I've recently acquired an M1 Pro MacBook and will be testing the Wineskins over the next few weeks. Currently I have been unable to reproduce some issues faced by M1 users in the past:
- Startup crash on Intel or Rosetta
- Discord Rich Presence not working on Intel
The experience for me on the Rosetta Wineskin has been near-identical to the Intel Wineskin and so I am deprecating the Rosetta Wineskin for the time being (the download will remain up and functional).
My experience with performance:
The menu interface is extremely laggy at times but in-game performance has been acceptable (I've not experienced any lag spikes so far while in-game). It takes some time for the game to launch as well.
I am on macOS Monterey version 12.5 for those that are wondering.

"Workaround" for the frame drops on the main-menu: pause the music when you open the game (press the 'c' key).

Thank you for your detailed report!

Thought I could maybe contribute to this thread:
I've successfully gotten osu! to run: both on my new M1 macbook pro as well as my previous macbook pro (intel silicon, 2019), both on Monterey. Unfortunately I could not get the osu! intel wineskin build to run on the M1 mac but I am using the osu! intel wineskin on my older macbook.
Interestingly, the performance of osu! on the M1 macbook performs quite significantly worse than osu! on my old macbook, with higher latency and lower framerates on the same osu! settings. I suspect this is because wineskin is unable to make full use of the M1 chip (further supported by https://www.reddit.com/r/kotor/comments/verkn8/m1_macbook_air_slow_performance_under_wine/iimamus/).
Nothing else to add, but I will probably be sticking to my old laptop for osu! on mac for now, which is a bit of a shame.
Thank you for your detailed report!
