Unable build a standalone in Ventura

After I updated macOS to Ventura 13.2.1, LC could not export standalone applications for iOS.
xcode 13.2 icon is disabled, as shown in a screenshot I attached.
Is there any walkaround to solve this issue?
Please advice,
Louis

If you can't build in Ventura try taking the Amtrak south a few miles to Oxnard and see if I'll build there.

So, are to conclude that like MacOS Sorbet Leopard, MacOS Oxnard is a souped-up version of a standard MacOS version?

To avoid any train travel, you can do this (posted to the mailing list):
1. Rename the version of the Xcode app required by Livecode (e.g. version 13.2) to 'Xcode 13.2’.
2. In Livecode Preferences -> Mobile Support select the Xcode 13.2 app as the location for iOS SDKs.
3. Download version Xcode 14.1 RC2 from the Apple Developer site.
4. When Xcode 14.1 is installed as Xcode app in the applications folder, launch Xcode and select ‘Simulator’ from the Xcode -> Open Developer Tool menu.
5. In the dock, control click (right click) on the Simulator icon select Options -> Keep in Dock - this allows you to launch the Simulator app at will.
6. With the desired simulated device open use Livecode’s Development -> Test to launch your app in the open Simulator. This has worked fine for me so far!
Also (as others have pointed out), the Xcode 13.2 app is disabled under Mac OS Ventura. You can still select it as the source of Livecode’s iOS SDKs but you cannot launch the app.
You can ignore #4-6 if you don't require the simulator.

Thank you guys, but I still have no luck. The simulator works fine, but LC is unable to save the standalone. I definitely want to avoid any train travel

Sorry, there is one more step. I assume you still have XCode 13.2 installed. You need to tell XCode which command line tools to use. This is one way:
https://forums.livecode.com/viewtopic.p ... ls#p197005
Run the command in terminal, but use "xcode 13.2" (or whatever the path is) in the terminal command.
Another way to do it is to open XCode 14, go to XCode preferences -> Locations pane and choose XCode 13.2 from the Command Line Tools popdown.

Is there a way to extract the Simulator and run it without having Xcode installed on the device?

I doubt it. The simulator is an extension of Xcode.

The simulator is actually a separate app inside of the BIG Xcode app, but I doubt it will work without/outside of Xcode.
