Constant graphics issues on Mac
" Which points to the problem most likely not being the Mac version itself, but the Vulkan backend which Mac uses (via MoltenVK). It's not just messing up of graphics though, it ends up with you being able to telegraph where things are going to come from by following the lines visible in the last image of the original post. |

This has been happening to me since I think April. Worse is I will have game freezes, 20 seconds sometimes usually in certain zones. And I play HC so...
Everything was running fine before then. Macbook air high sierra. Came on here to see if upgrading OS would fix things but I guess not. |

" HC - wow. I thought it was scary enough in softcore :-) Unfortunately upgrading won't help. Updated to Ventura yesterday on an M1 Macbook Pro. Update went fine. POE client still works but the graphics issues are still there. Everything seems to point towards Molten VK version GGG is using. I don't know why they won't update it to more current. Everything was fine until 3.17.4 when things started to break. When they fix the issue I'll start buying stuff again. All we can do is encourage people to add to this case to raise a separate one. Only volume gets GGG attention and priority. |

I'm having the same problems. Playing on a M1 Macbook Air. Worked fine till april orso and then it became unplaybable due to the graphic issues... So lame GGG takes ages for fixes and ruined the Mac playability after it was just out for a few months -.-
They need to do an in general overhaul of the whole graphics. Well maybe in Poe 2 |

A new level of difficulty introduced yesterday in Strand T16. Maybe it's a pre-release of Ruthless ...

Hi,
Just started playin POE and I experienced minor glitches at the very beginning of play but as I progressed they got worse. Now I'm seeing the same thing you are. The forest in the second act and levels beyond are almost unplayable. My system is an iMac 27, 5K from 2017, 4.2 GHz quad core i7, 16GB of ram, Radeon Pro 575 with 4 GB. Love the game, can't enjoy the experience when you can't play. Will most likely delete it even though I don't want to :) To that end, I will post this to them to add to the volume of requests. |

And still no word on this in the new Patchnotes.
When will it be solved? Is there any1 looking into at GGG?? Can we have an answer? |
|
" Sadly the only sure thing is total silence from GGG on this. This has been happening since 3.17.4. The 4th league since this is coming up. Maybe a mention on Reditt or Twitter, though both will result in predictable responses of "play on a PC ..." at best or the usual "sucks to be you" toxic garbage. Keep posting here though. The more people do the more attention it may eventually attract to get a resolution |

Having that same issue here. Hard to fight a boss when you can't see it...
