Even if they do, they would not be able to force instance owners to update to the closed version. And people would take over the last available open source version and fork it. Also, a closed and open source version could co-exist, since the api is open.

Just subscribed, consider yourself a promoter as well as creator.

Yeah things have improved a lot! And emulators like yuzu being open source really helps.

Yeah! If there’s too much attention from US companies the instances related to piracy can just move. I’m wondering what’s the law for US residents who host their website in another country, do they still have to respect US laws?

Oh damn, sorry, yeah, makes sense to link locally. Just changed it.

It’s a “sarcasm” symbol, but it basically boils down to “just joking around”. Spanish speakers also use (?) For the same purpose

I think I was running at native resolution, which is much less than what you’re running at.

Edit: Ok, I actually tried running it again, on 1080p, and it’s faster than I remember, maybe there was some optimization along the way or something happened. I still get really bad frame drops when the temperature drops. It runs at 45fps until it drops to 10fps for like 10/15 seconds while the temperature drops.

I actually checked cpu and gpu usage, and the cpu is not max at all, but the gpu is at 100% all the time, that might mean that a faster cpu might indeed be useful. Maybe at around 45fps it starts to become cpu bound?

Edit 2: on native resolution it runs at 30fps, and drops to 4fps when temperature drops.

Edit 3: Running at 960x600 resolution keeps it running at 50fps, even when the temperature drops. GPU usage is still at maximum.

Edit 4: Found the culprit. Global illumination is the setting that made the fps drop so hard when temperature drops. Can you check if it happens for you as well on m2 ultra?

I’d love for apple to keep improving rosetta 2 somehow, games which run on metal+x86 translation are still very slow. But I think it contradicts their objectives, they want native/real support, and are only providing this tools to help the transition, not to replace it.

That’s the one I have! And it only runs to around 30fps, with marked slow downs when the temperature drops, it’s barely playable. I’m not going to upgrade to an m2 max macbook, but I was just hoping a possible m3 max might be good enough for the type of games I’m interested and that I would not need a gaming pc, so I wanted to see the improvement from m1 to m2.
