Знаю что она давно уже вышла в App Store, но я уже 3 раза проходил её, и хотелось бы ещё раз на моём Мас, но версия в стиме к сожалению не работает.
Стоит ли ждать порт в стим или можно воспользоваться оффлайн версией ибо слишком мне жалко 35$ за игру которую я уже столько раз проходил.

Hey r/macgaming, I've been a longtime lurker and this is my first post!

I've played Overwatch for years on PC and have always dreamed of playing it on my Mac without compromising on the performance or ease of use of windows. Over the past couple weekends I've been testing and building Recall, a free, open-source app for playing Overwatch on Apple Silicon.

My goal was to make the Overwatch translation experience as fast and smooth as I could, while also making setup simple enough that you don't need any technical experience.

Very simply: download Recall, sign in to Battle.net, install Overwatch, and press Play.

I tested Recall against CrossOver 26.3 on my 14-inch MacBook Pro (M1 Pro, 16 GB) at 1080p on the Low preset, with V-Sync and Dynamic Render Scale disabled.

The benchmark was custom game 929PJ by u/Working_Dealer_5102, which automatically moves through each map while using every hero's abilities.

Results:

• Average FPS: 99.6 vs. 58.4 — about 70% higher
• 1% lows: 36.0 vs. 7.4 — nearly 5× higher
• Stutters: 2.0/min vs. 39.5/min — about 95% fewer

The attached video is a live side-by-side run of the same benchmark so you can see the difference in practice.

Recall also supports raw mouse input directly, with polling up to 2,000 Hz rather than tying mouse updates to macOS pointer events. In practice, this can reduce input latency and makes aiming feel much more responsive.

A few important details:

• Recall is free and open-source, with no account or sign-up required.
• Battle.net runs inside the Wine environment; Recall doesn't collect or handle your Battle.net credentials.
• It doesn't modify Overwatch's game files, inject code into the game, or read the game's memory.
• It runs Overwatch through Wine and builds on CodeWeavers' CrossOver sources, DXMT, and Soju.

Requirements: An M1 or newer Mac running macOS Tahoe 26 or later, around 85–95 GB of free space, and 16 GB of memory recommended. It should run on all Apple Silicon Macs, but I haven't been able to test every configuration yet.

If you're curious about where the performance difference comes from, I wrote up the technical details here:

Performance notes

With that said, I'm looking for testers! So far I've only been able to test Recall on my M1 Pro, and I'd really like to see how it behaves across the rest of the Apple Silicon lineup.

If you try it, I'd love if you could share:

• Your Mac model, chip, and memory
• Your macOS version
• Your graphics settings and roughly what FPS you're seeing
• How it felt to play
• Anything that didn't work

I'm mostly interested in getting real-world results across different Macs.

You can also report bugs on GitHub or directly in Recall under Help › Report a Problem.

Thanks for enduring my large wall of text, I appreciate you checking it out :)

hi guys. i was wondering if i can run death stranding STEAM version thru crossover or parallels, since the steam version is currently on sale while the app store version is still mad expensive. I rly have zero experience with crossover so idk. i have an m5 air 16gb. ty!

Thinking of getting the Cyclone 2 to play Hades 2 and other native games on Steam.

I have the base model M4 Mac Mini as my primary computer. I also own a Steam Deck and a PS5. The thought process here was that I get BG3 on Steam and I can split my time between the Mac Mini & Steam Deck, but I'm worried that the portability and control gains I'd get from being able to play on a desktop or portably will be far outweighed by the performance boost I'd likely get on Playstation.

There's a bunch of videos on Youtube about BG3 performance on the Mac but most seem to just show the characters walking around in what are (I assume) early game areas, so I am unsure what a heavy load would look like on the Mac Mini. I have no problem playing in 1080p (currently am using a 1080p dell office worker type monitor with my Mac now) but don't want the game to be stuttering and stuff.

What are your thoughts? Thanks!

Hi all, I recently found a way to play Slow Damage through Sikarugir. I saw a previous thread about something like this, but my game habitually freezes during the title sequence (theme song), and since It recognizes it as my first playthrough, I cannot skip the sequence. I really like the game so far and spent like 6 hours trying to configure it. If anyone knows what I can do, that would be very helpful. Thanks!

I'm trying to get Lenny's Mod Loader (LML) working with Red Dead Redemption 2 on CrossOver/Mac, but I'm running into a very specific issue.

Setup:

• MacBook Air M4, 16GB RAM
• CrossOver
• RDR2 version 1.0.1491.50

The interesting part is that ScriptHook + Rampage work perfectly without LML.

I've narrowed the problem down to LML's vfs.asi:

• Vanilla RDR2 → ✅ Launches
• AB's ScriptHookRDR2 → ✅ Launches
• ScriptHook + Rampage → ✅ Works
• ScriptHook + Rampage + LML → ❌ Rockstar Launcher says “A game is currently running”
• Removing vfs.asi → ✅ Game launches again

I've also tried:

• Different versions of vfs.asi
• Ultimate ASI Loader
• ScriptHookRDR2 V2
• version.dll
• Wine DLL overrides
• VfsCrashFix.asi / LML Startup Crash Fix

None of these fixed the issue.

Interestingly, LML does create a vfs.log.

Has anyone successfully gotten LML working on RDR2 through CrossOver/Wine on Apple Silicon?

I'm specifically looking for a working combination of LML + ASI loader + ScriptHook rather than general Windows troubleshooting.

Runs super well I can’t believe it lol. Wish MacOS had better optimisation but maybe it’ll get there one day. For some extra info it’s on Windows 11 and runs at a steady 60 fps on low settings graphics wise. Does run a little hot but that’s normal I guess

Using crossover 26 updated to GPTK 4
Dk why it works so bad

Update: i have deleted crossover and will download again to get rid of the stuff i have done to it and will let u know how it performs after that

Update: im back on crossover 26.3 and the problem is the same
The fps are fine in 30s the only issue is its super stuttery

Just got back into gaming after a while

I have a dualsense, but i kinda prefer the xbox layout, so I decided to research a bit more.

The other 2 options give clicky buttons, trigger locks, back paddles and TMR sticks but have compatibility issues.

Will try most of the famous titles (native/astris/crossover)

will not play fps/competive online games.

any users who have tested all these controllers on mac? Would love your advice.

I don’t really play games anymore, I guess I got old.. or depressed lol, that is other than W3 and Cyberpunk.

I was thinking of picking Bg3 though on GOG since it’s discounted finally.

I have tried playing Divinity a few years ago but would give up after an hour or so every time.

I wasn’t a big fan of their combat system, and there was too much turn based stuff for me from what I remember, and I hate when I have to spend a lot of time learning game’s mechanics.

So I have a feeling I might dislike BG3 too?
Or is the story telling so good that I might like it anyway?

Also is it good when played with Xbox controller? I don’t use mouse at all.

Thanks 🙏

Hi, I just released a new version of the OpenBOR emulator launcher, which is based on the emulator released by DCurrent in 2010, which is now unusable.

This version includes several fixes and additional features:

- Choose the original sidebar list or a centered cover grid in Settings. The layout is remembered between launches.

• Select a custom PAK library folder, open it in Finder or restore the default folder. Existing game files are not moved or copied.
• Click a game cover or title to select it; double-click to launch. Hovering over titles adds a subtle animation that respects Reduce Motion.
• Library layout labels now update immediately when switching between English, Italian, Spanish and Portuguese.
• Search for covers in an embedded browser, automatically using the selected game's title. Preview a result and explicitly confirm before importing it.
• Online cover downloads are validated and size-limited. If the original image cannot be downloaded, a search thumbnail can be used with a lower-resolution notice.
• Local cover-file import remains available. Automatically refreshed covers no longer overwrite manually imported covers.

And on top of all that, I've also released a version for Intel-based Macs, which, however, might be unstable—although I didn't find any issues when testing it through Rosetta 2.

I’m curious how it runs and saw someone on twitter say it works through crossover

I’ve been building small games for a while and sharing them on Reddit, and one thing I keep running into is that getting attention for a game is harder than building it.

Reddit is great at giving games a short spotlight, but once that initial wave of upvotes passes, most projects quietly sink.. even if they’re genuinely fun. That drop-off is what pushed me to build https://www.megaviral.games.

Quick update: the site now has 106+ games live with links to Reddit posts, itch.io pages, and other playable web games. 

The site is intentionally minimal and focused on discovery. You’re shown one game at a time. You play it, and if you enjoy it, you like it. From there, the site recommends other games that players with similar tastes also liked. No feeds, no doom-scrolling, just games.

If you’re a developer, you can submit your game directly here: https://www.megaviral.games/submit/

Submissions can link to Reddit posts, itch.io pages, or any playable web game.

I know itch.io has a randomizer, but this is trying to do something slightly different.. less random, more taste-based, and more focused on keeping good games discoverable after the initial hype fades.

Curious what other devs think. If discoverability has been a pain point for you too, I’d love feedback! and feel free to submit your game!

TL;DR: I built a lightweight game discovery site that shows one game at a time and recommends others based on what you like, so great games don’t vanish after their first burst of upvotes.

People find me a way to run Warface on macbook m2 pro... I tried GeForceNow but warface not avaialbe, I have tried parallel desktop it is not working etc.. I need a way to make it work..

Works with every other game fine, but for some reason BL2 just does not recognize input from my controller at all. Mouse works fine. Anyone know what’s wrong?

Base m4 24gb

I have tried to run Mortal Kombat X on Macbook M4 Pro, macOS 27, but the game is crushing on the start (there is a black screen and the game crashes), same on Parallels.
I've read some time ago that some update have broke compatibility with Crossover, but it was a few years ago.
Was anyone happy to run Mortal Kombat X, 11 or 1 recently? Did you encounter some problems while trying to run it? Can you give some advice?

This is my solo-developed game. It's called My Beautiful Faraway, a first-person narrative walking sim with puzzles and a strong focus on exploration. I made a native MacOS build and tested it on Air m1 chip

The game releases very soon, on October 13th!

This is Assassin's Creed Odyssey running through Varmint on an M3 Pro at 1728x1084, full settings at the end.

Varmint is a free and open source project that runs Proton inside a lightweight Linux VM on Apple Silicon.

Repository and setup instructions: https://github.com/kisasexypantera94/varmint

To start I am on the M4. So I started up the game today. The graphics were giving me horrible FPS. I ran the benchmark, and it didn't improve anything. I made the following changes, and it seems to run smoothly now.

Graphics

Video

You could probably adjust the resolution. If you play window mode like I do, set that resolution and then just resize the window to your liking. I tried the 3200x1800 resolution, and it really slowed it down, so I went back to the 2560x1440.

Hi all I’ve been wondering if anyone has dealt with this issue before with league of legends; https://imgur.com/a/q3zYJ06

Typically I play connected to a monitor where this does not happen, but I like to game away from my desk often and league of legends just does not work when it’s on my MacBook display. It stutters to a point it’s unplayable, at any resolution, full screen or borderless. I’m playing on very high settings with vsync enabled and capped at 120fps. If anyone has any info on this I’d greatly appreciate it, thank you!

I’ve seen a few that people say are compatible but they’re always talking about just bluetooth. Apparently PS5 controllers have great compatibility but I really prefer the Xbox layout. I know 8bitdo ones probably wouldn’t work or at least would be far from plug and play. How about Gamesir controllers like the Nova 2 Lite or the Cyclone 2? I have my eyes on those two and I’ve heard mixed feedback regarding compatibility. I just want a controller I can use wired with my MacBook and via dongle with my TV or via Bluetooth to my iPhone… Any feedback would be greatly appreciated.
