@andreyu we've just released a new Spine launcher, version 4.1.13. Please download the installer from your license page and install it. It will not require you to install Rosetta. Thank you for reporting!

Mario thanks for the help, but unfortunately the installer still requires rosetta.

Mario here is screenshot. File size of Spine-ARM.dmg is 102 528 484 bytes. Trying Germany and United States mirrors.

We've fixed the issue with the 4.1.13 launcher release, so it should now be available.

Thank you. Now the installation works fine, but the Spine Editor crashes after selecting the Spine runtime v3.8.
It appears that only the latest Spine runtime supports Apple Silicon.

From Mario above:

Mario [With the latest Spine launcher,] Spine Editor versions >= 4.0 will not require Rosetta. However, if you run Spine Editor versions < 4.0, Rosetta is still required.

Crashing isn't very friendly though, we'll see about making that nicer.

Hi just purchased Spine ESS. And I get this error in the Spine.pkg installer:

I had installed SpineTrial before with no issue at all.

My setup is: Apple M1 macOS Venture

Hey, ignore my previous post!

I see I was selecting Spine as the location to install Spine

Anyway, the question is that after I install Spine in the right location (Macintosh HD), it doesn't install it at all. I can't find it in the /Applications folder or the Launchpad.

I'm missing something?

Btw, I confirm I downloaded the Spine-ARM.dmg file.

I tried to install it from terminal:

arian@Arians-MacBook-Pro Spine % sudo installer -pkg Spine.pkg -verbose -target /
installer: Package name is Spine
installer: Upgrading at base path /
installer: Preparing for installation….....
installer: Preparing the disk….....

It says it installed it successfully but I just can't find the app

Hi @Misaki! Thanks for the response. But no, it is not working that way. There isn't any Spine.app in the /Applications folder. This is very strange. I have only 1 year of experience with macOS, but this is the first time I have had an issue with the installation of an app. I don't know if Spine ESS has a particular requirement different from the SpineTrial app. Maybe I should change a setting in macOS about the installation of background services or something like that.

Look this command:

arian@Arians-MacBook-Pro ~ % pkgutil --pkgs | grep Spine
com.esotericsoftware.spine.Spine

It says the Spine package is installed... but where?

I don't know if Spine ESS has a particular requirement different from the SpineTrial app.

There should be nothing special because of ESS. We would like to support you in any way we can, but we have never heard of this situation and are not sure what advice we can give you. If you don't mind, we might find some clues if you could take a video of the sequence of steps from downloading the installer and completing the installation, then share it with us via email: contact@esotericsoftware.com

I wrote this command for testing pkg health:

pkgutil --payload-files Spine.pkg

And it prints a couple of files, but at the end it shows this error:

Could not list files: The operation couldn’t be completed. cpio read error: bad file format

So there is. A corrupted file! Sorry guys! I downloaded the installation again and it works

Thanks @Misaki for the support!

arianfornaris I’m glad to hear you've figured it out! Thank you for getting back to us
