Now an M1 we know does have support for OpenGL 4.0+ so we definitely need to double check your OS updates and if you have access your integrated graphics card driver.

OOTP when it launches will automatically enable or disable your 3D Features depending on support for OpenGL 3.1. If it doesn't find that support it will turn that off. You can go in to the settings and try to force that back on by enabling it but the program will most likely give you the black screens you've been noticing because there isn't a supporting graphics card driver to process the graphics correctly. Also the next time you restart OOTP it will automatically disable that again.

I'll do some research about M1 Drivers for the integrated GPU if you can check your OS updates for us.

Thanks
Alex

Will do. How do we explain why some faces seem to load fine?

That's a good question. Were there system updated recently? Maybe something broke and you see faces that were generated before?

Have you changed any settings game or system before noticing that the faces are not generated anymore?

Just confirming that all my system updates are up to date. Not sure what else there is I can do on my end.

I've played around with the settings a bunch to get them to work, but as far as I can I remember the behavior has always been this way.

Hi Alex, checking to see if you have any other ideas?

I read in a forum that it you can try to deselect "Automatic graphics switching" in "Energy Saver" in your system settings. Not sure if you see that option there.

For some reason the game switches off the 3d support. Most probably this has to do with your system hardware or drivers. Unfortunately I'm not familiar with Macs.
