Description

--------------------------------------

1) Game Name and ID (as it appears in right click > properties: "GZ2P01",
"RSBE01", etc):
Super Smash Bros. Melee, GALE01

2) What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
Game should start, instead it says
"Failure to initialize video backend"

3) Did the game ever work correctly (i.e. not have this problem) on an
earlier version of dolphin? Please specify the exact revision when the
problem began.

Works fine with Dolphin 3.5

4) What steps will reproduce the problem?

  1. Be using OSX and Dolphin 3.5 - 114
  2. Try to load SSBM
  3. It done broke

5) What version of dolphin are you using (32bit/64bit along with the
version as it appears in the title bar, etc)? Do not say 'latest version'
this changes multiple times a day.
On what operating system, drivers, and hardware? Be sure to list OS,
graphics driver information, and video card model if you are having
graphics problems, for example.

Dolphin 3.5 - 114
Running on OSX (x64) on a MacBookPro 2.3GHz Intel Core i5

Game runs 100% fine on earlier builds of dolphin

Since mine has been merged with this issue, I wanted to paste the detailed testing I did for each version. The error message listed only occurred in a subset of builds.

3.5-119 -> 3.5-134: Crashes when attempting to load any game
3.5-102 -> 3.5-118: Game will not load. Error message "Failed to initialize video back end"
3.5-33 -> 3.5.80 - Crashes when attempting to load game
3.5-3 Works
3.5 - Works

Any news on this? Build 320 is STILL crashing when attempting to load a game.

If it is crashing now, then something is wrong on your end. The code has been reverted for a couple weeks now.

So, I should enter a new ticket? It IS technically different before,
as it stops responding instead of crashing.

I guess I'll start downloading older versions again to figure out what
build broke it for me.
