Is there a magical way to run a 32 bit installer/app on Mac (Big Sur)?

I just purchased Geist and Geist 2 from an another user and that came with all the factory content.

Unfortunately, it looks like the installer for Geist 1 won’t work on my Mac. Same goes for the factory content. It’s the latte that’s a bummer for me.

I have an old (not-very-legit) copy of Geist 1 on my Mac Mini M1 and it runs…
So given this, I’m thinking/hoping there must be a way for me to extract the factory content from the DMG file.

Any tips, bros and sis’s?

You could likely extract content from the DMG file. You can not currently run 32-bit applications, no. The only way you could run it is in a VM, and that wouldn’t be great for streaming audio, you’d probably have to render the audio for it to be useful in your main instance.

I finally managed to get the dmg file open (it was launching an incompatible installer when mounting). I copy/pasted the content folders over and, done! Small victories. Gotta savour 'em.
