macOSCaseSensitivityPatch

Make apps work on case sensitive macOS.

Warning

A few apps may still not work until I have found a solution regarding permission errors.

A few apps may need their mach-o header modified.
I'm working on a helper program to achieve this.

See the compatibility table below.

Usage

1. Download the latest dylib from the releases
2. Inject the dylib:
   • Manually
     1. Run DYLD_INSERT_LIBRARIES=<ABSOLUTE_DYLIB_PATH> <APP_BINARY_PATH>
        • Example: DYLD_INSERT_LIBRARIES=/Users/alexandra/Downloads/macoscasesensitivitypatch.dylib /Applications/Xcode.app/Contents/MacOS/Xcode
   • Permanently
     1. TBD

Note: You may need to use sudo -i when injecting manually, if you see a "permission denied" error.

Compatibility

Status	App	Reason
✅	Adobe After Effects	Works once installed, but the installers need their mach-o header modified.
❌	Steam
✅	Ultimate Vocal Remover
⚠️	Unity	Works with a modified mach-o header.
⚠️	Wuthering Waves	Works, but needs to be launched as root.
