    Hello, I've retired my old 2016 MBP and replaced it with a 2024 Mac for daily usage. I want to give my 2016MBP new life since security updates will be stopping soon for Monterey. I am thinking of installing Bootcamp, Windows 10, and steam, in order to play Age of Empires 2 definitive edition...

    Other Steam API Emulator

    You can buy lots of video games on Steam. Many of them support old versions of OS X! In fact, many of them only support old versions of OS X, because Apple removed 32-bit support in macOS 10.15 Catalina. Too bad Steam only supports macOS 10.15 and above! And most Steam games need Steam to run...

    Any way to get rid of Steam, post-purchase?

    I'm interested in buying a game. I see I can pick it up from the publisher for a lot of money, or buy it on Steam for a little. The only trouble is I see that Steam requires an account, a client install, and an active internet connection, none of this appeals to me. I've gotten differing...

    OS X MacOS Proton Replacement

    So this is probably a question I’ll get laughed at for asking, but is there an alternative to Proton on MacOS for playing Windows games on Mac? Linux has this application and paired with Steam it works wonders (for the most part). But when I try to find a way to do this on my MacBook, I find...

    Monterey, Steam and Xbox controllers?

    Anyone had any joy with the above? If so, did it work fine or got any tips? I got a couple of games in the Steam sale over Christmas for my new M1 Max MBP. This week I've tried two of them I want to use my controller with (DiRT Rally and GRIS) but the controller is unusable. It's semi-working...

    Can I Disable Auto Update On Steam In My Macbook Pro

    Why does steam update all of my games while I am working? I am tired of this as I can barely surf on the internet during this, much less work. Is there any way I can disable auto-update on steam in my Macbook Pro? Any help would be appreciated.

    MP 1,1-5,1 Mac Pro 2008 (3,1) -- reinstall MacOS, or Ubuntu linux?

    I'm looking for perspective on what to do with my early-2008 Mac Pro (3.1). In 2017 I bought a 27" iMac, and matching Dell 27" monitor. I ended up installing ubuntu linux on a new SSD drive in the Mac Pro, but I haven't been using it. I'm wondering if the old Mac Pro might be more useful as a...

    Wine 64bit DNS issues

    Hi, I’m hoping someone can help me as I’m quite new to Wine and Windows emulation in general. I’m trying to setup Steam on my Mac Pro so I can download the Windows-only games and am using a 64bit engine as a couple of titles won’t play on x86. My understanding based on checking out the Linux...

    Universal Steam App vs Steam Link App

    I just read about the new AppStore guidelines that got published and am thoroughly confused about the whole thing. Can someone explain to me (1) why the Steam app is an approved app under the old rules (and presumably the new) despite its in-app Steam Store interface that allows individual...

    OS X Failure to launch ETS2 from Steam, El Cap 10.11.6

    Hey all; got a weird one. Since Mar 21 when a new version of Steam client rolled out, I have not been able to launch my copy of Euro Truck Simulator 2. This is a sim I have heavily invested in (both in DLCs and in playing hours -- more than 450 hours over the last 2+ years!) so it's pretty...

    Heat Signature (Steam/PC)

    Is anyone currently playing Heat Signature on PC? I was gifted it from a friend as early Birthday and am hooked! A lot of user reviews are calling it a Hotline Miami/FTL cross and that's pretty accurate. I've never played the developers previous game "Gunpoint" but this is right up my street...
