CrossOver Black Myth: Wukong / Mac Mini M4 16GB

Captured a bit of the gameplay, DX12 mode.

macOS 26.5, CO 26.2 + GPTK 4b1, frame gen is used.

Without frame gen it's 40fps on average and 28fps min according to the game built-in test with my settings and without screen recording.

Used settings shown in the end of the video.

PS: What is especially nice is that I played for 2+ hrs and so far have not noticed any issues with RAM. RAM pressure stayed stable during the whole play session and RAM usage did not increased noticeably.

Native Added macOS support to my pixel art Sokoban game about mining carts!

Upvotes

Hey r/macgaming!

I built a sokoban like videogame about mining carts and it now also supports MacOS!!

Game page: https://store.steampowered.com/app/3997420/Mine_Cart_Operator/

The game features 36 levels between two campaigns and gamepad support is included!

It is a small game, but I put good effort in it, hopefully people who enjoy puzzles will find fun in it :D.

If you play it, I would love to hear your thoughts about!

Discussion Are folks usually mobile or stationary while gaming?

3 Upvotes

I have a 16" M5Pro MBP and so far I've been doing some super light gaming on it via Apple Arcade mostly. I sit a desk all day with my work MacBook connected to a monitor and an external keyboard, so when I do game I like to move around. Couch, balcony, sofa, etc... whatever the vibe is that day. Aside from planes, I also tend to travel with my Mac anyways since I can watch Youtube and such, so 99% of the time it's with me. I do have a Switch 2 that's definitely more mobile and has been getting more use lately, but I prefer the larger 16" of my Mac (the eyes aren't what they used to be). I also tend to dock the switch if I'm playing something non-trivial since the size increase makes things easier to see. For example, with Hades 2 I basically only played docked at the end because I found the extra screen space really helpful. Most of my gaming these days is indie stuff like Hades 2.

I'd use my Mac more for gaming but I wonder about the tradeoffs of bigger screen vs the smaller and more mobile handheld. I know I probably just need to pick a game and play through it to really experience things for myself. I'm curious of others thoughts though so I wanted to ask if folks are moving around with their Macs while gaming, or if you find yourself more so stationary? Are you taking it with you when you travel? When I bought my Mac I did get the charging extension cable, so being near an outlet is not the biggest limitation for me in my apartment.

Help Help with game cursor bugging out

2 Upvotes

Hey so I have this issue im on a Mac Air 13 in 2025 M4 model.
whenever I try to load the game, it just fixes the in game cursor to a small box that is not the actual size of my game window. I've tried literally everything that was supposedly a fix like, lowering my screen resolution (i have gone through every single possible one on my mac display settings), and even to things like using the launch properties through steam. Nothing works. I cannot make my physical game window smaller, and the in game cursor box does not change and I don't know how to make it the same size as my window.
please help!!!

CrossOver Crossover vs Parallels

2 Upvotes

Im debating switching across to Crossover to get a couple of new games on Steam (JP Evo 3 and Warhammer 40K IV when it releases)

Would these run well on my Parallels 26 running Windows 11 or is it worth installing and replacing with Crossover to get the full best gameplay on my M1 Macbook Pro?

Also I have some old games which I still play (Battle for Middle Earth 1 & 2), could I keep these and play on Crossover if I wanted to?

Sorry I know loads of questions just want to know your opinions

CrossOver Fling Trainers on Crossover

2 Upvotes

I haven't found much on this but has anybody been able to run fling trainers inside Crossover bottles? Steps I've tried so far:

  1. ChooChoo to launch the game and the trainer - didn't work

  2. Launched the trainer first and then the game and vice versa, didn't work. The trainer doesn't see the game process.

Native [Dev] Looking for Minecraft players on Mac to test a free session diagnostics app

Thumbnail
gallery
Upvotes

Hi everyone I’m the developer of CloudBoost, a native macOS menu bar app, and I’m looking for Minecraft players on Mac who are willing to test it.

Minecraft sessions can feel unstable for very different reasons: network jitter, packet loss, background activity, thermal pressure or local system load.

CloudBoost does not modify Minecraft, inject code, bypass anti-cheat or promise artificial FPS gains. It observes the Mac side of the session and helps show what was happening when a spike or stutter occurred.

I’m especially looking for feedback from:

• Apple Silicon and Intel Mac users • Vanilla and modded Minecraft players • Wi-Fi and Ethernet users • People experiencing multiplayer lag or local stuttering

The core version is free. If you test it, I’d appreciate knowing:

• Mac model and macOS version • Minecraft launcher/version • Wi-Fi or Ethernet • Whether the issue felt like FPS stutter or network lag • Whether the final result was understandable

Official website and download: https://victorbrandaao.github.io/CloudBoost/

Full disclosure: I’m the developer of CloudBoost. There is an optional paid PRO version, but the basic session test is free.
