+A user-friendly launcher for Project Epoch on Apple Silicon Macs, with one-click patching of winerosetta, rosettax87 and d9vk.
## Prerequisites
Before you begin, ensure you have the following:
-* A working version of **CrossOver** installed (the trial version is sufficient and can still be used after expiration).
- - I recommend using CrossOver v25.0.1 or later. Older versions will cause issues.
-* The **Turtle WoW Client** downloaded from the official website.
+* A working version of **CrossOver** installed (the trial version is sufficient and can still be used after expiration).
+ - You must use CrossOver v25.0.1 or later. Older versions will cause issues.
+* A 3.3.5a World of Warcraft client. You can easily get the client from [Project Epoch's download page](https://project-epoch.com/play)
+* Place the client in an folder you have rights to. Your user directory (example: `/Users/username/Epoch`) is a good default choice. Avoid spaces in your path!
