If you have any further questions let me know, With Bootcamp you won't have this at all as it's native Windows expect just everything to work without many issues the only limit is your current sys specs basicly. Just a little reminder if your playing around with Wine it can be very time consuming and also requires some technical insight to troubleshoot. I can't explain it, maybe it's isnt' real but just a feeling but some games seems to work much better and better fps on Wine for my feeling. Also if you are going to play around with both you will sometimes hit games and Skyrim is one of them where my feeling is that the game performance is much beter on Wine then on Windows native. I have been using Bootcamp in the past and did also many tests. I personaly don't like Bootcamp so I select my games to run on Wine. Arma II for example won't work at all on Wine even the game menu is a mess. You'll see then reports how good a game runs on Wine and also how bad or doesn't work at all, so you don't waste all your money. Each game your going to buy just google "WineHQ %gamename%. Lukcy enough Skyrim works flawless on Wine and runs very very well on my Imac with a i5 processor and only 512 video memory. Wine can be great, but also a pain in the ass. The negative thing is you have to dual boot each time, so you have to reboot and boot into Windows and next time you have to reboot and boot in to OSX. OSX 10.6.6 / Win7 Ultimate 64bit Via Bootcamp.To be sure things works fine best is to go for Bootcamp, you just run native Windows on your mac hardware at that point. (Seriously? Sata1 in late 2010? 5400RPM system drive? In an $900 PC? WTF Apple? FAIL!) The crappy factory Sata1 320Gb 5400 RPM HDD In the end, other then the scroll being fast, and installing mods a PITA, It was was better then PC lomo for stability. I might also add, NO color inversion or graphic glitches. that might be because my mac is on a 56" TV? It also looked a little more granular or pixelated then on my PC. Many times I overshot where I wanted to go. it was hyper fast and took some getting used to. (It's Good enough for HTPC and Testing Mac stuff for work) That and my Macs HDD is a 5400rpm Sata1 POS. That might be because I have not played Lomo on a mechanical hard drive in a while. The load screens were very slow compared to my PC. no lag whats so ever even at full settings and zoomed out. I had 122 trains and about 60 trucks and buses and 35 Trams. I played for about 6 hours yesterday on the Mac install. Screen shot at 11.25.05 AM.png (1.21 MiB) Downloaded 3 times If enough people need help, I can make a "How to install Lomo on OSX guide". if you have a PC also, adding mods would be much easier. Installing Mod packs was a minor challenge, but doable (note I'm playing the DK UP pack on Provo map in screenshot). The VM window was smooth with the mouse and i could do background stuff while i played. There is still the possibility of lag under those situations. I did NOT get into to HUGE complex networks in the short test. My end results was a very playable version of lomo. I was able to get Lomo installed and playing in about 15 min from start to finish. You can use the wineskin debug mode to add mods rather quickly. I selected wineskin over winebottler since wineskin has gaming in mind and was much easier to set up and add mods to.
