Until a recent find, the game has not supported modding on MacOS. This post(https://itch.io/t/628179/how-to-make-mods-work-on-mac-osx-without-wine) details a new method found for enabling mods on MacOS. He even wrote a guide for Aric's mod. If it works, please let us know.

@ankmairdor I followed this guide, and i indeed got the male & female portraits working but when checking the "talk" selection i still have the default 3 options, as well as checking the customization on new game after enabling the Aric mod along with portraits tho im very unexperienced with enabling modes other than hitting apply and opening the game, I'm unaware if something i did not do didn't register or what tho. I may just have to attempt tomorrow on my desktop. any further insight would be appreciated, tho you did already provide tons of assistance.
:D
There were reports of the daily log not appearing, mainly there was an incompatibility with save files from prior versions of the game. https://itch.io/t/542925/bug You'll probably want to edit the save file to fix the problem as my bugfix on Discord is not compatible with Arics Mod. There are some significant differences between 0.5.24 and 0.5.25, so I would not expect Arics Mod to work on it.
As a side note, I am curious if MacOS boots the game with 2 windows: the game and a terminal for error messages.
Gotcha, well i did have the 0.5.25 for all the modding attempts i was doing, seeing it not function i have switched over to .24 as of right now, will attempt running it on my pc tomorrow with the edits after i've completed them. i'll try looking into that fix for log if i can get the mod to work. onto your side note, it does not boot with multiple windows, the terminal is able to be opened in the file(i think, i actually have no clue how to use those) but the game .app is the only thing that boots up on Mac
