Just wanted to confirm that this is still an issue, but Blizzard are seemingly aware of it. There’s a good topic about this on the US SC:RM Technical Support forum here:

Application crashes immediately at startup.

I have followed a few suggestions I found on these forums and elsewhere to get this to work.

  • I tried renaming my Mac to a simple single word with no special characters - no effect, still crashing on startup.
  • I lowered my screen resolution, no effect.
  • I attempted to disable vsync following instructions online, however it seems like the instructions were written for Starcraft 2 and don’t apply to Starcraft Remastered, and so I was unable to perform the “fix”.

Hoping that Blizzard notices this and gets it fixed - it’s the only application I have that doesn’t run flawlessly on the M1.

For Blizzard devs, I’ve included the stack trace for the crash below. I hope that this is helpful.

Hey Blizzard - even CDProjekt patched Cyberpunk, so why don’t you repair Starcraft?

Hi Blizzard!
It would be great if you could share a status on this. Its been 4 months now since the release of the M1 and still nothing on this. We can’t play neither the original Starcraft nor the remastered.

They fixed only WoW, because it gives money - here they need spend money and time to fix SR it’s not calculate. Pitty is different thing - why nobody from Blizzard say anything straight to us - for example ‘this patch not gonna happen’, or ‘give us another year’. M1 and successors are future of Mac but it seams that Blizzard don’t.

Just piling on; Starcraft still doesn’t work on MacOS M1 laptops.
Can you please recompile a build for Mac M1 chips?
