Continued disconnection/crash issues on initial town load on 3.25 (on a Mac M1 Max Mac Studio)

Hello there!

I am playing POE on an:
Mac Studio 2022
M1 Max chip
Sonoma 14.6.1

And it is now ALMOST unplayable sadly since whatever the last major patch was. I had no issues OTHER than loading into Delve for a Vaal area in 3.24, but in 3.25 I cannot finishing logging in without a disconnection or crash literally 19 out of 20 times. I just tried logging in around 20 times in a row and fully loaded to town (a7) only once.

I have no issues with my internet connection or local OS. Completely standard setup on an unmodified Mac. I also deleted and reinstalled the 40GB package for POE from Steam and still have the same issues.

On launch on POE, I get one of two issues:
1) The textures seem to load strangely (visible on the character row after you click Login, and before getting to town)-- after which the town load looks pixelatted and kicks me out. This is the disconnection error. After this error I can't login at all and must exit the game completely and try again.

2) Even after loading POE, even if the textures for the character seems to load correctly, often I will get an immediate crash upon trying to load the town-- this completely exits POE, and causes the Apple OS to offer to send a crash report to Apple (which I have done several times now)

Thanks for making my favorite game of all time, but as it stands I sadly can't play it. Maybe it is a better idea to drop Mac support completely (particularly for Apple silicon) and just make users run Windows if the client support will continue to be like this? This issue has affected me for weeks and I can barely play from Mac

I have screenshots of both cases, but the issue #1 case is more interesting I'd say (since you won't receive crash reports from it presumably since it doesn't appear as a full crash).

Thanks for any insight.

So for the #1 case, I can also cause this to crash by doing the following.

Get the fuzzy looking textures. Click Create a new character. Then choose one of the fuzzy partially loaded characters (for example a new Templar).

This immediately causes the following crash

Multi-thread is disabled since the league start, at this point we could assume the Mac client isn’t in any type of priority; the best solution I’ve found is using portingkit, isn’t locked in 60fps, multi-thread and all other options available.

I use an MBP M3 Pro 18gb and get 60~120fps playing with CoC Ice Nova

Thanks Suzim.

I don't want to use software that isn't open source to run an emulation layer to play the game that isn't released by Apple if I am going to run it on a Mac (i.e. Rosetta)

I would settle for low FPS and just not having POE crash literally 20 times in a row when trying to load to town.

GGG-- this has been reported MANY times by different Mac users. Is the official answer for now to just use Crossover/Wine/portingkit and figure it out ourselves? Thank you

Any comments on this GGG?

I can confirm I still get around 10-20 crashes in a row trying to login on the official Mac client (on a Mac Studio Apple M1 Max, MacOS Sonoma 14.6.1) even today. It doesn't appear to make a difference if I try to login immediately as a character or wait on the character loading screen (assuming I get a normal texture load, like my last messages).

Once in a very long while, character load appears to occur normally and then I can play without issue (other than shader lag, presumably in part due to what Suzim mentions about this being forced to a singlethreading model for now on Mac...)

Thanks!
