Wow Mac OS X

As many OSx86 users tend to remove Apples macs only processes and components, they can even get slightly more performance with similar hardware than real macs.

Wow Mac OS X

The latest release of Mac OS X is listed at Apples web site: (after 10.11: ).

Issues to be aware of include: differences in the effect of certain video settings on system performance, trouble finding equivalent hardware to that available to the PC player, and the availability of in-game native UI Video Recording exclusive to Mac players.

Input devices other than a mouse and keyboard are not supported.

Shortly before the release of Cataclysm patch 4.0.1 was released in which PowerPC processor based Macs were no longer supported.

This update indicated the removal of PowerPC support from World of Warcraft.

In fact, all UI Addons are built on an XMLLua scripting system built into WoW and cannot contain native code, so they will run on any platform World of Warcraft runs on Windows or Mac.

Simply place an addon in your World of WarcraftInterfaceAddOns folder and restart WoW.

Switching You can copy that entire folder from a Windows box to get all your addons onto your new Mac.

Copy the World of WarcraftWTF folder too and youll get all your macros, chat window settings, and addon saved data, too.).

For users that play on different machines, it can be beneficial to move the InterfaceAddOns and InterfaceWTF folder to an online cloud service, such as DropBox with a symbolic link in the original ApplicationsWarcraft.

This will allow multiple machines to have the same UI, shared through a cloud service.

Some Addon authors like to package their products as self-extractinginstalling.exe files; while the addon will work on a Mac, the.exe file will not.

If you find an addon that is only available in an.exe, ask the author for a.zip version most will be happy to oblige.

The addons themselves will work on the Mac, but you will need a Mac version of the external program to get the functionality it provides.

Note: use of third-party programs in conjunction with World of Warcraft may violate the Terms of Service.).

Very few people will click an.exe file that comes in an unsolicited email, but the same cannot be said for.exe files that purport to be self-extricating wow addons.

Let the player beware, though this is less of a Mac issue and more about prudent personal security.

Furthermore, Accelerate Your Mac has a page dedicated to user reports on WoW performance on individual Macs.

Note that buying RAM from Apple is notoriously expensive, 3rd party sellers have been known to sell at 110th Apples price.

The Anisotropic Filtering and Multisampling settings can also also drastically lower framerate.

Until the release of Leopard (available October 26th, 2007) or OS X 10.4.11 (either of which may or may not include these OpenGL features for the PowerPC), or in lieu of upgrading to an Intel-based Mac, PowerPC users may wish to try the following tweak.

An experimental version of this technology can be enabled by typing console GLFaster 2 in-game its even faster but can sometimes lead to noticeable mouseUI lag.

Type console GLFaster 1 to return to the normal setting, or console GLFaster 0 to turn it off entirely.).

Intel-ready programs are usually available as Universal Binaries, programs that can run on PPC and Intel.

Owners of such models will benefit from running World of Warcraft under Microsoft Windows using Apples Boot Camp utility, but requires a purchase of Windows.

The level of compatibility depends on the hardware used but in most cases is stable due to the recent modifications to OS Xs kernel and drivers.

Besides this, no bug related only to hackintoshes has been reported.
