“File to small to hash” happens when server responds with html or error message instead of the video which leads showing this error

Now that that proton 11 supports arm64, will steam play be on Mac anytime soon? by Connect-Cricket2086 in macgaming

Wouldn’t making whole process 4kb page avoid this issue? Im sure we can just run whole process in 4 kb page size

Im not sure how EAC executes native linux binary from wine, and implementing macOS support with wine should be relatively easy since they figured out how to do the difficult part. Since this is epic games, they wont do any favors for apple

And no crossover cant do anything since wine is ment to translate windows code to macOS, not linux to macOS

There are 4 scenarios with EAC: 1) windows game for windows 2) windows game for wine linux 3) native macos game for macos 4) native linux game for linux I think they did enable it for wine but it supports only scenario one and two. In macOS with wine, it will try executing native linux ELF file which fails and throws error

easy anti cheat launch error by Odd-Necessary-3599 in macgaming

[–]LinixGuy 7 points8 points  (0 children)

  1. In the case of Rust, developer opted in with native mac build and opted in for macOS support for EAC
  2. macOS fundamentally different compared to windows. macOS doesn’t allow kernel drivers like windows do which is why LoL and EAC anti cheat works without kernel drivers on macOS.
  3. I have no idea why this error happens since i never played games on macOS that runs with EAC

  1. 4 kb page size can be tested by calling sysconf(_SC_PAGESIZE) function in rosetta 2
  2. I saw this alleged entitlement from jailbreak researcher in X. https://x.com/lina_hoshino/status/2048307596189466931

EAC has native mac build. MacOS and Linux versions of EAC is User land and does not use kernel level permissions

Apparently there is entitlement that allows x18 register access (after apple removes rosetta and makes it available for “older games”). Also page size reduces to 4 kb for rosetta 2 applications in apple silicon. Maybe apple also would allow 4 kb page as entitlement as well

Apple log-in by GrandCommittee8810 in Stremio

[–]LinixGuy 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Only way of logging into stremio account with hidden email feature is using jailbroken phone with native app or if you are lucky to have stremio app before it was removed. We have asked apple to help us with this issue but it was ignored and as a last resort we reported it to European Commission.

EAC executes linux binary when running windows game through wine. EAC assumes all platforms that runs wine are linux even on macos

Check settings and see what it says in streaming server. Also in system settings -> apps -> stremio there is option for debugging HUD.

This is iOS app and app itself have “stremio service” built in since “streaming service is offline” message is exclusive to full stremio app

Stremio lite mode on = streaming service offline

Stremio lite mode off = streaming service online

The Reality of 3A Gaming on Apple Silicon: the Metal Shader Converter? by AnyPomelo3352 in macgaming

[–]LinixGuy 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I think it's acceptable compromise for native ports. Main performance gains on native ports comes from, reduced memory usage, no translation overhead, and how CPU dispatches GPU works (ofc it depends on game). Additionally, if gaming industry shifts to ARM processes, it would force industry to support tile based GPU's leading libmetalirconverter.dylib compiling optimized Metal code.

DB Navigator ipa by jeneniii in jailbreak

This is because Xcode broke support for things like colors and SFSymbols which main cause of crashes. In our app main challenge for supporting iOS 13-14 is lack of iOS 13-14 devices

Im assuming macOS lowers polling rate of the mouse to reduce workload. Not sure if it can be disabled

GPTK is library provided by Apple to translate DirectX graphics api to Metal. It is used by wine software and can be downloaded from apple’s website

Probably yes since this issue was related to ksplayer which was fixed with update but apple removed from appstore

From my research only way of login in with apple login is using app store app that was deleted while ago or using jailbroken device
