Reddit Crossover Mac Steam

Posted on

Gamers have a reason to rejoice now that Apple is getting on board with the VR and AR bandwagon via their eGPU development kit. No longer are desktop GPUs the realm of PC enthusiasts and old cheese grater style Mac Pros. With full fledged GPU power on Mac, you can now also develop and game on those same Macs too.

With Apple's new push towards VR and AR development, the GPU hardware is better up to the task of not only gaming on Macs, but streaming those games to other Macs and PCs in your own home. For example, let's say you have a brand new 5K iMac with a Thunderbolt 3 connection to an eGPU with an AMD RX 580 sitting in your home office. That iMac might be a pretty decent machine to game on but perhaps it doesn't have the best seating or perhaps the view from your home office leaves something to be desired. Wouldn't it be great if you could use the power of that iMac to play games but have the mobility of a laptop so that you can sit and play anywhere in your home? You can do just that using Valve's In-Home Streaming on Steam. Here's how you get started!

Wine (originally an acronym for 'Wine Is Not an Emulator') is a compatibility layer capable of running Windows applications on several POSIX-compliant operating systems, such as Linux, Mac OSX, & BSD.

This works in most cases, where the issue is originated due to a system corruption.

Install Steam

The beauty of Steam is that it runs on Windows, macOS and Linux. Although not all games will run natively on all platforms, you CAN stream a game to ANY platform regardless of the OS (so long and the computer streaming the game can run it natively). We need to first install Steam on all of the computers you want to stream from and to play on.

  1. Go to https://store.steampowered.com/.
  2. Click on Install Steam.

  3. Click on Install Steam Now. This will start to download the installer file that will be placed in downloads on your Mac.

  4. Navigate to your downloads and double-click steam.dmg.
  5. Agree to the terms of service.

  6. Drag Steam to the Applications folder.

  7. Start Steam and allow it to update.
  8. Log in to your account or create a new Steam account. (If you are new to Steam, check out the store and get some awesome games. Many are even free!)
  9. Repeat the installation on all other participating computers you want to use.

Set up your streaming server

Ideally, you'll want to have your most powerful computer running as the streaming server. In my case I'm using a 2014 5K iMac with an AMD RADEON m295x 4Gb GPU. Not bad for my needs and much more powerful than my MacBook Air from 2011! Secondly, you'll want to have the fastest network accessibility that you have available so you should also make certain that your streaming server is connected via ethernet cable to your router. Once that's set up, you can configure the In-Home Streaming service.

  1. Start Steam.
  2. Select In-Home Streaming from the sidebar.
  3. Make certain that Enable Streaming is checked.
  4. Click ADVANCED HOST OPTIONS.
  5. If you have an NVIDIA GPU, check Use NVFBC on NVIDIA GPU.
  6. Check Prioritize network traffic if you have a modern router that supports traffic shaping.

We're not quite done but we need to initiate a game via streaming from a client computer.

Dialogue Contour features pitch correction processing that is tailored to speech and designed to adjust the inflection of words within a phrase of dialogue that may not match or flow correctly with the rest of the dialogue in the clip.

  1. On the client computer, select a downloaded and installed game from the sidebar.
  2. Click STREAM next to the game you plan to play.

  3. You'll be prompted that you're about to stream a game. Click OK.

  4. You'll be prompted that you need to complete some additional driver installation on your server. Click OK.

There's still more to do on the streaming server again.

  1. Now go back to your streaming server. You'll be prompted install a Gamepad Driver Update. Click Install.
  2. Click Continue.

  3. Click Install.

  4. Enter your password.
  5. You'll then be prompted to install Ambrosia Audio Support. Click Continue.
  6. Click Install.
  7. Enter your password.
  8. Click Restart.

If your installation fails, it will be likely due to macOS Security and Privacy settings. If this happens do the following.

  1. Go into System Preferences.
  2. Select Security & Privacy.
  3. Select the General tab.
  4. Towards the bottom, you'll see System software from developer 'Valve Corporation' was blocked from loading. Click **Allow.

Get ready to play on your client!

Finally, all of our setup is ready to be enjoyed!

  1. Make certain your streaming server computer is on and Steam is running on it.
  2. On the computer you want to play on, start Steam as well.
  3. Select the game you want to play from the sidebar.
  4. Click Stream.
  5. Start playing!

I've found that if my stream server computer is connected to my router with an ethernet cable, then I can get a high fidelity gameplay even with a laptop that is only WiFi connected. If you run into slow streams, you can change some parameters on the client side or simple connect your client streaming computer to your router also with an ethernet cable.

Final thoughts.

Depending on the type of games you play, streaming may be a deal breaker for you. Although the response time (latency) and visual quality is very good, some fast twitch first person shooter games may affect your gameplay. Other than that, I love that I need only one beefy machine to play my games from and still be able to enjoy my lounger while I do so. What about you? Is streaming something that interests you?

Apple reminds us all that 'creativity goes on' in new YouTube video

Apple's latest YouTube video knows just how to tug at the heartstrings.

Star Wars: The Old Republic made a lot of noise when it first came out in 2011. It wasn’t only a huge and ambitious MMORPG, it was also a brand-new Star Wars game that promised to be bigger than any Star Wars game before it.

Based on estimates, Star Wars: The Old Republic (or SW: TOR, as the kids like to call it) is one of the most expensive games ever made. It also became the “fastest-growing MMO ever” when it reached 1 million subscribers within three days of its launch. Mac gamers, unfortunately, had to watch all of it from the sidelines, as the game was only released for Windows.

But then in January 2012, BioWare’s co-founders publicly stated that a Mac version of the game was on the table. Is SW: TOR ever coming to Mac? But even if it does, wouldn’t you be better off with one of the best MMORPG Mac games?

Is Star Wars: The Old Republic ever coming to Mac?

During an interview with Massively in January 2012, BioWare co-founders Ray Muzyka and Greg Zeschuk, had this to say about a Mac version:

We know there’s a big Mac audience of BioWare fans… We know that’s an important and large audience. And we want to serve that audience.

Regarding a concrete time table, they added:

That’s definitely one of the things we’re looking at next. We want to get this launch under our belt and everything stabilized and happy, and then we’ll look at other platforms, and that’s obviously one of the first ones.

That made us hopeful but since that interview, both Muzyka and Zeschuk left BioWare, and not a single comment or statement regarding SW: TOR for Mac has been given.

Some claim a Mac port never happened because it wouldn’t be worth BioWare’s time. Looking at all the forum posts about this online, most notably The Old Republic‘s with 870 comments and Mac Rumors’ with 182,000 views, I beg to differ.

Either way, it’s already 2019 and it seems virtually impossible that SW: TOR for Mac ever happens.

How to play Star Wars: The Old Republic on Mac

A lack of a Mac version doesn’t mean SW: TOR can’t be played on Mac. It just means you’ll need Windows or another third-party tool. As you probably know, there are several ways to play Windows games on Mac.

So the question isn’t whether or not you can play SW: TOR on Mac. The question is how:

[table “151” not found /]

Bootcamp and Parallels are both straightforward methods. Wine can be a little trickier but this Reddit guide is an excellent starting point if you’re willing to go that route. No matter what method you chose, make sure your Mac meets the game’s official Windows system requirements:

  • Processor: Intel Core 2 Duo 2.0GHz or better
  • Operating System: Windows 7 or later
  • RAM: 3GB RAM
  • Graphics: 1GB RAM and support for Shader 3.0 such as Intel HD 3000 or better, AMD Radeon HD 7450, Nvidia GeForce 610 or better.

Running SW: TOR does require an extra effort, and after all these years, one has to wonder: Is it the best MMO you could be playing on your Mac?

Top SWTOR Mac alternatives

MMOs is the one genre where MacOS shines. MacOS doesn’t have all of the MMOs available on Windows but it certainly has the top ones. We’ve covered all the best MMORPGs for Mac, including premium and free-to-play ones.

There are too many excellent choices to mention them all, but if I had to recommend a few, these are our favorites:

World of Warcraft

World of Warcraft (WoW) is still the best MMO out there. It receives excellent Expansions, which even after all these years, manage to reinvent the game. Battle for Azeroth, the game’s latest Expansion, was somewhat criticized but Blizzard has been hard at work releasing patches to improve it.

Blizzard is definitely willing to go the extra mile and that’s why World of Warcraft is still the best.

The Elder Scrolls Online

The Elder Scrolls Online is a somewhat recent MMO that was also supposed to dethrone WoW but couldn’t. Nonetheless, it’s still a great MMO and the only Elder Scrolls game on Mac.

The same can be said about Final Fantasy 14, an MMO that might not be as good as WoW but still a great choice for Final Fantasy and anime fans.

If I had to recommend a free-to-play MMO, I would hesitate between The Lord of the Rings Online and Guild Wars 2, both excellent and generous in the amount of content you can enjoy without having to pay a dime.
