- Device: MacBook Air M3 8GB 8core CPU 8core GPU
- OS: macOS Sequoia 15.3.1
- Method: Crossover 25.0 (25.0.0.38553)
- Game version: latest 1491.50. older versions will not run!
- Store: Direct Install from DODI(yes, there is a reason for this. read the comment below.)
- Resolution: 1280x832
- Settings: in crossover D3DMetal and MSync is turned on. In game VSYNC half, FXAA on, TAA medium, Texture medium and every others set to low
- Framerate: 30 FPS
- Comment: The official Steam version’s performance is subpar. The primary reason is the Rockstar Launcher, which significantly impacts performance. I obtain 15-20 FPS in the official version. Subsequently, I attempted the direct install from DODI, which has yielded better results. It is noteworthy that the official Steam version performs well in 16GB models. However, if you have an 8GB model, you may consider using a pirated version. Repacks do not work in crossover. your only go is to download "direct play no install" file. If you have more than 8GB RAM, purchase it from Steam. The frame rate remains consistent, and there are no significant stutters. I enabled VSYNC and set it to half. If left unenabled, the frame rate fluctuates between 40-45 but drops quite a lot. Therefore, I opted to lock it at 30 FPS and then faced no drops. It is worth mentioning that in some cities and some specific places, the frame rate drops to 25-26 and it is not a significant issue(this is a fault of rockstar. even in my rtx4090 frame rate drops in valentine from 144 to 70.Crazy!).
performance from crossover 25beta4 to 25 is significant. in the beta the cpu usage was high so temperature was between 80-85. but in version 25 the issue fixed. now temperature stays between 70-75 also has more stable fps
