No graphics on MacOS High Sierra when using .dmg release binary

Using Enigma 1.21 stable release version on MacOS High Sierra, I am not seeing any graphics, only text. Here is an example screenshot:

Is there a compiled version of the master branch (development version) to test?

EDIT: The homebrew version, installed with brew enigma install works! It is just the downloaded .dmg from the Enigma homepage that exhibits this bug.

@rsn8887, did you happen to try this on Mojave? (OS 10.14)

Using the DMG, I see what you are describing, text only, no images. Also I see no mouse cursor.

Installing via brew install enigma then running enimga, I get even less, just a light grey screen.

Either way, I can hear the audio, and use the keyboard to select buttons, but now way to tell what I'm actually doing.

For anyone else looking to get this running on later versions of OS X, I ended up using the tip given here:

Basically use the 1.21 release DMG, but replace one of the libraries included in the app package.

If anyone here knows how to build a Mac OS package from the git master, please do so and let us know so we can publish the result. Unfortunately it seems we don't have this knowledge any more in the devel team.

Text is grafic; you mean no sprites.
describing -> relating; mouse cursor -> pointer; less -> lesser; now -> no

FYI the binaries built by MacPorts work properly on 10.6.8 and on 10.15. I haven't tried all the systems in between.

I'm closing this issue as we are moving on to 1.30 and are now aware of how Homebrew got things built in 1.21. There doesn't seem much point in incorporating what they did in a 1.22 for non-Homebrew distribution.
