Mac Error: Your GPU may not support OpenGL 3.3, or you do not have the latest graphics driver

This is a known issue, you can either update your mac os or use an older citra build, take a look at the open issue and try the mentioned citra builds: btw, not a lot of people seem to try the mac os web drivers, currently only available on 10.13, you can try that.

[AuraOfTheDawn]

You could also run citra through command line, instead of the GUI, which would let it function on MacOS 10.13

Here’s some issues I found with your log that might help.

• Enabling Accurate Multiplication is recomended in certain games. If you are experiencing graphical glitches, try enabling this option.
• The ROM you are attempting to run is corrupted. Look here for instructions on how to properly dump ROMs from your 3DS. https://citra-emu.org/wiki/dumping-installed-titles/

i don.t understand what you mean by this, or how you would do it, sorry.

I have problems with openGL 3.3

open a terminal inside citra’s folder and type ./citra 'path to your rom.3DS'
