ALL .ts4script files show "corrupted" on Mac ARM - even after full reinstall
After patch 1.121 (Feb 3, 2026), no .ts4script file can load on Mac ARM (Apple Silicon).
Error: "Cannot start because the below file appears to be corrupted" Code: [60c399f9:29f00e76:00000000:4b0d852b]
System: MacBook Pro M3 Pro, macOS 15.5
Game version: 1.121.361.1220
Tested:
- Official S4CL v3.19 .ts4script - FAILS
- Minimal 1-command test script - FAILS
- Multiple ZIP compression methods - ALL FAIL
- Game repair - didn't fix
- Full uninstall + reinstall - didn't fix
- Deleted localthumbcache.package - didn't fix
- Deleted GameVersion.txt - didn't fix
- Feb 12 hotfix applied - didn't fix
The error code is identical for EVERY .ts4script file, confirming this is a game-level validation bug, not file corruption. Game works fine with an empty Mods folder. No script mods can be used at all on Mac ARM.
