Technical Moderator Pony51 6,572 Report post Posted November 13, 2020 Why is Catalina (10.15.7) now a requirement? Short answer: Video drivers. Catalina has updated drivers from nVidia that are Cat only, not in earlier versions of MacOS. Same could be with AMD, the latest drivers only in Cat, as neither company produces separate driver installations for Macintosh (at least avoids driver meltdowns one can have on PC). These drivers are needed for new Dagor 6 engine to work Cat was released on June 3, 2019, and runs on hardware made in late 2012. Some of the oldest low end Macs have GPU that is incapable of supporting the game, anything newer should work fine. Obsolesces of computers is inevitable. Games must continue to update to be competitive. Evolve or fade. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bottom line, for the game to work, there is something in Cat is that is critical. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
