina problem... The CPU seems to have nothing to do with it.

Re: Basilisk II CPU usage and excessive temperatures on 10.1

Thank you all for your tips on how to build Basilisk with Xcode. At first I was getting the same error as Ronald P. Regensburg and setting the build system to Legacy fixed it. I was able to build it but unfortunately the temperature issue is still here... At least I learned something in the process!...

Re: Basilisk II CPU usage and excessive temperatures on 10.1

I got confirmation today from the other 68kmla member who has the same machine, albeit with 64GB of RAM (mine has 32). He experiences the exact same problem: Basilisk basically asks for 102% of the CPU and uses all it can get from the processor before the latter eventually thermal throttles... I can...

Re: Basilisk II CPU usage and excessive temperatures on 10.1

I know of at least one person on the 68kmla who has the same config. He's going to try and set up the latest build. The CPU usage is the same with both October and December builds. It ramps up to 101% usage even after a few minutes from the floppy screen or at idle when booted. Switching from an 040...

Basilisk II CPU usage and excessive temperatures on 10.15

I replaced my Mavericks based 2013 MBP with the new 16" Model running Catalina. The latter's got an i9 and when Basilisk is running it's reaching temperatures upwards of 85C with peaks in the 100s. I have to use AppPolice to restrict Basilisk and only then it's behaving correctly. Sheepshaver d...

Re: Issue with 2019 04 12 build

Hi all,
I'm new here. Been a long time lurker though.

I had the exact same issue with the December Build. For me it was the jit compiler that was causing it... The October build didn't have this problem.
