macOS Compatibility
| Method | Rating | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| Native | Runs buttery smooth at 120 FPS with HDR.[1] | |
| Compatibility layer | ||
| CrossOver | Playable with CXPatcher.[2] Runs perfect with CXPatcher with D3DMetal and MSync Turned On, FPS around 110-120 and sometimes falls at 90 when there is much to render. Only encountered small lighting issues but they are disappearing fast.[3] | |
| Wine | Game Porting Toolkit - Crashes periodically every 10-30 minutes but runs smoothly with 40-60 FPS on medium-high settings. UPDATE: they say the DX11 version works fine, but I didn't check (you can switch to the DX11 version in Steam version settings) | |
| Virtualization | ||
| Parallels | Set to the lowest settings (except resolution 1400x900), the menu runs at 60 fps, maybe even 120 fps. The framerate in-game can reach up to 2 fps. |

- Comment: Playable, vanilla Crossover will crash at start or after first cutscene, can only run with CXPatcher and does it without any perceivable graphical glitches and with reasonable performance most of the time, supports controller and k/m. Turned on D3DMetal, MSync. When exiting a fullscreen playthrough, it can stay at black screen, so play with Borderless Fullscreen or CMD+option+ESC to force quit if the game freezes.

- Settings: Medium-High
- Framerate: 110-120fps
- Comment: Works perfect for me using the CXPatcher, might not work as good without it. D3DMetal and MSync is Turned on with Graphics around Medium-High. Recommend using Borderless Fullscreen and play with the settings what works good for you. As said above, there are some lighting issues inside the Police Station but those might be fixed with the tweaking of some settings in game.
