Can we figure something out so we can run the client on Mac using Whiskey?

[MuBM]

I know this topic is already discussed before but I'm eagerly trying to run the client on may M1 Macbook using whiskey, installed the required packages and net framework but still not working. But if I run the play.exe I get this (SS below). But no servers are appearing so I'm guessing it could be possible to run the client in mac devices as long as we have the proper resources (I'm just guessing). Any thoughts on this one?

I ran this exe files and the result are as follows

AutoUpdate.EXE - Opened and manage to update the client but upon clicking "Finish" the launcher is not opening
launcher.exe - Nothing happen
Main.exe = Nothing happen
play.exe = Opened the client but no server is appearing

FYI my device is a Macbook M1

Hey Nikki thanks for the help, unfortunately those options are not that good.

1. Parallels Desktop - This is not for free but provides free trial, this acts like a remote desktop where you cant really avoid getting a few lags
2. Boot Camp - This only supports mac with intel processors where my mac uses M1 chip
3. Wine - This third party is like whiskey same results from my tests above.


Im aware that mac's are not made for gaming but since this game uses less cpu usage compared to the latest games I believe mac devices can run this game smoothly. Whiskey is the best option for me (for now). I'm just not sure the required dependencies or if the antiguard is also blocking my connection.

Since you're using an M1 chip, many third-party applications might experience bugs or lag issues.
It's not just about the game's hardware demands; many games simply don't run on a Mac. For instance, "Microsoft Office" has two completely different software builds for Windows and macOS.
LiveGuard is a Windows-specific application and isn't designed for other platforms.

What I suggest is to uninstall the game and remove all related files. Then, try reinstalling it under the same prefix as your Whiskey environment. There is a small chance that it can work.

Hi,
1,5 week without updates.
I understand that the problem has been resolved (or he died dead in his tracks).
If there is anything else, write me a PM and we will reopen the topic.
Thanks!
