Those of you who have been monitoring the forums know that Qt 6 is necessary to make builds that run on M1/2 processors without emulation. While the above builds are not native for M1/2, they are the next step towards ones that are. We’ve done some internal testing but we would like…

We’ve not released any builds for Apple Silicon. The linked Qt6 Test Builds thread was to test out the upgrade to Qt 6 for Mac which is a required step along the way toward builds for Apple Silicon.
