Hello.I'm using a m1 macbook pro.
While using crossover 20 or wine to play war III i got some issues.
Game was running and fps was ok at melee map but when i play dota or dota lod ( v6.88 i think ) fps will be 9 to 20 fps ingame make it impossible to play.I tried install dxvk , directx but it wont help.So it's my wrong config or warcraft iii is not running ok on m1 chip.I mean the old cpu like an intel celeron cpu and onboard graphic can perform it well but apple soc cant ?

For what is worth, i am experiencing stuttering on WoW after upgrading to 11.2 and the game eventually crashes with a CVMServer error which is part of the OpenGL framework, check your console to see if you are getting anything similar.

Warcraft III has got a macOS version, you should try it.
Warcraft III 1.26a ( the version I need to play on RGC ) can't run on Big Sur.I tried window arm with parallel and fps in game is good ( ~ 55 to 60 fps ) but RGC.exe can't be run on virtual machine.So I must use crossover 20 to run the RGC.exe and War3.exe but fps in game is too bad.I think it's crossover problem or my settings is not right.Or maybe it's macOS Big Sur problem.

I'm having similar issues on my apple M1 System On Chip using rosetta emulation. The FPS is tolerable depending on the map and how far the game has progressed. Middle to late game the FPS starts stuttering on at least half the games I play. Very annoying to waste all that time when you have to bail mid game. In some instances I get a complete freeze and I have to force quit the game. Any progress on this issues? Are they even planning on releasing native binaries for this? Can I build the source code myself?
