Can you send me your logs again?

So, that's essentially how the Mac versions are, they are being wrapped using wineskin which is the same thing that Porting Kit seems to do. If you click into the Mac version of UWUVCI enough, you'll see that it's running a ".exe" file. Being on Apple Silicon isn't the problem it's macOS 26 that's the problem. I only have one mac that can get to 26 (it's an M2) so it's challenging to figure out what worked and didn't work when I'm testing on the same machine that built it. But, if you'd like to assist in helping me figure out what's the issue with the Modern app on macOS 26, if you right click the app itself and click "show package contents" or something like that then click into the "Contents" directory, and into the "Logs" directory. If you could email those to ZestyTS@gmail.com that would be greatly appreciated.
Hmmm, I don't know because those are only based on last start up, so email both of them to ZestyTS@gmail.com. In addition, in UWUVCI, click the gear icon at the top right, then the button "AppSettings" and then the "Open Log Folder." Send all of those files to me as well so I can see what you're running into.
Well, you're the first mac user to have a problem with the Modern version. Can you do me two things, one tell me what OS version you're on, and two give me a log file. If you right click the app itself and click "show package contents" or something like that then click into the "Contents" directory, and into the "Logs" directory. There should be a file there, can you paste it into this so I can check it out.
Okay, I figured out the problem, and it kind of sucks, macOS 26 is the issue. I built the mac version on a custom "Kegworks" wrapper/app with custom code. The problem is that because of how macOS 26 changed their pipeline making it so I need to abandon the "Kegworks" version of this program and have to start over. What also sucks is that the changes I need to do make it so it will only be backwards compatible up until macOS Catalina, whereas the old one was able to go back to at least High Sierra (I didn't find one older then that). What this means is I'll end up dropping support for about 10 years of Macs. I'll most likely keep updating the Kegworks one since it's already done to keep support for older macs, and build a new thing for the newer macs. I started investigating how to make a new one, but I don't have a timeline for when I'll get this completed, probably some time this month. Thanks for working with me on this. I only just upgraded my mac mini to Tahoe, so that's why I didn't catch this earlier since the testing for this original version was completed back in August of 2025.
Okay, so I checked the files in the dmg and I'm not able to replicate the error you're having. On your machine, can you open up a terminal, run these three commands, and tell me the output for "file wine" and "otool -L wine"
cd /Applications/UWUVCI-V3.app/Contents/SharedSupport/wine/bin
file wine
otool -L wine
What's expected are these two outputs
wine: Mach-O 64-bit executable x86_64
wine: /usr/lib/libSystem.B.dylib (compatibility version 1.0.0, current version 1351.0.0)
If you are not getting that, can you verify exactly how you installed the dmg file?
These are the exact steps that should have happened between downloading and running the program, please let me know if you had any differences
- Download dmg file
- Double-click dmg
- Drag UWUVCI-V3 to Applications folder
- Run "Fix Quarantine.command"
- Open Applications folder
- Click on "UWUVCI-V3"
I'm unsure if they have been solved or not since most people don't reply. If you haven't tried restarting, I would say do that now to make sure there isn't anything running in the background. Most people get the "app is damaged" error when they try to run it directly out of the dmg file. It sounds like you are doing everything correctly though since the steps are
1) Drag app to Applications folder
2) Run Fix-Quaratine.command
3) Run UWUVCI-V3 out of Applications folder.
It would help if I could get a log file, but I don't know where one would get stored, and I've tested this on a Mac as early as 2011 to an M2 and ran into no issues. I can see that most people on Mac aren't running into issues, so I'm wondering what makes the few of you that have posted here different. I know one person had an issue and it's because they had Android Studio installed which was somehow messing with what they had. But like I said, it's really hard for me to understand what the issue you could be having is.
That's exactly what it should say when you run the file fix. if you don't run the file fix it will tell you that the program is blocked by Apple. I don't have time at this second in time to write everything to try, but someone else asked the exact same thing, can you look over that post to see if there's anything that can help you?
Interesting, so the exe is never loaded. It's also weird that it's you and the other person who are both using M3 MacBook Air so it must be something specific to them.
My guess is that Apple must have changed what's required for Rosetta (it's what maps x86 apps to Apple silicone)
Open up the terminal and write this in
softwareupdate --install-rosetta --agree-to-license
Then try running the software, you may need to run that command file that's included.
If it still doesn't load up then try to send me the log files which could be in a few spots. Look in here first
Applications/UWUVCI-V3.app/Contents/Logs
If there's nothing here then I believe they would be in the Library path, either the one in your user directory or the one off of root aka ~/Library/Logs or /Library/Logs in those spots see if you see one for UWUVCI or one for something called Kegworks.
For any of the log files, send me the most recent one. Also, I apologize for the formatting, I am writing this from my phone since things from my most recent devlog are still ongoing.
You're the first person to have an issue with it, so I'm unsure of what the issue could be. I'm still going through things as I mentioned in my latest devlog, but let's try to see if there is a log file. If you go to the app and right click it then click "show package contents" there should a few folders, and this is where I forgot the rest of the folders. I know you want to find a prefix folder, then a drive_c folder, and then you would navigate to Users, crossover, appdata, UWUVCI-V3, Logs. If you can see if there is a file there maybe it might tell me what issue you're having exactly.
Thanks for coming around. For the 3.200 release, I wanted to make sure to fix any but that people came across, and to add every new feature/enhancement that I could think of. I still want to create a Linux version just like how there is a Mac version. I did this because I wanted people to feel like that this version would be worth it.
Two things, first one I'm not the creator, just some guy. Second thing, the donations were very few and wasn't enough to pay for the some of the things like the website and compatibility submission. I tried before asking for people to buy my game to offset costs, but that didn't happen either. The decision to make this paid is because of the lack of community support and donations. Itch.io isn't charging for the code, it's charging for an executable I made. The code is out in the open and has been, and since it took donations before it becomes open for Nintendo to come down on.
