Wont Stream to Mac from PC
Anyone managed to get Steam Streaming to work between PC and MAC with Nvidia RTX 4070 TI. All I get is a blank screen after the launcher though cursor is the in-game one and sound is playing.

Devs said it won't be compatible with macOS or Linux. Not sure if this extends to streaming

Yes, the game will stream to MacOS. Worked fine from my 4070 to my MacBook Pro M3

Would have immediately bought it if Mac support. Surprised companies still paint themselves into this corner.

If you have Crossover, Sins2 runs completely fine on M1+ Macs. Multiplayer works too if you add the following to the setting.json "game_client.debug.override_processor_architecture":
"AMD64", and by replacing the following .dll (ucrtbase.dll, concrt140.dll, msvcp140.dll, vcamp140.dll, vccorlib140.dll, vcomp140.dll, vcruntime140.dll) files in the steam, windows\system32 bottle, after you've replaced those, you go to wine settings and select all the replaced .dll files and tell wine to use the native, aka wine bundled files, which are the .dll files you just replaced.

The .dll files can also be found here, https://github.com/abbodi1406/vcredist/releases

You'll want something like 7zip or something that can open .exe on a Mac like a folder, most of the .dll files you'll need will be in the 2022\x64\System64 folder ucrtbase.dll is found in the ucrt\amd64_microsoft-windows-ucrt (version numbers go here) folder, as long as you get the highest version number and the AMD64 version of this .dll, you should be fine.

Also don't worry about getting x86 .dll files, Sins2 is 64bit only, so it doesn't need them.

If anyone can help me figure out how to run the game on my Mac book air M3, that would be amazing. This has been my favorite game for over 10 years and I'm willing to get a new computer to play it if I have to.

Download 'Steam Link' on the app store and use it to stream.
