The Mac App Store isn’t the only app store out there for the Mac. Gamers are no doubt familar with Steam, and it offers a Mac version capable of installing any game supported on macOS. Installing software works the same as on Windows systems. There are few other notable app stores out there. I had citra working really well on my Windows 10 Pc. I was playing Animal Crossing New Leaf at 60fps 100% for a few hours. I closed citra and when I tried to play the game again it can barely get past 2fps and often goes to 0 fps. Thanks to anyone who can helps with this.

Building for all platforms

How To Install Citra Emulator

• If you have encountered such an error: /path/to/citra/externals/ does not contain a CMakeLists.txt file., while configuring in CMake, it means you forgot to add --recursive when git clone. You can fix it by the following commands to obtain all submodules:

Building for Windows

• For running Citra builds, make sure to have Qt5Core.dll, Qt5Gui.dll, Qt5OpenGL.dll, Qt5Widgets.dll, and SDL2.dll in either the application directory or in the system PATH. If not there those files are in C:Qt5.4msvc2013_64_openglbin,copy them here. Else, Citra will fail on startup.

• Also, make sure platforms/qwindows.dll in the application directory. If not there you will find it in C:Qt5.4msvc2013_64_openglpluginsplatforms by default. Just copy it.

How To Install Games On Citra Mac Os

• You will also need the x64 variant of Visual C++ Redistributable for Visual Studio 2015 from Microsoft (vc_redist.x64.exe), if you don’t already have it.

• QT 5.3 is known to fail in Windows building citra. Install QT 5.3.1 or greater for the result.

• If CMake keeps making Win32 builds, you may need to manually specify CMAKE_GENERATOR_PLATFORM with a string value of x64 when configuring.
