Whiskas: I sent an email with player.log, I hope it helps.

miketsukamibo: Thank you for the log! It looks like the same issue, so I wonder if something changed on MacOS.

We pushed a new AD release yesterday, so if you could try the new version, that would be great. If it still ends up as a white screen, please send the log for that session.

Also, if you're launching the game from a shortcut in the Dock, could you try launching it from the installation folder instead or vice versa?
Thank you for such a quick reaction and trying to help at all - it's by far my best experience with game support!

Yep, Apple is "famous" with ruining working games with OS update, I guess last year it was MacOS 12, and with 13 there is some change that was critical for this game. Oddly enough, almost every other game I own on gog works just fine - either they all are updated for 13, or there is something special with AD because of unity or something.

I tried to install new update, ran it from folder, from dock, tried to change resolution on start (holding option button while launching) - always the same, white screen. I emailed new logs, hope it'll help.

Also I have an idea - maybe there is some config file or something that is not overwritten by new install? Like maybe I need uninstall the game (so just drag the game to trash bin on Mac) but then also delete some files manually? I hope I'm making sense, I deleted some other game launcher recently, and there was a lot of files left that I needed to remove manually.

Is there any update on the issue? I can imagine something bigger must be fixed to prevent new macos releases from breaking the game in the future?

Yup, the team's investigating if a permanent fix is possible. We don't officially support Apple Silicon (M1, M2 Macs), so it could take a while. Sorry about this!

Earlier we published a possible fix to the beta branch (available through GOG Galaxy). For next week I'll see if we could also make an offline installer available alongside the current version, but I'm letting you know now in case you want to try it immediately.

Thank you so much for this information, I'm not using gog galaxy (or any other launcher) so I'll just wait for offline installer. And thanks again for trying to fix that issue despite not supporting newer mac processors. It must be such a pain for you to support a game that worked totally fine, but then stopped due to random change in OS.

Is there any update on that offline installer? Is it by any chance possible to download it somewhere else for testing? I can provide screen of my gog library to prove that I own AD : )

Just tried it, it's the same, white screen after launch. You know, I'll just give up.
Thank you for trying so hard to fix it but I guess that doesn't make any sense anymore.

Could you send the error log, please?

miketsukamibo: Thank you!
Just wow, when I lost any hope, last offline installer made the trick and it runs just fine now!

Thank you so much for all the extra effort, despite not officially supporting apple silicon!

Time to finally learn how to drift properly :D
