So I've been into this game a lot lately, and have been playing on my windows laptop. Issue is, with the new update, the RAM requirement increased and my potato of a laptop doesn't meet min specs anymore. But my mac does! Luckily I have a degree in computer science, and a lot of knowledge and passion for software development, so I've been trying my hardest to figure this out on my own.
Since I really love this game, and want to see it succeed in the West, having it be mac accessible would be fantastic. The company doesn't seem interested for a full release on mac, but an easy work around would really help the community! It would also be great for me since I'm so into this game and doubt my other laptop will run the full release very well.
I've installed crossover, and have steam through it. I've been able to download and run other games, but there's an issue with this one in particular. The game says there's an App security error and doesn't boot up, I believe this is some sort of permissions error that used to occur, and I tried to run a script (made a cmd file and tried to run it through crossover, but couldn't get it to run)
The script I used was
bcdedit -set TESTSIGNING OFF
but this was unable to run with an error, not sure if you're allowed to make/run scripts with admin privileges through crossover, but I tried my best to figure it out. I saw there was a post about how to run files, so I tried to follow that, but ended up making a cmd file with the script inside of it to run since I can't access command line from what I've seen. So I've done that amount of research so far, admittedly I've spent the whole day trying to figure this out. The game is down for another day until full release and I'm stuck at my computer anyway so I've been doing this nonstop. I know on my windows laptop, the game can currently launch but shows a screen saying they're waiting for official launch, but I don't even see that when I try through crossover.
The error is:
App sign error
Security error e0010009-00000000
14-17
I believe the issue is a firewall/security issue with the game that would sometimes occur. There have been notes on the game's site that there are also issues with vpns, so I'm not sure if something in crossovers access is flagging it and causing an issue there.
I'll link some of the posts/resources I've been looking at that feel relevant and might help. Would love to solve this!
