The Apple JIT is very, very different than the ARM JITs we're used to. It has a lot of checks built into its code to ensure it can operate safely. It also uses a much more complex caching mechanism. All of this means that we had to write a lot of specialized ARM JIT notes and do a lot of work to make it break free of the ARM instruction set. The result of all that work is that we can now run native macOS code on AArch64 and M1 devices. Given that we had to do a lot of work to support the AArch64 platform, we don't want this to be a continuous effort on top of pre-existing Dolphin builds. While there is a port of the JIT code that powers the M1, we made the decision to just port the whole thing. The main reason for this is that the JIT is just that complex, and the less we need to change, the better. Also, given that the ARM JIT may have to be rewritten at some point for various reasons (like support for MIPS), we also don't want that work to be duplicated.
Fortunately, implementing a new user interface that works across all device types is much simpler. When you're limited to only one Dolphin device, it may be difficult to fully utilize the valuable features it offers. Now, as an official M1 device, we have the ability to test on all three platforms.
We're really proud of what we've accomplished here and hope that other developers and users take advantage of it. You'll still need to jump through the hoops we've set up to get it working, but hopefully, if you're experienced enough, you'll be able to make all of this work fairly simply.
To get it working, you'll need to run macOS 10.13.4 or higher. To run our software, you'll need a x86_64 or x86 compatible computer. Most modern x86_64 computers will suffice. You'll also need 10.13.4 or higher, as the minimum required to use macOS's built-in Dock (we don't know about the new systemUI, but it'll probably require the 10.13.4 update).
You can download the installer from the Dolphin site . It will automatically download the installer for you, so just sit back and relax. Be aware that this installs a brand new port of the software, and you will lose any existing save state you may have. ed3faa56471
