Indeed I do, thanks for the correction

It should, yes.

This is more of a heads up to users who are deliberately using OpenGL; if you're not sure what this thread means, then you're almost certainly not impacted by it.

It will ... if you have supported video hardware, which is to say AMD. I already have one case where the game will no longer run on Intel video hardware on a MacBook Pro.

Apple Silicon is strictly speaking not supported hardware either, but does run Vulkan just fine (via Rosetta) so should still work.

That, or use a service such as GeForce Now, are the only options I can think of for you.

Not that I'm aware of, sorry. But I'm not in the development loop for thia game.  

PC Update 1.11.3

Hello everybody! We've got one more update before the holidays releasing today. It's a small one reenabling the OpenGL renderer for MacOS users. Please note that this renderer is still unsupported, we're just restoring the option to use it... forum.paradoxplaza.com
