A "backport" release, [1.13.2](https://github.com/TASEmulators/BizHawk/releases/tag/1.13.2), is available for users of Windows XP, 7, or 8.1 32-bit.
It has many bugs that will never be fixed (backports have ceased) and it doesn't have all the features of the later versions—you should probably get a new operating system instead.

#### macOS (legacy BizHawk)
EmuHawk depends on certain libraries for graphics, and these don't work on macOS. Users on macOS have three options:
* Use another machine with Windows or Linux, or install either in an x86_64 VM (WINE is not a VM).
* Use another machine with Windows or Linux, or install either in an x86_64 VM (Wine is not a VM).
* Use an older 1.x release, which was ported to macOS by @Sappharad (with replacements for the missing libraries), via Rosetta. Links and more details are in [this TASVideos forum thread](https://tasvideos.org/Forum/Topics/12659) (jump to last page for latest binaries). See [#3697](https://github.com/TASEmulators/BizHawk/issues/3697) for details.
* For the technically-minded, download the [source](https://github.com/Sappharad/BizHawk/tree/MacUnixMonoCompat) of an older 2.x release. @Sappharad put a lot of work into it but ultimately decided to stop.
* ...or use the Nix expression as a starting point instead.

For adding new features it's especially important, because details are often left out of the issue tracker, and we may want to make sure the new addition is future-proofed.
With regards to core development, we're not particularly interested in PRs adding cores out-of-the-blue, but if you have experience in emulator development please get in touch. We have a wishlist of cores to port, and on top of that, many of our in-house cores are without a maintainer.
