Troubleshooting and FAQ

Which version of MacOS is supported ? / Can I play with Ventura ?

No it's not required, but Apple recommand to use the latest version of MacOS (Sonoma), in order to get the latest development tools. However the Command Line Tools for XCode 15 Beta is required to use Game Porting Toolkit source

How to hide the game-porting-toolkit HUD ?

Just use the `gameportingtoolkit-no-hud` binary instead of `gameportingtoolkit` binary.

Do I need a Apple Developer Account to use Game Porting Toolkit

No, but you might need an Apple Developer Account (free) if you choose to download Game Porting Toolkit from the website.
