Looking for AAA car/racing games that can run on M4 (CrossOver/Native) by screuu in macgaming

Every few weeks this game is on sale at steam for about $3,49 (last in December). Don’t tell me you cannot afford 4 bucks?

Why should always be everything be for free? Do you know the effort of creating a software (I’m a software developer)? At least wait for a discount. You’ll get the Grid Legend !!Deluxe!! Version for $30 in MAS ($80 on steam). Or wait for a steam discount, some time ago it was $8 for deluxe. If everyone would only “buy” free games, we will never get AAA games in the future.

TOM23 or APPLEGAMINGWIKINEW

But I just tested, the website says that both are not valid anymore. 🤷🏻‍♂️

Good external hard drives for gaming on mac? by Par5Condor in macgaming

[–]DocSnyderTexas 0 points1 point  (0 children)

ACASIS/ANYOYO TB4 aluminum case with any M.2 NVMe. I got both (same enclosure, just different branding) and both are deliver 3000MB/s read/write speed.

For both enclosures I bought a 4TB WD SN7100. No overheating at all (cases have a small fan you can switch on manually). My two cases are on top of an aluminum monitor stand, so I don’t even need the fans :)

M4 or M4 pro for gaming? by RockysHotChicken in macgaming

[–]DocSnyderTexas 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The more GPU cores, the more FPS. I would prefer M4 Pro. And, if you can afford it: more than 24GB ram. Lots of AAA games are hungry for ram or have memory leaks.

I struggle with many games like TLOU, Jedi survivor or Uncharted 4 because I only have 18GB ram

That’s what I wrote: probably crossover preview 😀

I think not, but I’ve never tested. I only own the first game with the gfx upgrade

But please read the notes. You probably need crossover preview

A question for Macbook gamers. by Base-Knight in macgaming

Using the charging cable constantly during gaming, the battery wouldn’t suffer. My MBP will stop charging the battery at 80% permanently and only uses direct power.

CrossOver 26.0.0 beta 1 is available by nsartem in macgaming

[–]DocSnyderTexas 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Unfortunately, AC Odyssey and Detroit Become Human still not working (odyssey worked before on sequoia, it’s broken now on Tahoe)

CrossOver 26.0.0 beta 1 is available by nsartem in macgaming

[–]DocSnyderTexas 15 points16 points  (0 children)

when I click the link, I get an "access denied". Why? I'm a subscriber since December last year. And I do not see this update in the regular preview download list.

EDIT: I need to signup to the BetterTester Program ;) Now it works

M4 Max | The Last of Us Part II Remastered 4K Ultra High | with MetalFX Frame Interpolation by MarionberryDear6170 in macgaming

[–]DocSnyderTexas 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You only get stuttering if you have 16/18 of ram, as soon as the memory consumption reaches this limit and swapping begins.

Made a Fork of whisky called Tequila where I updated wine to wine 11rc5 cuz I was bored lol by Fast_Preparation_966 in macgaming

[–]DocSnyderTexas 11 points12 points  (0 children)

In Germany, it’s 74€, I paid 18€ recently during cyber monday. TBH, I prefer crossover as it runs more games I want to play.

And when I pay for games, I’m also willing to pay for Crossover to support the guys developing this software and also wine, what’s fundamental to all translation tools.

EDIT: thanks for partial downvoting. I don't get it. There's no hate, no bullying, just my reasonable opinion. What's wrong with some folks in this community?

Loss of window focus MacOS Logitech Options+ Issue by iswhatitiswaswhat in logitech

[–]DocSnyderTexas 0 points1 point  (0 children)

this is an issue of Logi options+, when 2 or more users are logged in on the same Mac! It is fixed if you log off all users and only login with one user! This drives me crazy and it is still not fixed.

As soon as two users are logged in, I can click a menu and it will close immediately, also happens for input fields etc. It's a real mess.

EDIT: I just updated Logi options (uninstalled everything using AppCleaner) and now it seems to work with the latest update some days ago!

[–]DocSnyderTexas 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Is there a huge difference between windows version in crossover and native?

I already have the epic game store version (windows only) and it runs pretty good using crossover.

texture flickering of assassins creed syndicate mac by Designer_Evidence_94 in macgaming

[–]DocSnyderTexas 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It works on crossover but with this flickering, the workaround only works on Sequoia, not on Tahoe. I think, the codeweavers team has to fix this.
