03FAQ

Does GridCraft run natively on Apple Silicon M1, M2, M3, and M4 Macs without Rosetta?

Yes. GridCraft ships as a Universal macOS binary containing native ARM64 machine code and Apple Metal wgpu shaders alongside x86_64 support for Intel Macs.

How do I bypass the macOS Gatekeeper warning on community open-source builds?

Right-click the app in /Applications and choose Open, or run xattr -cr /Applications/ArteCraft.app once in macOS Terminal.
