Welcome to the forums.

I don’t have any experience working with mac and Unreal together but I can pretty much guarantee that it is the specs. 8gb is the minimum ram requirements but from experience I can tell you that it just isn’t enough. That’s even what the error says:

> “Command Buffer Translucency Failed with OutOfMemory Error! Error Domain: MTLCommandBufferErrorDomain Code: 8 Description Insufficient Memory”

I’ll point you to [this thread](https://forums.unrealengine.com/t/conflict-running-unreal-engine-on-mac-os/2657924) too as it covers some issues with xcode, but I’m fairly confident it’s the hardware limitations that are causing your issues.
