New update and apple

Hello everyone, I have an issue with swotr on Mac. I've been playing for many years and recently switched to a MacBook M2. The game used to work fine, but after recent updates its no longer lunches or gets stuck on a black screen. I currently have an active sub.  and I am trying to understand whether this issue is being addressed or if swotr is currently unsupported on newer Macs. Any information would be appreciated, as I am not sure whether I should keep my subscription . Thank you for any replies.

    Update for today is that we have a fix! We're working on automating this for all Mac players, but for now, you can get your client working again by deleting the file:

    • /Users/<your username>/Library/Application Support/com.broadsword.swtor/Star Wars - The Old Republic/swtor-precompiled/Libraries/Wine/user.reg
      • Don't forget to replace <your username> with the username on your device.

    After deleting, you will need to start up your client. To find the file, you can do one of the following:

    • Use Shift+Command+Period to show hidden files/directories to access the user's Library directory
    • Use Shift+Command+G to get a popup box to manually type in the directory path

    To reiterate, we are working to get this process automated so we are continuing our investigation. I’ll update this thread as I get more info. We appreciate your patience as we navigate through the Mac Launcher Open Beta.
