  1. Verified by User:cake on 2022-03-01
    Device: 2021 MBP 16, M1 Max, 32GB
    OS: Mac OS Monterey 12.2.1
    Method: Crossover 21.1
    Store: Steam
    Comment: Starts, but gets stuck on loading screen upon starting a game. Error occurs after all shaders appear to have successfully loaded
  2. Verified by User:OrangeT on 2023-11-13
    Device: 2020 MB Air M1, 16GB
    OS: Mac OS Sonoma 14
    Method: Crossover 23.6 + CXPatcher. DXVK/D3DMetal modes
    Resolution: 1440х900
    Settings: Medium
    Framerate: 30-50
    Comment: DXVK: Runs well on medium settings with no visual glitches. About 30-50 fps until M1 chip starts throttling due to overheating (in about 2 minutes), then fps drops by aproximately 25% depending on the scene. D3DMetal: definitely a more performant option with stable and higher fps. Graphics issues mentioned below can be fixed by using a CXPatcher.
