Same kind of issues on Mac mini M1 16 Ventura,
found a quick fix UnrealQFEInstaller that resolved some issues,
quick search to reference it in this post led to

Tech Note - QFE: Multiple updates for Mac fixes in UE 5.1

This article was written by Laura B

This QFE available at CL23230400 addresses multiple issues with Mac builds in UE 5.1:

• Removed Apple Silicon from default build architectures if installed from Epic Games Launcher, as it is not yet supported in UE 5.1 as a default option. Apple Silicon native build will be available in UE 5.1 through Epic Games Launcher at a later time, but for now please build from GitHub
• Fixed a Mobile Preview crash on Mac when Mobile Deferred is enabled and Preview Rendering Level set to iOS Shader 3.1
• Fixed an issue that was preventing movable lights from properly casting light on Mac

@sfjohnston

I’m back to being completely unable to develop on macOS.
a) Is the CL23230400 supposed to be a link, or is there a mysterious location I need to know about to find the patches?
b) The GitHub link refers to the 5.1 branch rather than the “release” 5.1 branch. There are currently many differences between the two. Which one is expected to be used with the QFE?
Thanks!!
