Initial release of HexAid — a native macOS in-place patcher for CrossOver on Apple Silicon.

Note: HexAid is an AI-generated tool based on and inspired by CXPatcher (@italomandara) and Procyon.

Highlights

• In-Place Patching of /Applications/CrossOver.app: No duplicate Crossover_patched.app clutter.
• Existing (Old) Bottles Automatically Benefit: Once patched, all existing bottles and already-installed games immediately use the upgraded media and graphics libraries.
• Full GStreamer + FFmpeg (libgstlibav.dylib) Upgrade: Auto-fetches the latest universal GStreamer.framework from Sikarugir-App/gstreamer to fix Windows Media Foundation (winegstreamer) cutscenes in Silent Hill 2 Remake and other UE4/UE5 games.
• Latest DXMT: Auto-fetches the latest 3Shain/dxmt release.
• Latest DXVK-macOS: Optional toggle to install the latest Gcenx/DXVK-macOS release.
• Apple Game Porting Toolkit (D3DMetal.framework) Integrity Check & Custom GPTK DMG/Folder Importer: Preserves bundled D3DMetal.framework and lets you import newer D3DMetal.framework builds directly from a mounted Apple GPTK .dmg.
• Bottle Performance Tweaks & Cache Cleaner: Enables WINEMSYNC=1 and ROSETTA_ADVERTISE_AVX=1 across existing bottles and clears stale GStreamer / d3dm shader caches.
