Trying to run Control

Am trying to run Control via Heroic on M1 Pro, and the game shows it's launching but doesn't launch. The log file is attached https://0x0.st/8i-E.log

maybe try with whisky instead of gptk (behind the scenes it's gptk, but it creates a bottle for you and it shows platinum status for control https://docs.getwhisky.app/game-support/control-ultimate-edition.html)

I tried, and the game launches but it doesn't render properly. Like when inside the game and after the mono logue the shaders just go bonkers lol And when I tried it with heroic's whisky 2.3.4, it didn't launch the first time, but on the 2nd try it launched And after picking up an item it crashed šŸ˜‚

If you mean switcher on Whisky UI it will have no effect when launch game with Heroic. Try to add library overrides for d3d10core, d3d11, dxgi in wine config to enable DXVK Also some times using Crossover wine with installed DXVK on prefix may help

open winecfg in the game settings and go to libraries menu in the new library to override type in what the previous message said (eg. d3d10core) click add you could edit the override by clicking edit and then choose the order you could choose built in then native first if its for dxvk

try install homebrew to install moltenvk https://docs.brew.sh/Installation
Homebrew Documentation

Documentation for the missing package manager for macOS (or Linux).

Found instructions https://www.applegamingwiki.com/wiki/Control where required to rename the Control_DX12.exe to Control.exe to launch

Use whisky wine in heroic and turn off metal hud, both from heroic and if enabled in Mac itself That seems to solve the render issues I played for 2 hours without any problems It just doesn't seem to work when the show stats option is enabled
