Proton as it seems right now is better in terms of performance but this porting tool is more or less 1 day old.

Both are based on Wine at the end and the actual difference between proton and crossover was that crossover worked worse due to lacking features in metal which is a non issue on Linux that does support Vulcan directly.

Also this is mainly based on crossover code which is pretty much proton for Mac. Why would Apple want a separate codebase? The reason would be to have optimized code and not only have a “good enough” version of that game…Īpple is obviously pretty aware it will be used like proton tho. This isn't a Proton for Mac as the title of the thread suggests. They want games to be ported to macOS fully and are using this to assist developers in porting it. Well yes considering the limitations of this translation layer. That Apple wants developers to maintain a seperate Mac codebase for games. Is this their way to still push developers to rather port their games to the Mac instead of just optimizing them for the translation layer like we see in Linux? What does that say about apples underlying motivation there? apples terms are normally much more rock solid so I expect this is intent inlay here to make it legaly grey but ok for you to play around yourself but grey enough that someone else cant wrap this up and sell it. Is it only a violation of the license form apple if you use a pirated game or would a judge consider it a violation if you use a game you purchased a copy of and thus own but you did not make. Yer side project things like this for sure will be fine and apple does not mind, but if valve were to bundle this in steam that would be a breach of the terms, if they made steam pull it form apple on users request then it comes down to the term `test/evaluate` and the term`your games` what that means.

The DXMetal lib is not, this is a bundle you pull from apple.
