In this very special video, we’ll take a first look at gaming on Mac with DXMT (DirectX to Metal)! I’ll also show how you can test games yourself by using CXPatcher and CrossOver 24! Please keep in mind that DXMT is still in its Alpha stage and this is just a way to test it early! A big thank you to Jfishin for helping make this video and huge shout out to 3Shain and the entire DXMT team for their incredible work. Lastly, a big thank you to Italomandara and Gcenx for adding DXMT to CXPatcher! Check out everyones GitHub pages below!
