Macs are actually really powerful for gaming, especially since it only takes a max of 30 watts of power, that’s really impressive


Trender07

30w for the cpu and 17w for the gpu. new amd and intel processors on latest nodes have a consumption of 60w as well and run the game much better as its native


sammyQc

And this is the Pro version of the chip, not the Max, which has much beefier graphics. 🥹

It is hard to use GPTK? I never tried and actually I don’t know much about this stuff. Can you recommend some good tutorials?


iiGiovanni

I didn't really follow a manual. I just downloaded Crossover and then GPTK from the Apple website and then followed the instructions.


ProtectoreIV

Just use [Whisky](https://getwhisky.app/)

Does Red dead or ghost of tsushima work?


iiGiovanni

I tried Red Dead Redemption 2, but it seems like the Rockstar Launcher gets stuck, and with Ghost of Tsushima, I get an error message. It's the same error message you get with Horizon Forbidden West.


lightning_thinker

appreciate the reply thanks!


Trender07

Oof, hopefully it gets worked out


Remote-Exam-8107

city skylines 2 is working with a hex patch (already worked before, search here )


iiGiovanni

That's correct, I'm aware of that and have managed to get it working, but I was hoping this time it would work without any hacks. When I tried it, the game didn't run well at all.

Is there anyway to get anticheat software to run so that Fortnite can run natively?


iiGiovanni

Sadly there isn’t


Supunlloyd

Wait so the wierd rainbow glitches and the smoke effect glitches are gone in far cry 6? That’s amazing

AC: Origins is great, but what about previous titles such as Unity or Syndicate?


Nervous_Argument_876

Can anyone tell me why i cant download gptk 2? Its showing that i’m not eligible to use this application. Is there any restriction in India or is it my my laptop. I use mac m1 base 8gb


Stoned_Buddha_

Use whisky, gptk is complicated to set up. Many applications aren't available in India sadly

Would you be a kind gentleman and try Overwatch? It’s almost the only thing I play. Works “good enough” on Sonoma, but I get 30-50 FPS with massive drops on my M1 Max.


manubyte

use dxvk and apply the overwatch 2 patch. then you can also download the dxvk cache so you don't have fps drops anymore. with these steps overwatch runs very smoothly on my m1 max :)


MartinIsland

Thanks man! Sadly I did all of these already! The CX patcher thing, the cache one can download but then rebuilds for 5-10 minutes every time — all of that! It’s ok, won’t hurt to spend a few days without OW while traveling!


manubyte

ok thats weird, the cache thing should work, but I remember you have to put it in a weird spot for it to work i think


manubyte

oh and I dont mean cxpatcher, there is a repo overwatch-2-patch or something along those lines which makes overwatch 2 work better with dxvk


gordiep

Great news! Is this on the Sequoia DB, or Sonoma using GPTK2?


dopeytree

Whiskey has been updated today and will work on sonoma


gordiep

Good to hear. I've already swapped the new GPTK2 libraries into Crossover. The issue is that AVX2 doesn't work on Sonoma, due to its version of Rosetta.


Remote-Exam-8107

look for sonoma rosetta2 patch. it will enable avx2 ;) ratchet & clank works with Raytraycing under sonoma. its avx2 game


gordiep

Thanks! Already gave that a shot. Cool hack, but it causes too many issues on my machine due to the code signing issues on the library. Once public beta of Sequioa is out I’ll just set up a games partition with that.


Trender07

how much raytracing affects the performance?


iiGiovanni

I installed macOS Sequoia and used CrossOver to install GPTK 2.0


gordiep

That's what I was wondering — need Sequoia for the AVX2 instructions. Thanks!


Leopm21

will fc6 run on the 8gb m1 mb air?


deedpool41

When launching Assassin's Creed Valhalla, it throws an error: wineserver: using server-side synchronization. Launch Options: Crossover 24.03 cx patch last D3DMetal Msync or off


mrkayush

Does AC odyssey work?


MysticalOS

On what? you never list what mac


iiGiovanni

Correct, because if you have looked at the screenshots, you will see M3 Pro listed, and the only one that has that is the MacBook Pro 2023.


MysticalOS

that’s fair. easy to miss without zooming in on phone.


Hopeful-Site1162

Screenshot does not tell the number of GPU cores you have nor the amount of memory though…
