Mac version of the game stuck on verification

[YuaBeVibin]

The verification process seems to be extremely slow for me, running to what seems to be a halt after a certain amount of time. I'm running this on an M1 MacBook Air with 8GB RAM from an external SSD. anyone know what todo?

Where have you gotten a Mac version?
Here on Steam there is only the Windows version.

Are you able to find a way to install Automation on an internal hard drive? I suspect that like on PCs, load times are pretty brutal if the game is installed on an external drive.

We don't advertise it, but the native MacOS version of Automation is publicly accessible. The reason we don't advertise it is there is no mod support for MacOS just yet, and a couple of shader-related issues as well. We had to enable it because of the peculiarities of how Steam handles operating system information; we can't test the MacOS version without having it fully enabled for everyone.

I could install it to the internal drive but storage is really, really rough

Hello!
In order not to multiply similar posts,
I was wondering is there any possible solutions for shader issues rn? Like specific settings. I know that mac support is not official, but it is sad not being able to play the game (it runs fine but the car body is flickering after adding fixtures). The hardware is M1

I've got the same laptop, so it also takes quite a while (maybe 2-3 minutes) to verify the app. Try to install the game on internal drive.

Go into your Graphics settings and set your Shadows setting to Low or Off.

It worked! Thanks a lot!
