What works

Game plays fine. Everything works.

Does crash here and there.

I have all video options on low on my Nvidia 7950gt running 1680x1050 resolution to get best frame rate I can.

What does not

Turning on 'Shadows' in video options slows the game too much.

Workarounds

What was not tested

Due to the nature of an MMO I cant have tried everything, but I have played it alot and all is well.

I tried most video options on higher settings, and while some didn't affect performance much, others did.

Additional Comments

1- Sign up for free 10 day trial. 2- Download Mac/Wine Mini Beta Client. 3- Install AcetoneISO2 from repository. 4- Extract the .dmg image to a folder using AcetoneISO2 5- I had to override ntdll.dll and winhttp.dll to native or updater fails to ever finish downloading. Also override mmdevapi.dll to disabled or no sound in-game. 6- cd to Fallen Earth folder and 'wine FEUpdaterMac.exe' If the installer stalls just re-run it. Once done just click 'launch' to play. wine FEUpdaterMac.exe is the launcher. You must run it in order to start game. OPTIONAL- I installed winetricks and d3dx9 and got a nice performance boost out of it. OPTIONAL- You can stop using the overides for ntdll.dll and winhttp.dll and game will still work, but I guess next time the updater needs to download content they will need to be overridden again.
