MacPro 2013 "trashcan" performance issues bootcamp

[texaspatzer]

For anyone who ends up with a similar fate, I run a Mac Pro 2013 "trashcan". I usually play stock game direct on OSX w no issues. However on occasion I have to run native windows to run Windows games that need full native response when Parallels wont work. In order to use the Pacific Mod I need to use this direct boot mode. However my WOTS performance was very bad after a long time without trouble. Uninstalling and reinstallning no help. Likely over time updates have been applied. Apple provides default drivers for video and even parallels likes to add their own. Those are now old as well.

Recently tried to go native to run the Pacific Mod and found that my WOTS install was running poorly. It ran bad in Parallels but it was better than native. The old 'trashcan' has an older video card, so I did some searching and found that AMD has updated video drivers you can download and this fixed the issue.

Took me a bit to find the right link, but here it is. The latest drivers for the Apple MacPro 2013 "trashcan" video card, there are several listed but I used the r5 version and now the game place as expected.
