![]() Then, starting with the most “upstream” device (for most people, that is their cable modem), start to turn things on. ![]() Shut down your computer and all your network devices. So let's start by resetting your local network: Jorgito, if you followed all of Windolin's "install" instructions correctly and as he wrote, your issue is most likely related to either permissions or your local network most likely your local network. Thank you for any guidance you can give me If I log out and try to start the launcher again the “installing pre reqs” message keeps coming up.ĭisplay= lG ultra gear 31.5 inches 1920x1080 (i made the resolution adjustments you posted) Again I’ve let that run for 30 min and no movement. If I close out the launcher and launch it again then that first phrase disappears and it says “installing pre-reqs”. After completing all the steps to make my bottle and start the install process, once I get to the LoTt launcher window it just states “loading launcher configuration” I let that run for up to 30 min and it doesn’t change. I have followed all the steps from your post and read all the other posts from people and it seems no one has had the issue I am having. Regardless, great job getting the game running on your machine. The reason your Mac runs the game so well is that, even though there are multiple translation layers involved, the SOC manages all the parallel tasks among its cores very well and allocates its available resources extremely efficiently – even so, the game itself does one thing at a time on the CPU, on just one of the CPU's cores. But the LOTRO client task itself uses only one core. All of that is getting spread out among your cores – the so-called "performance" cores, anyway, I don't know enough about how the Apple SOCs allocate tasks to the "performance" cores vs the "efficiency" cores to say how the latter are used for tasks like this. That is WINE performing its many API translation tasks in the background. If the LOTRO client is running you will see multiple instances of "wine64-preloader" in Activity Monitor. Your Mac is running many processes simultaneously even if you aren't running any user applications: Bring up Activity Monitor and you'll see them all, there will be at least dozens. Those graphs are showing you the load on each of your cores. Here is a link to a screenshot showing the CPU and GPU usage when playing. This was very interesting, I expected the other way around. (I think it was full HD medium settings): 110+ FPS! With Sync disabled, the FPS dropped to around 60 FPS, then back up to 110+ when enabling Vsync. Running through the courtyard of Minas Tirith: The laptop is a bit warm but completely silent. Running through Minas T.: 35-45 FPS at 1440x900 Ultra and 2x AA Running through Bree town: 35-60 FPS at 1440x900 Ultra and 2x AA Possibly Crossover is using multiple cores as one big CPU? I've read that LOTRO is a single core app, but when viewing the CPU and GPU History it's using 4 cores at around 50-80% and the GPU at around 80-90%. No manual changes in UserPreferences.ini or UserPreferences64.ini I did this since my external monitor is 60Hz but also to reduce the risk of overheating. Troubleshoot: Set FPS cap to 60 frames per second. Advanced graphics: Disable "Sync to refresh rate" to maximize FPSĬ. This is in order to enable quick alt-tab, if running in full screen the alt-tab takes ca 15 seconds.ī. Change from "full screen" to "full screen windowed". allow access to a certain macOS location or feature)Ī. If the screen goes all black, ALT TAB and check if macOS is showing the app security window (e.g. NOTE: The checkboxes selections are not displayed but click on the 64bit option. At the end of the long download, I had to close the launcher and start it again and then it asks for permissions to the Document folder and then completes.Ī. Click "Yes" to download high resolution data ![]() Complete the install wizard and allow it to launchį. In the new bottle, select to run a command and select lotrolive.exe. Download the LOTRO installer (lotrolive.exe) using Safari on your Mac and copy to the LOTRO bottleĮ. In the new bottle, "Install a Windows program" and type "DirectX for modern games" and install that.ĭ. This enables Crossover to translate DirectX -> Vulcan -> Metal (for optimal performance).Ĭ. Right click the new bottle and activate the DXVK back end. Create a new bottle with Windows 10 64bitī. MacBook Air M1 (8 core GPU), 8 GB, 512 GBĪ. Wanted to share these results, LOTRO is running great on my M1! ![]()
