GTA V is installed but isn't starting up on Mac M1 Pro

I have imported GTA V from my Windows PC (via USB) and it is showing correctly in Heroic. Now I have setup CrossOver on my M1 Pro and created a new Bottle called "Heroic" on Win 7 64 Bit and installed the Rockstar Games Launcher into the Bottle. I have also set the Heroic Bottle in Heroic Games Launcher, but the game will not start. The Play button gets gray, but gets green again after a couple of seconds. Can somebody help me out? Log File:

@alec.no1 you are using an old version of heroic, update to latest release. Also, on github we have a pkg for M1 Try it and let me know if it worked

That's a long time, probably your bottle or prefix stopped working. Work some update on gtav broke it on Mac can you try running tihs command after installing the arm64 version? sudo xattr -r -d com.apple.quarantine "/Applications/Heroic.app" if it works I will add the instructions on the website
quickest-silver
quickest-silver3y ago
sure it asked me for my password and then : xattr: No such file: /Applications/Heroic.app sudo xattr -r -d com.apple.quarantine /Applications/Heroic.app
grumpy-cyan
grumpy-cyan3y ago
so you might have installed heroic on another place replace the path with where heroic is installed

quickest-silver3y ago

run this on terminal mdfind kMDItemCFBundleIdentifier = "heroic" actually mdfind kMDItemCFBundleIdentifier = "heroic" damn put * between the heroic name because when I do this here on discord it changes the text formating
quickest-silver
quickest-silver3y ago
* instead of " ?
grumpy-cyan
grumpy-cyan3y ago

quickest-silver
quickest-silver3y ago
yeah alr
grumpy-cyan
grumpy-cyan3y ago
for me it shows something like:
❯ mdfind kMDItemCFBundleIdentifier = "*heroic"
/Applications/Heroic.appª
❯ mdfind kMDItemCFBundleIdentifier = "*heroic"
/Applications/Heroic.appª
quickest-silver
quickest-silver3y ago

grumpy-cyan
grumpy-cyan3y ago
sudo xattr -r -d com.apple.quarantine | mdfind kMDItemCFBundleIdentifier = "*heroic" this now so it will run the command on all heroic apps it can find you need to have spotlight enabled, otherwise it wont work
quickest-silver
quickest-silver3y ago

“Heroic” is damaged and can’t be opened. You should move it to the Bin. is what it says
grumpy-cyan
grumpy-cyan3y ago
ok, no problem anyway, about GTA I have no way of testing, lets see of someone else can help, but maybe try creating another bottle and enable DXVK on it
