MacOS: How to run the patched executable? #3

Closed MGPelaar closed 3 weeks ago

MGPelaar commented 3 weeks ago

First of all, a huge thank you for providing a solution for Mac users. Finally, I can use my MacBook on the go, to play on my server!

After I built the patched executable, I tried running it with terminal, but every time I got "zsh: killed". I tried turning off the Gatekeeper completely (allowed running programs from any source), but it didn't help.

Could you please provide a more in-depth tutorial for how to use the built executable on Mac devices?

(MacBook M2 [ARM-64]: I used the corresponding ARM version of the patcher and wow client)

I found a solution to this problem as well. After patching the executable, you need to move it inside the application (where the original executable is, then) codesign the patched exe: https://signmycode.com/resources/how-do-i-sign-files-on-mac-osx
