Arena 5 issues on Mojave

Arena 5 isn't running for me on Mojave 10.14, I have some old projects that need Arena 5 because of plugins that aren't available for 6 and 7. I tried redownloading Arena 5 and installing it, but still doesn't work. Any suggestions?

Try renaming the Documents/Resolume Arena 5 folder to check if it's an issue with the settings.
If it doesn't help, please attach the mac crash log, and the Resolume log file from ~/Library/logs/Resolume/

I don't think there is a crash log because the program just doesn't open at all when I double click on the application or try to open a Composition with it.

Mac crash log should be in /Users/yourUser/Library/logs/diagnostic reports
Does the Resolume log file exist in /Users/yourUser/Library/logs/Resolume/ ?

If you're looking to jump into the new Resolume 7, this box is affordable and will get you off the usb dmx path and into artnet:

So, what's the error message in the system, and the crash log in the folders I posted earlier?

It’s empty. Like we both said earlier. It doesn’t even get to a state where it launches to put anything in there.
