    Hey guys and girls and everybody in-between and outside,
    I play beamNG with my older Mac with crossover. It works ok. I have fun.
    But there is something that disturb. I got some crazy artifacts on cars, there are polygons flying around the cars and they changes with direction of the car and destruction of the car. I think it is something about the shaders, like glossy or mirroring. on the other hand, it stays by the origin of the object/car. even if I destroy the whole car, it is there. Sometimes there is nothing of that, sometimes I repair the car often and it goes away but after another repairing it is back. The cars in the world got it too...
    it would be great to find a solution. maybe there are some settings or hacks...

    Tank you!

    Yea, Beam on MacOS would be nice. Even if game would have slower performance. Like Cities Skylines did.

    Your problem is possibly to mismatch of drivers between graphic card in mac and Windows.

    Well apple launched their beta dx12 to metal api and it’s not great, but it does significantly reduce the porting process.
    It’s still not very valid for the devs, but if they keep making the api better and better, it could just run without any changes to the game!

    And to add Apple have their own processors in some of their devices. Windows is not supporting wild processors, so until is there official support for Apple PC. You could have this kind of graphic quirks.

    There is a arm version of windows, with a wip 86x translation layer, but that is very buggy, and only desktop apps like chrome and space cadet could run well

    Hey You! Thanks! I have seen such bugs on YouTube Videos even with the best graphics(on Windows I think), if someone make a huge crash and the car is absolutely destroyed. And I noticed some regularities - when I had contact with other cars and restore my car, the quirks are there on the restored car. if I had contact only with the environment and restore the car, the quirks are not there. Thats when I have my fun :)
    Also the black poly are connected between car and parts of the car, if a part flies away, some polys follow the parts.
