incompatible games should be grayed out

Open Anatharias opened this issue 1 year ago • 2 comments

I think adding a grayed out tile on top of games known to not work would be great. Destiny 2 - requires Easy AntiCheat 2 - is not going to work under macOS whatever the mean.. So graying out the tile in the list of titles, with a tooltip explaining why it is not possible to install/run it. Same for games that requires AVX instructions (https://www.applegamingwiki.com/wiki/Game_Porting_Toolkit#AVX) Also, maybe adding a clickable link to the macgaming wiki compatibility page.

Even, let's get wild... for any game that has a wiki page, offer a link to said page in order to follow the recommendations. For instance, Horizon : Wero Dawn has a weird requirement for it to run full speed. this is not explained on the wiki page, instead a dude crated a video for it. Maybe then offer a clickable google link with search words, like "game name" + mac + fix + tweak, that'll look like this, once on google: Horizon Zero Dawn mac tweak fix

That's a cool idea! How about allowing the user to install and run the game regardless? For instance, we could implement a pop-up that mentions the title might not run, with options for 'Abort' and 'Run Anyway'.

Could add a little circular orange warning sign on those games with a message that appears when the mouse hovers over it saying something like “This title is not fully compatible, it might not run as expected or at all.”

Difficult to do at this time, marking as stale.
