Boxer works on M1 chips as well, and so does DOSBox-X. I don't own an M1 Mac of any type, but I am curious about them.īoxer does support 64-bit, so it's unfortunate GOG switched to DOSBox (though it barely matters since it's trivial to add DOS games to Boxer on your own). I assume Apple had some kind of translation layer or software that allowed 64 bit capable X-64/X86 code to run on M1, they did that when they transitioned from PowerPC to Intel, remember Rozetta? I guess I need to do more research. I suppose Allun Bestor or somebody else has updated the app to make it 64 bit capable. I didn't realise Boxer had been updated to be 64 bit compatible, that demonstrates how out of the loop I am. The Mac version of DXVK is still a work in progress but at least some DX11 games like Witcher 3 run on M1 Macs very well.
(At least theoretically the X64 -> ARM transcoder still has the occasional bug.) Wine also works on M1 Macs so you can play Windows games that way if you wanted, since Boot Camp no longer works. Any 64-bit Mac game should work on M1s whether the game has native support or not. Why let facts stand in the way of ignorant bias, eh?īoxer does support 64-bit, so it's unfortunate GOG switched to DOSBox (though it barely matters since it's trivial to add DOS games to Boxer on your own).

(You can see them in the Windows system requirements, and yeah that makes no sense.)īoxer does support 64-bit, so it's unfortunate GOG switched to DOSBox (though it barely matters since it's trivial to add DOS games to Boxer on your own). The only significant change is that they no longer list 32-bit Mac games, though they're still here. Why let facts stand in the way of ignorant bias, eh?Īnyway, to actually answer the question, the state of Mac gaming on GOG is about the same as it's always been. Slowly squeezing out anything that isn't specifically them.
Darvond: It's less about what GOG thinks/does/stance, and more the fact that Apple has turned their ecosystem into a closed hydraulic press.
