Same issue here.
Of course today we learned Epic might be a bit fed up with Apple. Oh, well…
same problem here. Waiting for an update for I can play epic games again. I would be willing to install a beta client. Saying it’s not supported is a cheap answer. I’m sure Epic is working on a new client for the new OS that is coming out.
Well, now we know why we’re having these issues.
This is now working with the latest Big Sur update.
Now it seems to work with Beta 5 of Big Sur!
Epic Games fixed this bug in Beta 5. It’s still fixed in Beta 7
True ) They fixed it )
Big Sur 11.1
Epic Games Launcher 11.0.1
Crashes instantly on launch every time.
Note: I am using a MacBook Pro on macOS Big Sur and it has both the Intel internal GPU and a Radeon discrete GPU.
If you force the application to use the discrete GPU it works for me. I went in to the settings for the battery, clicked the Power Adapter settings on the left, UNCHECKED the automatic graphics switching option, then launched the launcher with:
open /Applications/Epic\ Games\ Launcher.app --args
and it opened and worked. While the launcher was running, I re-enabled the automatic switching setting so I wouldn’t forget. I image I may have to disable it again to launch the Unreal Editor, but I am not sure.
