You need to use SDK 10.13 or older.

SDK 10.14 or newer has issues with SDL and/or OpenGL compatibility.

Seems to be SDL, had the same issue today. Setting the following options in the the options.cfg made OXC startup as expected:

Code: [Select]

  useOpenGL: true
  useOpenGLShader: Shaders/raw.opengl.shader
  useOpenGLSmoothing: true
  useScaleFilter: false
  useXBRZFilter: false
  vSyncForOpenGL: true
While it wasn't using OpenGL before but the SDL Software renderer, afaik?

Using DMACOS_SDLMAIN_M_PATH, DCMAKE_OSX_SYSROOT & DCMAKE_OSX_DEPLOYMENT_TARGET and building with 10.13 fixed the Issue! Thanks!

Works with the SDK10.15 build. Thanks for the hint!
