The unlocking in CAS was highlighted in the livestream and worked there, so I expected it to work in my game. Alas, all I get is a crash. 

Tried a repair game but to no avail.

Everything else so far seems to be in working order, just the new cheat that's being unruly.

[crinrict]

@simmyfroggy Works fine for me on PC so maybe it's a Mac issue. You might wanna check the Mac forum for similar reports.

Checking with some Mac Players if they have similar issues

[simmyfroggy]

@crinrict There was one other person having the same issue, I'll check and see if they're on Mac or PC.

[crinrict]

@simmyfroggy Yeah, it seems it's a legit Mac issue. Found someone else that was able to confirm.

[simmyfroggy]

@crinrict Yeah, me too.
Hopefully that will make it easier to pinpoint.

[catniipzz]

@simmyfroggy I have the same issue! I also play on a Mac and just downloaded the pack. The moment I hit enter after typing the cheat the game just shut down completely

[dianed485]

I have the same problem and I also play on a Mac. It crashed twice, right as I entered the cheat, so I didn’t try again. Please fix it!

[spottyshihtzu]

It's happens for me too, on PS4 though (the standard one). I hit enter after putting in the cheat and the game immediately blue screened and I got the generic crash message.
