1.76 [SOLVED] ARMA 3 CRASHES ON STARTUP MAC OSX

[waz21 10]

Hi,

 

I'm running on a MAC OSX 10.10.5 Yosemite

 

I installed the legacy port 1.76 from here: https://community.bistudio.com/wiki/Arma_3_Experimental_Ports

 

Enter access code: Arma3LegacyPorts. This should unlock the legacyports - Legacy Build (1.76 - ports).

 

When I launch in Steam, It doesn't even make it to the splash screen I just get a crash reporter.

I have ran this game before on the same machine which was a while back this year, yet now it's unplayable.

 

Any help would be appreciated.

Why are you using the Legacy Ports branch?

 

Just use the main branch.

Hi GBee2, Thanks for replying to the thread.

I have tried the main branch but it doesn't launch. It's even worse because it doesn't even successfully produce a crash report.

Hmm, Looks like Yosemite is too old to be supported. The port requires Metal support, which is only available with El Capitan and later, and only with recent enough hardware.

Game now works on latest OS Sierra.

Thanks!
