@heroofjustice3349 28 күн бұрын

Actually I think if it will change anything then to worse. So-called 'Game Porting Toolkit' is useful mostly as emulation tool for users. Its not that helpful for devs. Actually it may even discourage from working on MacOS version because if consumer base from Mac can run game via emulation then why waste money and devs time on preparing native version for Mac?

@Esokyotoo 28 күн бұрын

@@heroofjustice3349 you can't really stop people from tinkering with emulation. And I don't think devs go oh yeah look at all these people emulating our game with a shitty performance let's keep it that way and ignore the possibility of having a native port with two times the performance. I think if money is being thrown around from apple and I think they're doing that already devs aren't going to pass on that. Doesn't matter the percentage of people gaming on macs. And I think it's a good start. I was actually hoping to see a more popular recent loved game being ported to Mac like cyberpunk 2077 with ray tracing. If that had happened that would've made headlines and encouraged devs a bit more to take initiative but in small strides I guess.

@FilSapia 28 күн бұрын

@@heroofjustice3349 Windows simply is the baseline and definitive platform for games. The overwhelming majority of "Linux" games are just Windows games running under Proton, and it's no different for macOS. Developers just do not want the headache of porting to multiple platforms when they could just target Windows and have Proton do the heavy lifting. (I support games developers professionally).

@jusatin 27 күн бұрын

Lol, no it won’t. GPTK2 does nothing to increase the potential buyer base of a Mac port. The games are still expected to break even without Apple subsiding development costs.

Tried Whiskey and Crossover, Not sure if I installed Game Porting toolkit or not but, I can get the game to play (in game videos) but when actually trying to play the missions (even the training missions) it lags very badly and then freezes the game having to force close it. On Crossover I have used the standard steam install as in this video and also used the kitchen sink bottle and installed steam on that but still get the same result. Any help you can give me will be appreciated mate. TIA.

Please update your driver to the latest version recommended by your hardware vendor. Current GP and graphics driver: or No installed graphics card has been detected on this PC. Please ensure your graphics card is correctly installed, and your monitor is connected to it correctly. If you are using a laptop with more than one graphics adapter and it is using the integrated graphics card by default, then you can change the adapter to use for this game in 'Graphics Settings' via the start menu.
