you’re on wine crossover 23.x
secure-lavenderOP•4mo ago
variable-lime•4mo ago
gta cannot run on that
secure-lavenderOP•4mo ago
variable-lime•4mo ago
it will only work on the paid version of crossover
secure-lavenderOP•4mo ago
alr, let me try whisky
i sent u the log
with whisky
eastern-cyan•4mo ago
again, it ONLY works with the paid version of crossover
it won't work with whisky
secure-lavenderOP•4mo ago
oh
variable-lime•4mo ago
I’ve seen like 2 people get it working but it’s been like really really iffy at best
secure-lavenderOP•4mo ago
but it says it works with whisky
variable-lime•4mo ago
not consistently
eastern-cyan•4mo ago
it worked before, since then, the user that reported it working said it doesn't work anymore
variable-lime•4mo ago
ough I see
secure-lavenderOP•4mo ago
alr where do i install crossover
variable-lime•4mo ago
it is a paid software
secure-lavenderOP•4mo ago

eastern-cyan•4mo ago

you need heroic to handle the epic DRM
secure-lavenderOP•4mo ago
if i buy the game on steam
eastern-cyan•4mo ago
if you buy on steam it should work, yes
secure-lavenderOP•4mo ago
and use whisky software
eastern-cyan•4mo ago
I don't think it works with whisky on steam, though the whisky site says it does https://docs.getwhisky.app/game-support/grand-theft-auto-5.html but it's the old instructions that doesn't seem to work anymore at least with heroic
variable-lime•4mo ago
I don’t believe it would yeah
come to think of it the last I saw of gta on Mac was a while back
eastern-cyan•4mo ago
the issue with mac is that there's not that many users and that much reliable support, a lot of information gets outdated really fast cause mac gaming doesn't catch up
secure-lavenderOP•4mo ago
im gonna try with crossover free trial
just to see if it works
variable-lime•4mo ago
i help as much as I can but most of what I do is based off of purely experience and not like actual testing
eastern-cyan•4mo ago
oh yeah, I mean, it's not a people problem, the platform was hostile for gaming and it's hard to find mac gamers in general
secure-lavenderOP•4mo ago
im just helping my friend
variable-lime•4mo ago
oh for sure, even to this day it’s still a bit of a joke how little apple cares for gaming on macs LOL
secure-lavenderOP•4mo ago
how do i create a new bottle_
pls help
The CrossOver bottle "bottle1" does not exist, can't launch!
eastern-cyan•4mo ago
you have to open crossover's UI
it has some buttons there to create a bottle
that's outside of heroic

variable-lime•4mo ago
do you have d3dmetal or dxvk turned on in crossover?
variable-lime•4mo ago
secure-lavenderOP•4mo ago

variable-lime•4mo ago
oh
gotchya
does it work now?
secure-lavenderOP•4mo ago
yes
there is no way i can play online right?
eastern-cyan•4mo ago
nope, online only works on windows
variable-lime•4mo ago
i mean a way exists but it runs genuinely horribly
secure-lavenderOP•4mo ago

if i buy the game on steam can i play online or do i still have the battleye thing
?
variable-lime•4mo ago

variable-lime•4mo ago
nnno
no you cant
secure-lavenderOP•4mo ago
bruh
battle eye patch when
inmagine having a legal gta v account and still have to bypass the anticheat
variable-lime•4mo ago
its a consequence of running the game through wine
xenial-black•4mo ago
you can only play online on windows
basically: only if rockstar allow it.
bypassing the anticheat also is generally grounds for ban so take care...
