nope just the normal minecraft launcher

Might be a potential M2 mac issue, but will have to investigate further

commented

also happens with me (I have a M1 Mac)

commented

happens for me as well! My mac is an m2

commented

The same thing is happening to me, but im on windows ten, not sure whats going on there.

commented

Yeah it's a very strange bug, I'm not really sure what is going on here. This may not be necessarily mac related anymore, but it seems to be related to #3? Will be investigating further

commented

Yeah but i am using a hackintoshed pc so mine is a intel gpu, and yes its crashing.

Edit: Also you can hackintosh a pc laying down if you want so you dont have to give your kidney. Or you can use a Virtual Machine.

Looks like Macs only support OpenGL 4.1: Apple M2 GL version 4.1 Metal - 88.1, Apple. The game crashes here though without this being obvious due to a bug in the mod, but in newer versions it'll be more obvious that OpenGL is out of date and that Simple Clouds cannot launch.

I don't think I will be able to get Macs to work since the mod needs compute shaders which are at least OpenGL 4.2+ (4.2 with extensions), so Macs will unfortunately be incompatible with Simple Clouds (at least those with M1 and M2 chips which are known to be incompatible)

it's cloudover

Could I run Asahi LINUX on an M series mac (since that allows opengl 4.6 compatibility) to get the mod to work.
PS: I am currently using an intel mac and it doesn't work.

commented

Possibly though I do not know

This seems to just be an issue with macOS in general. Tested on a 2019 Mac Pro (Intel CPU) and issue also occurs.
