Mac [1.6.8-GOG] Crash on start on fresh install

[friedkiwi]

I've just purchased and downloaded Stardew Valley from GOG on macOS 14.5, and it crashes on my machine on start. There is no output on the console, and the crash report suggests an infinite loop here:

14 ??? 0x11393eb66 ???
15 ??? 0x11393ca16 ???
16 ??? 0x113912378 ???
17 ??? 0x113517316 ???
18 ??? 0x11351682b ???
19 ??? 0x112483410 ???

I've attached the full crash report - I tried following some of the instructions I found (eg the chown one) but that didn't work.

Hello,

It's me again!
I read the Customer Support and it addresses that bug here is the post:

Stardew Valley is not launching on Mac

Run the Terminal application (if you’re not sure how, click the magnifying glass in the top right, type Terminal, and select the first result). In the window that appears, paste in the following line (CHANGE “USER” to your username) and press enter:

sudo chown -v “$USER” ~/.config

This should correct the ownership of a folder that Stardew Valley needs to write under.

You’ll probably be prompted for your password by the above command, and then it’ll output something like /Users/yournamehere/.config. Try running Stardew Valley again, and hopefully, it’ll work this time.

Warmest Regards,

same issues here. I firstly downloaded from steam but even after reinstalling/verifying integrity, and even downloading the dotnet7.0 sdk, the game still didnt started and crashed. I believe that the crashreport on the original post have the same problem in here. I have no idea what to do next.
