Hi everyone! Aspyr just released a patch today for Sim 2 Super Collection. Not sure if it addresses the M1 chip issue, but I did want to let you all know.
@Goth1cPanda90 , I do not have a solution at this time. I am on a Mac personally, but mine is an Intel chip one and is a Desktop model.
I had asked the other person to make a separate post because their issue was with Sims 2 Ultimate Collection which was only available for Windows OS to keep the issues separate as this thread is mainly about Sims 2 Super Collection from Aspyr and the Apple App Store.
Same here...
Macbook Air 2020
Apple M1 chip
macOS Big Sur 11.1

Edit: found this on Reddit, and it actually works for me.
Even though you already have Rosetta 2 installed, go to Terminal, then type in softwareupdate --install-rosetta.
Magic! It doesn't crash anymore.
Enjoy the game people!
@marionclz83 , do you type the commands exactly as you posted or is there another format? Just need to know in case anyone asks.
I tried typing that into Terminal, and it did successfully process the installation, but the game crashed the same as before ☹️
@Tremayne4260 I typed it in exactly as I posted it, but don't forget to confirm the installation (they are going to ask you to write A and press enter, or something like that). Just make sure it's been successfully installed before you start playing, it should say so !
@amitchell326 Very sorry this isn't working for you still - have you tried lowering the graphics to low or normal as well? I have read for some people they had to write that command in the terminal + lower the settings or else it would still crash. Give it a go and let me know !
For everyone else, I managed to successfully play for hours last night when the day before I couldn't even play 1 second after I clicked on "play", so you should definitely try and see if it works for you !
@marionclz83 Yes, all my graphics settings are at their lowest options ☹️ didn’t make any difference for me.
