[OSX] Unofficial Path of Exile port - 30/12/2018 status update

Just came by here to tell you that it is working very good with the new iMac 27" late 2012 and the V4 wrapper!

My new iMac has 3,4 GHz Intel Core i7 / 16 GB 1600 MHz DDR3 / NVIDIA GeForce GTX 680MX 2048 MB with the 1 TB Fusion Drive (3 TB is known not to allow a separate bootcamp partition).

On this machine POE runs with FPS between 35-60 in the wrapper. I have high textures, max shadows and a resolution of 2560x1440 enabled.

The FPS drops are still there but (I think because of the SSD and general Framerate) it is much less noticeable. Actually I would say it is possible to play HardCore with it :)

My former iMac 27" is the late 2009

That older one has 2,8 GHz Intel Core i7 / 16 GB 1067 MHz DDR3 / ATI Radeon HD 4850 512 MB

On that I used to run Medium Textures (obviously) and full shadows also in 2560x1440. It has FPS from 15-40 (more like 20-30) and much worse FPS Drops with the Bosses/Effects on the first time.

So I am pretty happy now and besides problems with Parallels 8 with the new iMac I am all around pretty impressed with the technical progress Apple made with the new iMacs!

thanks !! it work very well for me !!

*Sorry for my bad english*

i know that julius has answered this type of issue at least 16 times before lol. check the windows technical forums and such and you will see ALOT of people have the same issue for windows. I as well have it on my mac, and my winodws laptop. This is not the wrappers fault. Hopeefully a new patch will better statbility for fps and lag spikes will be released by GGG. Then again, this game is free and is still in BETA, so cant really complain all that much.

Hey,

So I have tested all the wrappers. All are glitchy for me except the 3.1 which used to crash every 30minutes.

Since i re downloaded the wrapper (3.1) and exchanged the content file once again, tada :) it works perfectly. Played for about 1h30 without any problems. No major FPS drops nor crashes.

I use the command -cg 2 in the EXE flag in Wine advanced options and my resolution is set to 800x600 full screen with every thing to the minimum and unchecked.

Hope it will last and I hope for patches everyday to improve our gaming quality :)

Thanks again Julus, amazing amount of work you put in this thread!!!

I hope ill be skillful enough one day to do as much as you did :)


Enjoy the gaming !

works great, I always freeze when I fight Piety, all of that lightning is just too much for it I suppose. If I'm standing still for a while, maybe 15 minutes, the whole game freezes. other than that, this is amazing thank you very much for putting this together.

Hey Guys,

When I run any version besides 3.1, my game "stutters" as I think you guys are calling it, which makes it fairly unplayable. Version 3.1 has no stuttering or lag issues whatsoever for me, but the game does freeze every so often and there are a lot of things I can't see. For example, when I use Tempest Shield or Molten Shell I only see about half of what it looks like when I run a different version. More importantly, some of the enemies are COMPLETELY invisible, for example those little monkeys in act 2 or the act 2 boss, amongst various other enemies. Does anyone know how to fix the invisible enemy thing? I'd take a few invisible enemies over stuttering any day, but if I could have both that would be great :D

My system:

Mac OS X ( 15" Macbook Pro with Retina Display )

Version 10.8.2

Processor : 2.6 GHz Intel Core i7
Memory : 8 GB 1600 MHz DDR3
Graphics: NVIDIA GeForce GT 650M 1024 MB

Thanks for the help guys!

Hey sky,got the same as you. Go to show packages on your Poe app icon, click wine and go to advanced :) and add in EXE flag : "-cg 2" without the " " . That is a minor help even though it is not a complete fix. For the boss in act 2 and the monkeys... well i thought the monkeys wer invisible on purpose, sort of like they are in teh forest, so its normal that its hard to see them :) for the rest guess you have to deal with it. but yea the game not stuttering is much nicer already:)

Enjoy :)

Anyone been able to get it running on a the macbook black?

I have snow leopard and windows 7 on vmware.

If you have Macbook with Intel GMA (all macbooks made till the end of 2008( you will not be able to play.

I have a brand new macbook pro running 2.5 dual. I Installed VMware, running windows 7 32 bit, and i too am getting the same message. I rebooted windows, nothing happened. Any suggestions?

I was wondering if anyone test this software on the newest Macbook Air 11.6? GMA 4000HD 512 MB on the first page it says that it can't use the intel GMA but i was wondering if anyone test it?
