New player here on m1, getting the client ‘closed unexpectedly’ error every time I try to launch the game… Looks like the wait continues till the devs figure this one out… ---

@CCP_Caffeine Could we please have you all kindly update the wine versions in the preference section of the launcher to include the 6._._ versions. From reading WineHQs site the 6.0.1 adds M1 support. ---

So i got EVE to work on my M1 laptop again with the 4.17 wine… I had to go into to Application Support and delete the EVE folder. Launched the launcher and let it start downloading the game. changed the wine version to 4.17 . . . and it booted up. I had it on window mode and had to use the apple full screen button, but once it was full screen i had visuals. ---

I still cant get mine working enough to where it doesn’t randomly kernel panic and crash. Happens every 20 min or so on Wine. Is there any indication on when we might expect the native version to be released? I haven’t been keeping up on it- has there been any other news since the playtest? ---

> [@EVE Online to go native on macOS!](https://forums.eveonline.com/t/eve-online-to-go-native-on-macos/283578/239): > > Hi all slight_smile We don’t have any announcement for a release date currently. We’re still working through our known defects and bringing the macOS client to be on parity with the Windows client. I know loads of you used the client and had great results, but unfortunately, there is no way to make that available on TQ. It uses a separate branch (which is why we used a dedicated deployment for Sisi) from the main EVE codebase. There were many core features missing or disabled, even though it… It is still always off. I don’t remember having any kernel panics, but I do know I was using a Alpha to help move stuff while I mined. Well over 20 minutes. As I said, I deleted the whole EVE folder under (hold option) click the go button in the menu bar \> library \> application support \> trash EVE Online. Install I do suggest marking back ups of your overviews though. ![Screen Shot 2021-06-30 at 7.02.50 AM](https://global.discourse-cdn.com/eveonline/original/4X/a/f/5/af55aea005f4b64319ca5abcd4085744c97d089f.png) ---

I have the same issue, I was running it as described before but now I can not start the game in any way on my M1 Mac. Nothing change if I use the 208 wine option as before or if I use a vanilla installation. Don’t know what to do or how to fix it. Can someone help? ---

The only way that I can get it to work is if I use CrossOver. It costs about 30 dollars to buy, which was annoying. That being said, the performance on my Mac Mini with two clients running using CrossOver is pretty spectacular and I am excited to see how well the native Mac client will perform. ---
