Start Cities: Skylines 2 from Steam as normal Warning: Tabbing out will cause the game to become unresponsive and require it to be restarted. Do not change window focus while playing. Subsequent launches may fail to open the Paradox Launcher. This can be resolved temporarily by deleting the Paradox Interactive folder in Program Files. Reinstalling the launcher may also be required.
Virtualization
Parallels	Playable	Runs ok with Medium settings on M2 max, check developper note (25th of October) to improve fps. Barely runs on base M2 with "Very Low" presets and depths of the field disabled. When using selection tools, maps turn yellow/dark. TO FIX IT : (thanks to SonoSoos and NATO boy) source : https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=3060917631 1. Open Steam, right click Cities:Skylines 2, Properties. In General, add --developerMode into the launch options. 2. Load into your savegame/Start a new game, press Tab. After a few seconds of freezing, a slightly transparent black window will pop up on the left. 3. Click on GameRendering (2nd row, 3rd option). 4. Scroll down using scrollwheel or touchpad, dropdown arrow with name "Custom passes". Click on the arrow to open it. 5. 2nd checkbox, uncheck Tunnel Pass. This will get rid of the invisible yellow tint, but underground roads will be invisible (you have to find underground roads using the road upgrade tool or the bulldozer). 6. You can hide the debug window by pressing Tab again.
