Island Rum and M1 Chip, MacBook Pro, Big Sur, HELP

[Voltak]

WonderingAries

you suggested a make a new thread on this 

Here it is 

Thanks for your help 

[WanderingAries]

NP, I'm still going through my screenshot list, but may just make a new grouping. Either way, delete the existing files and restart the Mac.

[WanderingAries]

Hmm, it's being troublesome and the old guides are Old and not intended for M1.

[WanderingAries]

Ok, I've got it I believe now...and I may as well write up a guide, but it boils down to this (same as the HC Launcher), you need to set the permissions ahead of time (before hitting play) or it Will hang. Note: I'm not 100% sure I've got it "clean" installed though, so I'll have to ask @Mangaabout what should be deleted for that process.

Not pretty version:

 

Use this as a template with the following modifications

1. Go here
   • https://islandrum.eekstudio.com/
2. Click the one that says "Catalina/Big Sur" (top/middle)
   • islandrum-catalina.zip
3. Unzip the file and drag into the Applications folder
4. Open Island Rum
5. Tell it it's ok to open the app
6. Click the Install button in Island Rum
7. Wait for the game to download and install
8.  Click the play button
9. Follow the on-screen prompts to manually add Island Rum to the Security&Privacy->Accessibility list
10. Close the System Preferences window
11. (Force) Close all of the Win Preloader apps (IR + the 2 terminal apps showing on the bottom of the screen)
12. Tell the permission Ok
13. Open Island Rum Again
14. Click the play button
15. You should see the mini window in the corner now
16. Use the "Command+Enter" toggle to make the window fullscreen
    • It WILL remember this and do it normal next time

Considering buying a 16GB M1 mini.  This is the only game I play.  It's pretty slow on my 2012 retina.  How's the experience on an M1?  Might just skip getting another Windows box if the M1 will at least work with ultra mode and load zones decently fast.

I haven't thoroughly tested gameplay, but the 8gb handles Ultra very well roaming around atlas. I would focus on whether the apps you need otherwise will have workable versions first.

My MacBook Pro 13 inch 2020 is an upgrade to the Mini 

I can play way more demanding games , like Divinity Original Sin 2 and it runs wonderful 

It would be interesting to know how the mini handles that, but somehow I don't believe there would be a problem 

It's great if the mini can handle that too

Y'all are making me wish they had the 16" M series already!! (and I had the $$ for it)

Where exactly did it get the issue?

[Voltak]

The same 

It's hanging at the same spot I told you last time 

[WanderingAries]

So, you're getting this right after dragging and launching Island Rum inside of the Applications folder??

[Voltak]

exactly that

 

[WanderingAries]

And we've definitely installed rosetta I assume...

[Voltak]

Rosetta is already running on the M1 MacBook Pro 

 

[WanderingAries]

You've not messed with permissions yet either right?

[Voltak]

Right, not yet. , not asked to do so

You know, it never asked me to install Rosetta 2 at all 

What do you think now ?

[WanderingAries]

Oh no, that's in my "do this before starting" section 😛

 

 

Notes:

• Rosetta 2 will need to be installed if not already, Type the following into the Terminal and Press the "Enter" key to install it manually

  • softwareupdate --install-rosetta

[WanderingAries]

I've been building while you've been clicking. Keep replying in here though until we figure it out.

 

 

[Voltak]

Ok, now I will give this another shot for sure

 

[Voltak]

Rosetta is installed 

Now look 

 

[WanderingAries]

So, progress or...?

 

You saw the new Guide in progress above right?
