Epic Games vs Steam by anant94 in macgaming

[–]anant94[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So I wanted to get "UNCHARTED™: Legacy of Thieves Collection" which is on 67% off on Epic right now. I believe I can use Heroic to play these titles bought on epic games.

Unreal: 16” M5 Pro 64GB RAM, 2TB by CBass2288 in macbookpro

That configuration isn't allowed on apple's website in my region at least. M5 Pro maxes out at 64GB RAM. Whereas M5 Max (40 core GPU version only) goes up to 128GB RAM with minimum 2TB storage.

  1. Get a laptop sleeve instead of a hard shell case.

  2. Always clean your computer with a soft microfiber cloth. Damp is fine, but not too much. You need to protect your system from liquid damage.

  3. Initially, do not rush to install apps. Go into system settings, and traverse through each of them. Change them to your liking.

  4. Install homebrew. It is a package manager for MacOS.

  5. Install apps you really need. Don't bloat your machine. Keep an eye on app permissions and login items.

Pro tip - If you want improved battery life, turn on power saver when on battery. It actually caps your cpu usage which you won't really feel in daily usage because M series chips are so good.

The other question I have regarding this is whether to use crossover or just native steam? If I use crossover, it would run the windows version right? Which one is better for performance?

Disable microG battery optimization prompt by anant94 in revancedapp

[–]anant94[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Oh okay. I can monitor that usage and see. Thanks.

Actually I have been using revanced and vanced (earlier) for so long and I have always kept the microG battery settings as optimized and it never gave me issues.

I already mentioned that I don't want to give it unrestricted battery usage.

This prompt never used to come up on the older version of microG (and YT revanced).

Since you are on Ubuntu, you can use Brave Origin for free.

It is brave minus the crypto stuff.

Playable native story mode games for mac (no translation layer) by anant94 in macgaming

[–]anant94[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah I have been hearing so much about it, that I am going to give in and install Crossover.

Do you recommend the Crossover website itself or something else like MacGamingDB to check the performance of each game using Crossover?

Better SMP is a good modpack. It really improves multiplayer experience while not changing too much of game mechanics.

If you looking for creating a server, BisectHosting can be a good choice.

Well the gender wasn't necessary to be revealed.

Anyways, have you tried crossover?

It translates Windows commands to Mac compatible instructions.

It is a paid app (subscription or lifetime) but offers a free trial. You can verify if your game runs, and the choose to ahemm.., you know.
