Can confirm that SC Remastered is working on MacOS 12.0 Beta (Monterey).

This worked for me on an M1 Air playing Starcraft 2 at least.
See if it works anyone?

changing your Mac’s name in system preferences/sharing

63

Would you please explain how to install MacOS 12.0 Beta (Monterey) in a secure manner?

64

I have installed Mac OS 12.0 (Monterey) developer beta 1 on my M1 mac mini, and magically SC Remastered began to work. I have been playing games for about 2 weeks on M1 Mac Mini without any problem. Today, I see the update notice from Apple to update to Monterey developer beta 2. I am not sure if it will still work with developer beta 2. If anyone has updated to Monterey beta 2, please share the result.

I will wait for Public Beta to arrive in the next couple of weeks and set up another instance on my MacBook Air to specifically test SC Remastered

Сегодня поставил “macOS 12 monterey public beta”, послу установил SCR, игра не запускалась, НО после удаления игры и новой установки, всё стало работать отлично!

У меня MacBook Air M1

I’ve bought my M1 (Air, 8GB RAM) two weeks ago and just bought both Starcraft Remastered and Starcraft 2 today.

Big Sur 11.4:
Starcraft Remastered didn’t worked.
Starcraft 2 worked right away, high video settings. I’m not sure about fps but seems perfect, if not 60fps, might be close.

Monterey Beta 12.0:
Starcraft Remastered works just fine.
Starcraft 2 still works.

For those who even with Monterey can’t run the game, here’s what I did:

  1. Change your computer’s name (delete all spaces)
  2. Download beta 3 from MacOS Monterey (it’s a very stable version and free)
  3. Purchase the game. I don’t know if this had something to do, but previously I did not want to buy the game unless It ran on my computer.
  4. Select Public Test Realm in the game version.

As I said before, I don’t know if these steps must be all done. Maybe you can try only one of them. I’ve got a MacBook Air M1 (8 core / 512GB).

Where did you get the Beta?

71

Just enlist your computer in the beta program, it’s very easy and fast, just be sure to keep a backup of your files just in case. Can’t post the link but you can Google it as official MacOS Monterey beta, then look for the Apple website.

I can’t wait for an update from Blizzard. I need my StarCraft fix!!!

73

´did it work for you?

74

Hey Blizzard, why SC Remastered still doesn’t working on my MacBook Air M1?

Just switched to an M1 MacBook and re-downloaded Starcraft Remastered and ran into this quitting issue… I’ve also tried running the beta (aka “Public Test Realm”) v1.23.8.9571-ptr and it has the same quit on launch issue… Has Blizzard given any estimates on when this will be fixed?

I can run SC Remastered on macbook air with M1 through Wine (PlayOnMac app). I install battle.net through playonmac (need download installer exe manually from battlnet site), then o install battlenet on another Windows PC and download Startcraft. Then i copy Startcraft folder from Win PC to Mac on virtual drive on Wine (playonmac) and pick game in Battlnenet configuration. This need because Battle.net gui (window) not working through Wine. Sorry for my english.
