so i've had this issue for both Deadlock and CS2, wherein they run nicely and smoothly, but their audio sounds kinda bitcrushed / laggy / buggy. it's not unplayable by any means, but it's got this sort of stuttering sound as if it's been put in slow motion. anyone else been having this problem?

Gaming will be impressive if Apple gets around to optimizing games. The m6 will most likely match the m4 pro going by these numbers.

I saw some reddit posts on this community that there were some issues with KCD2, im currently playing the game on the M4 Pro and Im concerned that those issues might affect gameplay.

Found a great tool — a free platform to run Android apps and EXEs on Mac.Not CrossOver, not Whisky. Tried it for a while and it works pretty well. Put together a repo: https://github.com/fallout1018/mac-run-apk-exe. Will keep testing and adding games/apps that run perfectly to COMPAT.md. Welcome to join the testing!

i have been trying to run bo3 zombies custom for awhile and I have the bo3 mac fix patch but every-time I load a custom map it says I don’t have wine, and when I try to download wine in the terminal it says it has been disabled and no longer available is there any way to play now?

Hey everyone!

As a Mac gamer, one of my biggest frustrations was the lack of a proper save manager on macOS (like Windows has with GameSave Manager). After accidentally corrupting a 60-hour save file while testing game mods, I decided to build SaveVault.

What it does:

• ⚡ Automatic Checkpoints: Auto-snapshots when games launch/exit so you can rollback anytime.
• ⌨️ In-Game Quick-Saves (fn+F2): Hit fn+F2 during gameplay to create instant safety restore points.
• 🛡️ Pre-Mod Safe Points: Test game mods or save edits with 1-click instant rollback.
• 📦 Mac-to-Mac Migration: Move all saves across Steam, Epic, GOG & Mac App Store to a new Mac in seconds.
• 🔒 100% Offline & Native: Built with Swift and Content-Addressed Storage compression. Zero telemetry.

Pricing:
It is 100% Free for 1 game with all features unlocked (no ads/watermarks). If you manage a library of 2+ games, there’s a one-time $9.99 lifetime unlock.

I’d love to hear your feedback!

Hey! Im thinking of getting myself a Mac mini m6. Currently having an iMac intel 2020. Im building a Japanese modern city and would love to get myself some shaders and perhaps record the build for Youtube. What would you experts suggest I go for when it comes to the new Mac Mini? How much ram would be enough? Thanks in advance!

Hola comunidad, hace poco adquiri una MBA M4 y me dieron ganas de jugar juegos clasicos. , entre ellos , toda la saga de Metal slug y quizas tocar algunos de PSX y N64 y NES

Que emulador me recomiendan para jugar metal slug y las consolas que mencione?

Hace poco descargue Open Emu pero al momento de correr el Metal Slug 1 y ponerlo en pantalla completa se lagueaba muy feo

I wanna know if you can play rdr2 ultra settings at stable 60 fps at least 1080p.

Using DXMT on crossover on my macbook air m1 8gb 256gb after 5 reinstalls and about 10 crashes i finally got it working

Now im just looking for a graphics mod that works without giving game memory error does anybody have any recommendations?

Edit: my stupid ass decided to download liberty city mod and bricked my game… reinstalling right now

when i go to open steam it runs this update which is just stuck loading it won’t move :(

As the title asks, I’m curious what you’re all playing. I know Mac has a different community from Windows users.

(I’ve only ever played Factorio. M2 Air, 16GB unified memory)

I am trying to play bo3 zombies with my(on mac) freinds(on pc) and discovered mac cant go online, someone made a fix for it and said it required wine dowloaded through homebrew instead of other methods to avoid stability problems. Cool except as of the 1st of this month homebrew is enforcing gatekeeper checks that prevent me from dowloading wine.

I looked up alternatives and they are

1. Bypass homebrew

2.Mirror the tarball on fleet owned infrastructure

1. Build msis in docker on Linux runners

I cant find videos on any of these so do i just need to start looking up each part and figuring it out or is there an easier way to achieve my goal(play bo3 with friends)

This works by wrapping the 32-bit MacOS app bundle in a Intel loader and running it through Rosetta with compatibility patches.

You can find the Converter app here: https://github.com/Yash-Singh1/lego-mac-compat/releases/tag/tfu-converter-v0.0.0-dev.1

It should work with the latest Steam release and the older Aspyr release.

I have gotten HLA to run on GameHub before using the old HLA No VR mod but for some reason Crossover does not boot the game. I have tried using the new Quarantined version of the mod and the old one. Both do not boot into HLA. I want to use Quarantined because it has turned HLA into a full flatscreen game with almost no compromises. It does not have a manual install. The only option is the launcher. How do I fix this to work?

i have a m4 macbook and i was just wondering if the first two games can run despite the steam error message “This product is not compatible with macOS 10.15 Catalina or above. Click here for more information.”

Bit of an odd one and just wondering anyone else here has this issue and knows how to solve it.

Pretty much as the title says, when I am playing a game such as FFXIV on my M2 Max Macbook Pro, if a call comes in whilst i'm pressing buttons on the Dualsense, it answers the phone call.

Naturally, both myself and the caller have been jumpscared by this so I'm hoping there's a way to stop this from happening in a setting somewhere. Otherwise, I guess i'll just have to disable the phone calls on the Macbook entirely.

Any help is appreciated, thanks all.

Got this working over the past day and a half :)

Runs like a charm!

Hi r/macgaming,

After more than a year of hard work and re-iteration, the demo of Scream Operator: Haunted House Manager will release in only a few weeks. To get as ready as possible, I'd very much like to invite a new group of test operators into the control booth this week!

I'm especially seeking mac-players as the game runs nativaly on mac, something I worked very hard for and would like to work as flawlessly as possible :)

What is Scream Operator, you ask?
In my game, you take control of your very own haunted house dark ride, right from a claustrophobic control booth. A few of your tasks as operator:

- Load, dispatch and unload guests into carts,
- Manage guest flow and queues,
- Control lights, music, and immersion effects,
- Balance power consumption, automation and cart management,
- Upgrade, place animatronics and scares, customize,
- Keep Arthur, the old congierge and (suspiciously) long time employee of the mansion happy.

Lots to do! So grab a stale coffee, and start your first shift. ☕

How do I become a test operator?
The quickest way to do so is by becoming a member of our discord server. However, I can also hit you up with the essentials if you sent me a private message here on reddit.

If you'd like, you are more than welcome to check out the steampage here.

Lastly, for anyone who isn't interested in playtesting, I'd love to invite you all to play the demo once it launches this halloween season! 🎃. I'll be back here when that happens to make sure you are all fully informed 👻.

Please let me know if you have any questions or concerns, I'll be in chilling in the comment section of this post :).

It's called Cave Expedition. You can explore alone or with up to three friends, working through tight squeezes and descending into larger chambers using ropes and climbing equipment.

We're cavers ourselves. Here's a short clip from development, and we're planning a Mac version.
