Maybe I'm just not knowledgable enough to troubleshoot but I've had considerably more success in getting a wider array of games to simply run on Whisky than Crossover and so I consider it my go-to Unfortunately my main problem is that I've been a PC gamer for many many years and I like my online shooters, but it seems like the chances are slim of getting around a lot of games' anticheat. Fingers are crossed that more games get ported to Mac with their new push for the porting toolkits and deals they've made but seeing as how they don't consider it a priority I'll just have to deal with it
Why is it failing with Crossover? For Whiskyi - It updated to GPTK 1.1 (and later 1.1.01 I think? I got another update since this video recorded) -- and I use D3DMetal -- I believe its a DX12 game so you have to use GPTK aka D3DMetal - Whisky or Crossovers. Turning on D3DMetal (GPTK to run DX12) will turn off DXVK (Vulkan translation layer to run DX11/Vulkan games)
@@BlendlogicTech Nice, I just figured that out. Have you had any luck getting a controller to work? Steam recognizes my XBOX controller, but I can't get it to work. Mouse & keyboard is the only way so far.

@@BlendlogicTech thank you I was thinking of trying them anyway but it’s not performance as it’s the m3 pro and with the mettle overlay (when it works) I can get around 120fps and it seems stuttery, it feels like there’s half frames here and there and then every 3-5 seconds there’s a hitch
Thanks for making videos about this, there's really not much people doing it. Have you tried Fortnite? I'm looking forward to test it but have to free up some storage first
Before on M1 I tested it but later found out that its not parity with Windows. Have not tested crossovers version but heard you cannot run that because of Anti-Cheat. I may get an M1 Max refurb or M3 max.... thining about the youtube and long term device -- may test it out next year
Could you get the controller working? I love this game and I was so excited when it ran on my MacBook but my Xbox controller just doesn’t work. Any fix?
I found a way, you need to go to the “bottle configuration” section in Whiskey => enable Meta HUD and Trace Metal In the terminal "/bin/launchctl setenv MTL_HUD_ENABLED 1"
Do you know how to fix the error that come up when you running game that requires access to Xbox Live account and the pop-up page doesn't load properly ?

Definitely anti-cheat is holding it back. Need Apple to continue developing the dx to vulkan translation layer or what not
Great video! What settings are you using with Whisky? DXVK on or off? MSync on or off? I want to run Miles Morales, it fails at the CrossOver side.

Curious how you got this to work in Whisky? For me, it's saying Windows 10 version 1909 (build 18633) or later. You have a workaround for this?
Yes there’s a registry edit you can do in wine config options of whisky
@@BlendlogicTech Nice, I just figured that out. Have you had any luck getting a controller to work? Steam recognizes my XBOX controller, but I can't get it to work. Mouse & keyboard is the only way so far.

How did you open the performance stats on the top right?
“bottle configuration” section in Whiskey => enable Meta HUD and Trace Metal
In the terminal "/bin/launchctl setenv MTL_HUD_ENABLED 1"
Hello, wich one have a better performance Whisky or Crossover +Cxpatcher ?
People say Crossovers has specific bottle installers that fix some stuff - but generally Whisky uses GPTK which should be decent for most games
DirectX 9 games like Team Fortress 2 and Left 4 Dead are running terribly bad. Is there a setting to run them nicely?
Try turning d3d off and using DVDX
@@BlendlogicTech How about the DVDX async setting and enhanced sync none esync msync?
I’ve seen comments/ threads say msync works
How are you playing Spider-Man?
It won't work on Whiskey.
On CrossOver the controller is all messed up.
Uhhhh whisky and crossover worked for me but I was mouse and keyboard
Majority of games I play using whisky seems to be very stuttery, any idea why?
Try comparing it with crossover they give you a two week trial. If crossover has stutters as well it’s just the performance your machine has

will CS2 work on whisky?
Yea but there’s some game adjustments specifically for CS2 that work for crossover
how do i install GPTK, whisky forces me to use Wine instead? what's the difference?
It should install GPTK for DX12 games . It uses Whisky Wine AND GPTK
Can I run cracked games using whiskey or crossover?
I think so???? I know back in the day - GTAV Cracked ran better than the steam version for Crossover
@@BlendlogicTech how do you play cracked version of games via crossover/whiskey?
Tell me how you measure FPS in Whisky? MSI Afterburner is not correct start

Yes that is it - or in Whisky you can change the config as you mentioned -
