[Spaced Out! Update] - 469473

[EricKlei]

Hi friends, 

Just a small patch today to fix a crash some OSX players are experiencing. Currently Apple Silicon/M1 is only supported through Rosetta and we accidentally included a non-functioning native build.

Fixes:

• Removed unsupported OSX arm64 binary (Apple Silicon / M1 chip)

hasuhauhsuahsu I thought the same thing, but erik seems to be responsible for system issues.

I've seen him talking a lot about linux and others

Anybody having any insight on how the M1 runs Oni in comparison to some AMD64 CPU? (Yes, I asked this before...)

I guess... no. I heard apple users dont know fun, and they dont solve problems but let them solve by apple. So i guess, they dont play Oni

Its all laugh and giggles, but I can confirm there are apple users who play ONI. They are not a majority, but they are there

I would have somehow surmised that there were ONI players that have to use apple... But I digress.

I can confirm it runs as smooth as butter, i was shocked how my MacBook Pro performs compared with my Alienware I7 laptop.

Thanks. That is good news because it confirms there is no reason to stick with AMD64 long-term. That architecture has mostly run its course with not much headroom left.

It's been a good run but it's time and the benefits outweigh the drawbacks.

At least we didn't get itanium shoved down our wallets. x86 and derivatives are nevertheless too widespread to see an overnight shift in tech, though.

On the bright side, seeing that there is dev time dedicated to possibly having native solutions for other procs makes me have a good outlook on ONI's shelf life.
