Is python scripts currently supported in the latest version of OBS (22.0.3) on macOS? I'm trying to load a script, but unable to get any output in console. I've tried setting python path to /usr/local/Cellar/python/3.6.5 but nothing have changed, still no output.

According to logs, it's trying to find libpython3.6m.dylib which i've located at /usr/local/Cellar/python/3.6.5/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/3.6/lib, but once i select this path OBS crashes with "RETURNING UnknownFS PLACEHOLDER: <private>" in console.app and nothing interesting in logs
 
Also it crashes without any crashlog (no prompt and nothing in ~/Library/Logs/DiagnosticReports/)
 
Also, there is nothing in obs crashes directory (~/Library/Application Support/obs-studio/crashes/)
 
Same result with the python from the official site (/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/3.6/lib - that path)
 
Versions i've tried:
3.6.3 3.6.5 - from homebrew
3.6.4 3.6.8 - from the official python macos packages
 
Changed python path via global.ini and was able to grab these lines from the log:

01:52:20.494: [Python] Python failure in obs_scripting_load_python:1675:
01:52:20.494: [Python] Error importing obspython.py', unloading obs-python
01:52:20.494: [Python] Failed to load python plugin
 
Python scripting has never been officially supported on mac since we couldn't get it to work (also issues with the buildserver I believe). Doesn't appear that anybody has figured out why it didn't work or fixed it.

Actually, after some hours of researching i was able to get it to work on my own machine, by modifying some stuff inside of OSU.app, but unfortunately I'm not familiar with C++ and OBS source structure itself to make my findings into a pull request.

can you remember what you did to make it work? Running obs 23.2.1 I'm getting the following error when I try to link to my homebrew-installed 3.6.5_1 at /usr/local/Cellar/python/3.6.5_1/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/3.6/lib/:

Code: 
Fatal Python error: Py_Initialize: unable to load the file system codec
ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'encodings'

(same issue as https://obsproject.com/forum/threads/fatal-python-error-crash-on-startup.99516/)
