Describe the bug

i'm using playcover Version 3.1.0 (1056) on a M1 Macbook Air Recently updated to Mac OS tahoe. in earlier versions whenever i launch a game it would show a keymapping menu on the menu bar on the top of the screen where i can edit where the virtual touches are and assign keys to them. now it's no longer there. i tried opening playcover and launching the game from clicking the icon in the app itself instead of launching the game directly from spotlight search or the launchpad. then i finally saw the keymapping option, except when i clicked on it, nothing happened. then when i closed and relaunched again the keymapping option was nowhere to be seen. The keymapping menu has gone from all of the games. exporting keymaps directly from the playcover app works. importing keymaps also work. the issue is we can't edit, upsize or downsize anything anymore.

Steps to reproduce

Update your mac to Tahoe and try launching any playcover game

Expected behaviour

If keymapping option is visible, mostly likely to be unresponsive. usually it's not there at all, not even visible from Help -> searchbar.

I already have keymapping on all my games, but sometimes there are instances where i need to move the WASD mapping to somewhere else a little bit to the left or the right because in some games like zenless zone zero the joystick doesn't stay in one place and slightly changes coordinates from one game mode to the other. now i can't do that anymore since the keymap menu is not there.

Hmm, let's hope PlayCover developers will solve it very soon

Duplicate of #1928 and see this comment https://github.com/PlayCover/PlayCover/issues/1970#issuecomment-3301161995. Immediate support for newly released macOS depends on when the build pipeline will be updated, so please be patient.

If you download the Nightly version instead of version 3.1.0 from the official Playcover website, the problem is fixed.
