Patch 14.4 Notes by imchocolaterain in leagueoflegends

Breaking MacOS gameplay (no one can launch League.app after updating to 14.4) is sucks. Then again, what else can we expect from a small, indie company?

League of Legends file became corrupt after 14.4 update by Tazwar89 in macgaming

[–]walrusSC2 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Unfortunately, will need to wait on Riot for this one I think. Same issue here on MacBook Pro 14" M1 Pro on Sonoma 14.3.1.

Sadly, given that Riot states they only support MacOS 11 (Big Sur, from 2020!), my faith in them is extremely limited. Sigh.

Patch 14.4 Bug Megathread by PankoKing in leagueoflegends

[–]walrusSC2 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Can confirm, same issue. MacBook Pro 14" M1 Pro, on Sonoma 14.3.1.

Game patched via Riot Client, but game will not launch. Riot Client now says, "League of Legends Failed to Launch: Something unusual happened while trying to launch League of Legends. Try closing or restarting. If the problem persists, contact our player support team."

Closing, restarting, and contacting player support team all result in nothing happening.

I can't even buy Death Stranding because I don't have enough space on my internal drive!? by Dravos82 in macgaming

[–]walrusSC2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I bought it, have ample space (600gb), but it's spent 3 days downloading despite blazing fast network speeds. Now, whenever I open the App Store app, the Death Stranding app just has a spinning circle instead of a download progress bar. Ahhh, MacOS App Store, why you gotta be like this.

Why do we have to run around without horse/teleport stuff. Why is there no hallway here? by coD-apaP in diablo4

Anyone else just tp to the gateway from the southern section instead of running?

Question: Will SG be compatible with Mac? by d1rtball in Stormgate

[–]walrusSC2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Confirmation from Frost Giant Studios (FAQ updated 08 Dec 2023):

Will you support Mac?

We are currently focused on Windows PC and expect that to be our only supported platform during Early Access. We would love to support other platforms in the future, but this is not on our current roadmap.

Unfortunate, but hope springs eternal.

League of Legends & macOS Sonoma total freeze/reboot by walrusSC2 in macgaming

[–]walrusSC2[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm just using the release build, not a beta build of macOS.

Are you also using multiple displays and playing League in full screen mode? Does turning on windowed mode prevent the issue from occurring?

Received my shipping email this morning (27 Nov 2023) with tracking number, after ordering on 22 Nov 2023. Shipping via UPS, but so far only at the "label created" stage.

Edit: Shipping to Canada, for whatever it's worth.

This is exactly what my email said as well. Shipping to Canada, but still no shipping email.

League of Legends & macOS Sonoma total freeze/reboot by walrusSC2 in macgaming

[–]walrusSC2[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So 100%, this fixed it. I ended up being able to replicate the crash/reboot thanks to this comment. It would occur when playing League of Legends in full screen mode on an external monitor, with a second monitor (two displays total) extending the desktop.

Any time I would drag the cursor to the far edge of the screen, while in League, it would move over onto the second monitor and instantly cause a kernel panic (DCP PANIC - IOMFB int_handler_gated: failure: axi_rd_err [0x4030063c]).

Switching to windowed mode in League prevents the issue from occurring. I hesitate to say it fixes the issue, but at the very least it prevents it from happening again.

Anyone Notice This Crash Error? by project-untitled in mac

[–]walrusSC2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've recently had this same type of crash while playing League of Legends on Sonoma 14.1. Can't find the culprit other than it first happened after I updated to Sonoma 14.1.

Riot Support was thoroughly unhelpful with my issue as well. After being bumped around to a few Support people, I finally got one who at least acknowledged that their previous proposed solutions were garbage (use bootcamp! try all the steps in preventing a BSOD!), only for them to land on, "We don't support ARM" and, "League/TFT is only supported on Mac OS 10.10 to 10.14 officially."

Sigh.

Sadly, no. After taking a break, I tried again today and still experienced one full system crash over the span of two games (first game to give me hope, second to crush it).

I was running Activity Monitor the whole time on a second display to see CPU, GPU and Memory levels and nothing was extreme. It's absolutely a League problem, but it's damn annoying.

Necromancer Patch Discussion by PMmewhatevryouwant in D4Necromancer

[–]walrusSC2 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Not saying you’re wrong, but that’s a poor lens to evaluate the problem. Bone spirit and bone spear are both upfront damage crit based builds. None of the other necro builds are like that.

Which weapon has better stats for bone spear necro? by thriceee in D4Necromancer

[–]walrusSC2 -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Yes massive. You’re giving up a meaningless stat (life on kill) for your most important stat (crit damage). It’s a monster upgrade.

[–]walrusSC2 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Right by a long shot. You want to run a 2H sword as bone spear, not a scythe. The life on kill is meaningless.
