Guardians of the Galaxy on MacOS "No suitable D3D12 adapter found."
Setup:
- M1 Pro Macbook Pro
- Heroic Games Launcher
- Guardians of the Galaxy game from Epic Games
- Using exactly the instructions outlined here: https://www.reddit.com/r/macgaming/comments/18z45zk/marvels_guardians_of_the_galaxy/
Issue:
- Running the game with the Wine/GPTK setup as outlined in the link above displays an error dialog box, "No suitable D3D12 adapter found. Please check minimum requirements specified on the store page."
I've tried:
- Doing the gate keeper terminal command in the post
- Using Whiskey and Wine Crossover as the "Crossover/Wine version" in the game settings
- Using the "-sharedvram" game argument in "Game Arguments"
Any ideas of how to get this working? Supposedly other people with Apple Silicon macs are able to run the game using the exact same setup as per the Reddit post.

Any ideas? Looks like the community here is mostly just Windows/Linux now that I’m looking closer, but I appreciate any help I can get 😅

There's another thread in macgaming that shows how to get the game running

Oh sweet! Could you post a link? I can’t seem to find it, all the other threads don’t discuss the D3D12 adapter error, at least not that I can see

Ah, right I’ve watched this video already (just reiterates the instructions in the Reddit post), still get the d3d12 adapter error
mute-gold•17mo ago
Then you’ve done something incorrectly as I can confirm that the game does indeed work

Tried uninstalling and reinstalling everything three times now, same error :/ I’ve seen some people on Windows fix the issue by adding the -sharedvram parameter to the startup options but that doesn’t do anything for me

Getting this on linux too, which is strange as I'vve already launched the game and reached the main menu weeks ago, but I think there has been an nvvidia driver update in between. 😦
