Which Vintage Story Mac download should I choose?
Choose the correct Vintage Story Mac build and check the current Apple Silicon, Intel, and macOS requirements before installing.
Choose the Mac architecture explicitly offered for your game version in the Vintage Story account manager. The official 1.22.3 release notes introduced native Apple Silicon downloads and reported Intel builds unavailable at that release. The Mac wiki now discusses Intel x64 installation and Rosetta, but still includes older claims that no native Arm64 build exists. These sources do not establish the current Intel package availability. Confirm the exact download in your account before choosing a build or a .NET runtime.

Common questions
Do I need the Intel build on an M1 Mac?
Prefer a native Apple Silicon package when the account manager lists it for your version. The wiki also has x64/Rosetta instructions; use those only for an x64 package, not an Arm64 download.
Can I install Vintage Story on an Intel Mac?
The 1.22.3 release note reported Intel Mac builds unavailable at that release, while the current wiki still documents Intel installation. Check the actual game-version downloads in your account; the public sources conflict and do not confirm current Intel package availability.
Why does macOS say Vintage Story is damaged?
Check the official Mac installation guide for your exact game version and package before changing Gatekeeper settings or running terminal commands. Older 1.22 instructions may not describe your current build.
