- Hello Just bought witcher 1 for mac osx the game will not launch. After I click play in steam an icon bounces on the dock for a moment and then disappears. The game then says that it had to 'quit unexpectedly'. I tried verifying the cache of game files, and steam told me those files were just fine. What can I do now? My computer meets the requirements but just in case I've got a Nvidia 9400.
- Mar 16, 2020 Steam is by far the biggest gaming platform in the World. Just a few days ago, I broke yet another record: 20 Million concurrent players. On top of that, it’s the place with the most Mac games available. 10,543 Mac games at the time of this writing. But as Steam Spy founder, Sergey Galyonkin, pointed out, too many new Steam games get released.

Windows games and applications can’t be run on MacOS! The Mac version of Steam can be installed on MacOS, but only the Mac-compatible games will download, install and run on your Mac. At the time this post was written the release of XQuartz was version 2.7.11. It will work on Mac OS X Snow Leopard (version 10.6.x) or later, up to and including OS X Mountain Lion (version 10.8.x). Download XQuartz using the following link: XQuartz v2.7.11 (ca. 75.9 MB) The latest release of XQuartz, however, is version 2.8.1.
I must admit I'm quite confused by Your response - current PlayOnMac release 2.4.5 doesn't provide/include any XQuartz stuff by itself - it just downloads and installs the standard XQuartz distribution if none is found in the system.

Right, but I'm still hoping for some minimalistic solution like scaled down (minimal) XQuartz edition bundled right in PlayOnMac like it's done in Wineskin for example. Standard XQuartz distribution is quite big and I don't really need it for example. Actually I skipped the XQuartz installation in PlayOnMac and just use the Apple's X11 server as I use pretty simple apps when it comes to graphics. I understand it might not be a sufficient for gaming etc, but it's not really my case.
Also when it comes to additional stuff downloaded on first PlayOnMac startup - could You just write some instructions for how to download and install all these things manually if You can't bundle it into PlayOnMac? This is the case of additional fonts for example.
It's not really difficult so I believe there shouldn't be a big problem with that and having instructions for offline PlayOnMac installation may be handy.
Thank You - and keep up the good work.
The XQuartz project is an open-source effort to develop a version of the X.Org X Window System that runs on macOS. Together with supporting libraries and applications, it forms the X11.app that Apple shipped with OS X versions 10.5 through 10.7.

Important Info for 10.5 Users
OS X Software Updates have included some of the work done by the XQuartz project, but for various reasons, Apple cannot ship the latest and greatest version offered by the XQuartz site. Since the XQuartz X11 package clobbers Apple's X11.app, their software update will clobber the XQuartz X11 package. Because of this, you may experience conflicts after doing a Software Update from Apple. Please re-install the latest XQuartz X11 release for Leopard after installing a system software update to OS X 10.5.x Leopard. Novatron iamm ntr82 firmware update.
