[OSX] Unofficial Path of Exile port - 30/12/2018 status update
" Had this a few times, quite annoying. Don't try resizing the window, but instead try to change the resolution like that. The cursor is a bit off, and the buttons don't have the right writing on them. I had to press the empty button between Quit and Options to get into the options. Then use the resolution dropdown menu to change to a normal resolution. It sometimes goes back to that small window on launch, so it's quite annoying, and I'm sure there's a better solution than this. |

" Another solution is to edit the production_Config.ini file. See FAQ for details. |

" Because, welcome to Apple. think different does not mean different is better. The worst lags are caused by OSX and only way to fix it is not use it. On High details the summon skelleton skill lags game for 7,8s, from which 6s is OSX loading it to memory (this is done in fraction of second on windows and linux), also it is the same reason for long loading times. the remaining time is GPU driver trying to make the game sync again. I've already opened bug at Apple with a test case about year ago, and they closed it as duplicate. So they know about it, but if or when it does get fixed is in the stars... And I can't ask GGG devs to don't use map* functions in the game, just because of few Mac users... |

" It's funny, I got a mac specifically because the wow mac client was way better, smoother, responded better, and had built in video capture. With mac's dominating the home PC sales market in recent years you would think a mac client would be higher on the list of things to work on. Those few current mac users "willing to give this port a try, and thanks for working on it", might be a bigger group if it preformed like D3 does on the mac which is very much refined, smooth, etc. Hopefully in the future, we can only hope. That said, this all wouldn't really be a problem if bootcamp worked on 3TB drives :( Thanks,

" t's funny, I got a mac specifically because the wow mac client was way better, smoother, responded better, and had built in video capture. Don't compare native ports. WoW and D3 was made natively for Mac. Also Blizzard have a lot of resources to spare on mac version of game. With mac's dominating the home PC sales market Because some thinks that tablets are PC, also this apply only on USA market, not Europe. Those few current mac users "willing to give this port a try, and thanks for working on it", might be a bigger group if it preformed like D3 does on the mac which is very much refined, smooth, etc. According downloads, there are about 4000 mac PoE gamers... which is less than 4% of all PoE gamers... (not so much big anomyre. eh)? Last edited by julus#1066 on Feb 17, 2013, 10:26:50 PM

" Oh, I wasn't comparing the wine port to a native port. I was implying that if there was a native port I think the population would be much higher than 4%. Trying to say it would be worth the development time, in my opinion. It would be interesting to see what the mac D3 population was. I bet we would see a smiler spread. I agree, Blizzard has many many more resources to throw at the games I don't expect that here. This game still remains much more fun to play even with the bugs and not as smooth interface than D3 despite that giant budget Blizzard had. Thanks,

Hi, amazing job with the mac port, loving this game so far! The game runs fine when i play by myself, some lags here and there but it is bearable. The lag increases whenever theres too many monsters or spell animations. Whenever i party with someone though (doesn't matter if its 1 player or 5 players), the lag increases tremendously and the program always crashes. I didn't mind playing the game by myself up until cruel act 3, where i desperately need to party to beat piety.
I've been searching through the forums for a while now to see if i can find a fix but i dont really understand most of what im seeing. This is what pops up when the game crashes and i click show details: Unhandled exception: page fault on write access to 0x00000004 in 32-bit code (0x491a9602).

" seems like wine cant cope with huge lag and crashes, put details on minimum possible, or try to use 3.8 wrapper if there is any improvment. |
|
" Details are at the most minimal, vsync, post processing and screen shake are off, and the drop downs are at the lowest it can be. Im using a macbook pro 13". Im also using the port v4.0.2, i will try v3.8 and see how that goes. Processor 2.5 GHz Intel Core i5 Memory 4 GB 1600 MHz DDR3 Graphics Intel HD Graphics 4000 512 MB Software OS X 10.8.2 |
