WanderingAries Posted March 11, 2021 Share Posted March 11, 2021 I duplicated your error by attempting to run the "Cityofheroes.exe" file directly from inside the Applications/coh/hc_bin64 folder when testing in my Big Sur Intel-VM. I got your Other errors (the terminal screens) when I didn't allow Xquartz to install or ran the game before allowing it to install.

WanderingAries Posted March 11, 2021 Share Posted March 11, 2021 (edited) I have now confirmed that IR will trigger Rosetta 2 to be installed (or you get an error if you decline) and it will also install Xquartz (just prior to the game files) as it does not come on Big Sur. The only new folder I've identified is the hidden //USERNAME/.privatewine and no hints of Homebrew like Manga said. I actually didn't get the one permission that I did the first go 'round when I was using my existing user with Rosetta already installed. The same permission triggered by the HC launcher as well. Correction: The last permission does seem to trigger when launching the game the first time as expected.

WanderingAries Posted March 11, 2021 Share Posted March 11, 2021 ***Please make sure you're clipping/covering anything that can identify "You" in the uploaded content to preserve your privacy How about this since it's too easy to reveal personal info via video Send a screenshot of the apps folder and the utility folder inside that. The purpose being to see if there's something installed that may be messing with the handling of the app itself. Consider the following the "Cleanup Method" I've established until someone more knowledgable corrects me *coughs*@Manga*coughs* Open "System Preferences"->"Security & Privacy"->"Privacy" Tab Accessibility: highlight and remove (the "-" below the list) the "Island Rum.app" entry Files & Folders: highlight and remove (the "-" below the list) the "Island Rum.app" entry Delete the hidden //SSD_NAME/Users/USERNAME/.privatewine folder Delete the Applications/Island Rum.app Delete the Applications/coh folder Delete the Applications/Utilities/Xquartz.app Restart the Mac Disable/Pause any extra layers of security and any app running that doesn't need to be Follow the new guide setup by step making sure to give the Mac extra time to complete step (just in case something takes longer to trigger) As you follow it, confirm it matched up or notate Anything you can see on the screen (comment + Screenshot works) including the Dock as things will show down there too. I've noticed the permissions are "fuzzy" in their trigger points if you go too quickly (or some other condition I can't identify), but they should all trigger based on my last test.

WanderingAries Posted March 11, 2021 Share Posted March 11, 2021 Ok, in the guide I've pointed out that you should (not sure why, but we'll go with it for now) quit those three apps at the bottom and restart IR. Clicking Play should trigger the "removable media" permission and the game "should" launch (tiny window the first time).

WanderingAries Posted March 11, 2021 Share Posted March 11, 2021 It's entirely possible that this permission will eventually trigger, but it seems to match with what's required for the HC Launcher as well on the M1.

WanderingAries Posted March 11, 2021 Share Posted March 11, 2021 Sorry, I realized you were sending at the same time, so I paused replying. 😛 So you've Done the cleanup Started the reinstall Tried launching game Is it still failing during the install or was that when you launched the game? Check that the two permissions above are actually there (you can't manually add the second one BTW).

Game Master GM Manga Posted March 12, 2021 Game Master Share Posted March 12, 2021 Any of you having trouble with an M1 Mac and Island Rum, try using the Mac Launcher Installer: https://islandrum.eekstudio.com/mac-installer.zip The installer cleans up before install so that it can do its own clean install. It also attempts to fix permissions issues. The only thing it doesn't do is it's not signed, so you might have to go to the Security panel and approve it for opening. Since Homecoming is going to eventually gently herd everyone away from the legacy patchers, it makes more sense to improve and support the Launcher Installer.

I emptied the trash bin where the other CoH stuff had been Now we are here Much better I don't know what path to write in If I try to select, I am given a very odd halfway unreadable option.

Heh, the only reason we toyed around here was because they wanted to get IR working, so we did this anyway, knowing that the HC was there. Yeah, this is in the wrong forum grouping, but I left that alone unless someone wanted to move it.
