Mac OS X 10.10 users: an update will be available over the weekend which fixes compatibility with the OS. For all other users it will be a very minor update, mostly fixing a few small compatibility issues with simfile background animations.
StepMania 5 beta 4a has been released.
This is a minor update of beta 4 that exists primarily for Mac OS X 10.10 users. If you've upgraded to the new OS X 10.10 and want to continue using SM5, you'll need to update!
Big thanks to GitHub user jberney for submitting the pull request that fixed this!
This build also fixes some BackgroundEffects errors, and adds some new NoteSkin metrics for themers to try out.

Not sure if this is the best place to post this, but I'm still having a lot of (game breaking) issues with Beta 4a under Mavericks.
First, fullscreen is broken. In fullscreen, I can hear sound and can tell the game is running and receiving input, but all I see is a black screen. Everything shows up fine in windowed mode.
Secondly, and more importantly, the the game crashes when I try to play a song. Click "Show Spoiler" below to see the crash report.
You can probably see all this in the log, but I'm using an 11-inch, 2012 Macbook Air with an i7 processor, and Intel HD 4000 graphics. The crash report was generated was generated while I was using the default theme, although the problem appears to happen regardless.

Something went wrong when Stepmania tried to load Data/AI.ini to set the AI skill level. Check whether that file exists and can be read.

Should have mentioned this in the original post, but I already checked that. The file does indeed exist and I can open it fine in TextEdit. Doesn't seem to have any abnormal permissions either.
Fullscreen on OS X was broken when we moved the Xcode project from 10.6 SDK to the 10.9 SDK (this commit). Upgrading the SDK allowed us to continue to build SM5 for OS X at all (a good thing!) but fullscreen support was lost along the way. From what I gather, SM's fullscreen code was a custom job, written before OS X natively supported fullscreen apps (like, OS X 10.3), and utilized API calls that no longer exist.
Generally speaking, the OS X-specific code is woefully under-maintained and out-of-date. If you know Objective-C, pull requests are very, very welcome. Alternatively, help move window-management code to SDL if you know that.
I'm not sure what to say about ./Data/AI.ini
I downloaded a clean copy of beta4a just now, started up with default theme, and played a couple songs (one myself, one on Autoplay, one on AutoplayCPU) and didn't crash. Where do you have your StepMania-v5.0-beta-4a directory installed to?
Judging by your error report in the other thread, I'm going to assume you installed to /Applications/ . Can you try installing within your home directory?

Thanks, that pushed me in the direction of figuring out how to solve the problem: I had Stepmania.app in the Applications folder and everything else in ~/Library/Application Support/Stepmania. Moving everything into the same folder fixed the problem.
For some reason, I'd actually thought my previous method was how it was supposed to be done. Not sure why, although it always worked pre-Yosemite.

For what it's worth, I am completely unable to replicate this problem! >_>
