It works, but it is offseted. Don't maximize by buttons/drag by border, but set resolution ingame or config file

So not sure if this has been touched upon yet in this thread but I have verified that on my mac (and I assume others), under 3.6, 3.7, 4.0 and 4.0.1, voidbearers often cause DC or lagspike issues where they do not on a pc.

I highly recommend if you are a summoner not to use spectre skill on voidbearers (which sucks because they're good pets), and instead opt for the archers as your ranged spectres. Unfortunately, as a summoner (a poor build choice to use on a mac port, i know), I'm relegated to only soloing docks and can't really team with anyone who does a lot of skills with a ton of pixel effects (2 hand marauders=good, cold witches=bad).


Act 3 altogether is very choppy under Wine for less powerful computers. Hence I use Bootcamp for Act 3 and do the others under Wine.

Can't download "Download Links v4.0.1 - Recommended"


Works fine for me.


Ah. This corroborates highly with what I've been experiencing. Docks lags terribly because of voidbearers, Act 3 in general spikes erratically- and act 2 seemed fine.

Still, this is a step up from my Parallel's PoE. Managed to get to 48 nicely before seriously hitting a wall in the Docks (I've died at least 20 times due to framespike lags-- given up on levelling. Now I'll just run the other areas.

But where else to go, if not Docks? :(

I think Docks is laggy also because of weather effects, notably rain.

It's a tough one, because Docks has high monster level. I suppose Sewers could do instead...

The program client.exe has encountered a serious problem and needs to close.We are sorry for the inconvenience.

this can be caused by a problem in the program or a deficiency in wine.You may want to check codeweavers.com/compatibility for tips about running this application.

Your Mac should be fine.

I can't say much else than try again, and if unsuccessful, then redownload the wrapper. You are trying 4.0.1. right?

Or since you are in Thailand go rent a snorkel a have a swim :)

Hey Julus, If I can suggest u something .. Go talk with Boomje and his team they have worked on ILoL ( League of legend for mac ) and they use wineskin too and once a tike they have experimented fps drop/ lag spikes when playin league and now they fix it.

Just wrote on google , Ilol ou Boomje Mac Version u problably land on his official website !

I know ffps drop and lag spikes are from open beta but i think is worse on Mac with wineskin. Because my roomate playing on PC and got those lag when a witch is necro or lot of spamming spell ! but on mac is worse i got this. as playing solo.


I will try to lower my resolution .. i dont know why poe pnly suggest medium or high for graphic .. no low .. idc about graphics i just want to play without lag

Thanks, I found theirs patches but unfortunetly, they didn't helped. Seems like LoL had different cause of the fps drops...

Hello,

I've tried 4.0.1 on my macbook pro running 1.7.5. It works ok but I've got a big problem and a smaller one.
First the most annoying one: the left & right click seem 'bugged', I have to clic it 2 times for the game to register the move.

Second, the cmd+enter doesn't seem to work. I can cmd+tab once to get out of game but doesn't work to make it active fullscreen again.



Not related but I saw in a post that you don't know why people wouldn't upgrade to 1.8 coming from 1.7. Well I haven't upgraded yet. I don't want the OS to take even more RAM, even with 1.7, I have 8gb and 2gb are taken by mac os.


Thanks!

Hafuu

Edit: the mouse problem: it works when i log in, then after killing the first mobs the mouse glitches. There is like a delay.
