 ### Installing brew
 
 1. `/bin/bash -c "$(curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Homebrew/install/HEAD/install.sh)"`
 2. Set up the Homebrew shell environment:
-   1. **On an Intel Mac:** `eval "$(/usr/local/Homebrew/bin/brew shellenv)"`
-   2. **On an Apple Silicon Mac:** eval `"$(/opt/homebrew/bin/brew shellenv)"`
+   - **On an Apple Silicon Mac:** eval `"$(/opt/homebrew/bin/brew shellenv)"`
+   - **On an Intel Mac:** `eval "$(/usr/local/Homebrew/bin/brew shellenv)"`
 
-### Installing Tool Dependencies
+### Dependencies
 
-The native versions of these can be used regardless of what type of Mac you have.
-
-`brew install git cmake ninja nasm automake libtool`
-
-### Installing Library Dependencies
-
-**On Apple Silicon Macs, Rosetta 2 and the x86_64 version of Homebrew must be used to install these dependencies:**
-1. `softwareupdate --install-rosetta` # Install Rosetta 2 if you don't have it. This only has to be done once
-2. `arch -x86_64 zsh` # run an x64 shell
-3. `/bin/bash -c "$(curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Homebrew/install/HEAD/install.sh)"`
-4. `eval "$(/usr/local/Homebrew/bin/brew shellenv)"`
-
-Then install the dependencies:
-
-`brew install boost molten-vk`
+`brew install git cmake ninja nasm automake libtool boost molten-vk`
 
 ### Build Cemu using CMake
 
 1. `git clone --recursive https://github.com/cemu-project/Cemu`
 2. `cd Cemu`
-3. `cmake -S . -B build -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=release -DCMAKE_OSX_ARCHITECTURES=x86_64 -G Ninja`
+3. `cmake -S . -B build -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=release -G Ninja`
 4. `cmake --build build`
 5. You should now have a Cemu executable file in the /bin folder, which you can run using `./bin/Cemu_release`.
 
 #### Troubleshooting steps
-- If step 3 gives you an error about not being able to find ninja, try appending `-DCMAKE_MAKE_PROGRAM=/usr/local/bin/ninja` to the command and running it again.
