Trackmania 2020 on Mac M4

Hi everyone,

I have a Mac M4 and I'm trying to run Trackmania 2020 through Ubisoft Connect. I want to stick to a free, CLI-based solution (Homebrew/Wine) and avoid paid options like CrossOver or slow cloud gaming.

What I've tried:

  • Installed wine-stable via Homebrew.
  • Ran UbisoftConnectInstaller.exe, but I keep getting the "Fatal Error" crash.
  • Tried flags like --disable-gpu and --no-sandbox, but no luck.

The issue:
It seems wine-stable (x86_64) via Rosetta isn't playing nice with the M4 architecture and Ubisoft's renderer.

Questions:

  1. Is there a specific build on Homebrew that works flawlessly on M4?
  2. Are there any specific winetricks or environment variables (like WINE_MSYNC=1) I should use for the M4 chip?
  3. Any free alternatives to standard Wine that handle DX11/DX12 better on this specific chip?

Thanks for the help!
