Test build of the no-Terminal app. Not tested end to end yet: please report what happens.

Download bo2-mac.zip, double-click it to unzip (the unzip command breaks the signature: use Finder or ditto -x -k), open Black Ops II.app, then point it at your game folder. No Homebrew, no Terminal: the app carries its own translation tools. The only thing macOS may ask you to install is Apple's Command Line Tools.

  • Requires macOS 26 or later on Apple silicon. On macOS 14 or 15, keep the Terminal install from the README.
  • Signed and notarized (Developer ID, Adrien Robino).
  • Contains no game file and no translated game code. You still need your own Steam copy and the three decrypted executables described in the README.
  • What was checked: the app starts without Homebrew, verifies the executables and begins the campaign conversion. A full conversion and a match from this app have not been run yet.
  • Also includes the shader prewarm from main (fewer freezes from the second launch on).

Unicorn (GPL-2.0) ships as a separate library and is linked only on your Mac. Its exact source is attached: unicorn-2.1.4-source.tar.gz.
