Dear Captains,

I just posted this article that should address your concerns. We had a lot of reports but still not so many information from you in order to tell if that a 100% solution.

Please note that other this recent issues there are some other MacWrapper related issues that might appear on some Mac configurations and even if this solution is working, we're unable to resolve all of them just with one fix.

Please feel free to submit a ticket to support if you have any other ticket. Be prepared to provide some information regarding your Mac. There more information you provide initially the easier it will be for us to understand your issue.

Hello @Texas_Vet,

I'm sorry for the "silence". I appreciate your feedback and we'll work on improving communication.

We're currently collaborating with CodeViewers to develop a major Wrapper update that should resolve the majority of crashes and other issues reported here.

Additionally, we're working with our development team to establish a process to support CS tickets and escalate more complicated cases directly to QA. We'll get back to you with more details shortly.

0.8.2 is not stable enough because Mac computers have not very strong integral video adapters (Intel HD in most cases). Because of this our client is relocating missing video memory to RAM and client could be crahed at any time because of Out Of Memory (OOM) issue. Right now WorldOfWarships.exe is a 32 bit application that cannot use more than 4G of RAM. Even if your system has 16G RAM it doesn't matter, because of 32bit appliation.

In 0.8.3 we have released bin64 application of World of Warships. It means that all OOM should be gone if you have enough of RAM on your Mac computer. In addition, CW team is working on big update for WoWs MacOS wrapper (the link I sent in Step.2 in the message above). It is not final yet, but we are working together to make it stable enough for every Mac player.

Bacause of these two news (0.8.3 with bin64 and wrapper update) I am asking you guys to test our game before release, on Public test server. It will not affect you production account at all (pink status or something else). And if you will get any crashes or other issues I am asking you to tell me about them so we could fix them ASAP.

Extremely sorry, but previous dmg file is corrupted :( Please redownload the wrapper again:

Hello!

Please use the laters wrapper I have attached to my "Public test install instruction". This message has been pinned to this forum thread

over 5 years ago - d_gladkov - Direct link

Guys, thanks a lot for your feedback and some really useful information about WoWs wrapper. I will redirect all data to CW team.

over 5 years ago - d_gladkov - Direct link

Please open Finder -> Documents. There you can find "Wargaming.net Games" folder. Go there and you will find WoWs game folder.

You can make screenshots using "comand+sh*t+3" hotkey. All screenshots will be stored on the Desktop.

You shouldn't notice any difference between WGC and Launcher. BTW, WGC wrapper is much-much more table that Launcher's' one, so it is stringly recommended to use it.

over 5 years ago - d_gladkov - Direct link

Yes, better to use WGC rapper

PT client has enabled replays by default. You should find replays in "~/Documents/Wargaming.net Games/World_of_Warships_PT/replays/". Or please try to find them in "bin64" folder: "World_of_Warships_PT/bin64/replays/"

As I know there is no "Screenshot" button on MacOS keyboards. So, I do not know how you can make screenshots in Game except using another keyboard or using MacOS hotkey Command+Shift+3

over 5 years ago - d_gladkov - Direct link

Or you can just remove broken link in Documents and start WGC again. It will recreate it again and it will fiix the issue :)

With 0.8.3.0 that will be released in a few days (Apr 24-25)

over 5 years ago - d_gladkov - Direct link

Current wrapper is not stable at all. But we will release the new one very soon. Till then please use this beta wrapper:

Ahoy,

Is this the only ship you experience this screen on?

Also, can you do the following?

- Lower the graphics settings to "Minimal"

Relaunch and see if there any improvements. If it looks better we can slowly dial it up one step at a time until this is reproduced.

over 5 years ago - Gneisenau013 - Direct link

Can you perform a "check and repair" of the game client and then try relaunching the game?

over 5 years ago - foodprinter - Direct link

Dear captains,

The new version of Mac wrapper was just released. Make sure to download and install it from the Portal.

You might see a warning message that you're trying to open an application from an unauthorized developer which is pretty common when you're trying to install any software from outside of the App Store. Just hold down the Control key on your keyboard while you click and select Open after that.

This Mac Wrapper version is released to address stability issues and the majority of crashing/launching issues. Please provide your feedback so that we could pass it along straight to the development team.

over 5 years ago - foodprinter - Direct link

Sure thing. Click here to download!

over 5 years ago - Gneisenau013 - Direct link

Ahoy Fleet!

If you wish, you can PM me your system information for your Mac.

Please do not share this information on this thread as it contains private/personal information.

If you are using WGC already just replace old one with the newest one. If you have "World of Warships.app" just install WGC and import your game in it. You can delete World of Warships.app then

Yeah, we are still working to make WoWs on MacOS more stable and comfortable. Thanks for the feedback!

Do you have these crashes every first battle? Could you please try to run the game in debug mode so we will collect more data about crashes? Please PM me so I could give you the instruction how to do it.

Could you please try to run the game in debug mode so we will collect more data about crashes? Please PM me so I could give you the instruction how to do it.

There is no way to run WG Check on OSX (for now) :(

Could you please send me screenshots of these issues with texts?

over 5 years ago - d_gladkov - Direct link

As I can see the only issue that still bothering OSX players is constant crashes. Other issues could wait till crashes will be fixed. But the problem here that Mac computers are much different than PC one with the same hardware. At the same time WoWs (and other WG games on Mac) are working uner Wine. Crash files are almost useless because of Windows emulation. It means that at this moment we cannot fix all these crashes without player's' help.

This is why I need your help to make our game much better on OSX.

Known bugs on OSX:

1. Battle crashes/freezes

2. Low FPS on some Mac computers (need more info about Mac hardware)


@njroc, you have very long battle loading issue, right? The client is not freezing os something else? What game settings do you have?

@awesomeartichokes, yeah, I am talking with devs about compensation for Mac players. I will try my best to do it as soon as we can.

@Rick_Elmore, could you please try to run the game in debug mode?

1. Open Terminal application

2. Paste this command:

cd Library/Application\ Support/Wargaming.net\ Game\ Center/Bottles/wargaminggamecenter64/drive_c/Games/World_of_Warships_NA/bin64

Yeah, we know about issue with mouse cursor. But it is common issue for some MacOS applications and we haven't find a way how to fix it on other ways. But CW team is still searching for a way to fix it.

Thanks a lot for you great work! We will integrate these scripts plus some more scripts that could help players to send us additional data (like python.log, screenshots etc). I will reset your pink status and send you some reward for your great help!

Could you please try to do these steps:

1. Open Terminal application (you can find it using Spotlight)

2. Paste this command:

3. Download and install the latest WoWs wrapper from official website:

https://worldofwarships.com/en/content/game/

Please let me know whether it works or not!

Please try this path then:

~/Documents/WoWs/profile/python.log (python_1.log)

over 5 years ago - d_gladkov - Direct link

Only way is to launch the game in debug mode and send me debug logs then. One of these scripts should help:

debugwows.sh

debugwowsNA.sh

Open terminal and use these commands:

chmod u+x ~/Downloads/debugwows.sh

chmod u+x ~/Downloads/debugwowsNA.sh

Then you can launch it using terminal (Open with Terminal)

Yeah, I know this. But A lot of Mac users do not know how to use Finder properly (and I am not even talking about Terminal). So I am trying to give not much information on the first step :)

Thank you for your help!

Yeah, knownissue with mouse cursor capture for a lot of applications on the latest OSX. If you want to fix it you need to add Wargaming.net Game Center.app here

Yes, all WoWs websites are offering NA WGC build because it doesn't matter for WGC what region it is. But WoWs never offered any other WGC build except NA one. It means that you downloaded EU build not from WoWs website but somewhere else.

There is no option to watch replays at this moment. I will ask CW team could it be done in the future.

Please use 3.1.6 version that should work for you (reject autoupdate):

You should understand that tech core of the game is improving from version to version. WoWs 2017 and WoWs 2019 are totally different games. But wrapper is not a solution with guaranteed quality. It is updating much more rare than the game. This is why we need player's' support to improve this quality.

Please send me screenshots of these polygons. And try to update your OSX. It could update your GPU drivers as well.

So, about 200% is normal situation for Mac. On OSX 100% means one core, so if you have a quad core with hyperthreading it can go as high as 800%. Yeah, it is confusing...

200% sounds about right. it means two cores are used. I've seen it between 120% and 300% depending on settings and hardware. If the game is GPU limited the CPU utilization goes down. vsync or fps limits reduce it etc

If I remember right there are 4 threads that are doing real work, and they more or less sum up to 200%.


About kernel_task I recommend you to read this:

https://macperformanceguide.com/blog/2017/20170811_1333-kernel-task-using-all-cores.html

over 5 years ago - d_gladkov - Direct link

It is not a single core. Like I said above one core is 100%. Is you have 200% - it means that 2 cores are busy. And this kind of "load" is acceptable for Mac


Yeah, overheating is one of the most popular Mac problems. They are not designed to play heavy games and they do not have good coolers inside. I know so much stories about bad cooling systems in Mac... Because of overheating you have hernel_task over 300-500%, because it is trying to cool you computer.

CW is aware of this Mac issue and trying to make improvements in the wrapper.


FPS issue is well known on the wrapper and it is 2nd priority issue (1st one is to fix the crashes). CW team are working on improving the situation but till than I recommend you to minimize your graphic settings.


Please try to launch the game in debug mode. Open Terminal and start the game using thus command:

/Applications/Wargaming.net\ Game\ Center.app/Contents/SharedSupport/wargaminggamecenter/Wargaming.net\ Game\ Center/wine --debugmsg=fixme+all Library/Application\ Support/Wargaming.net\ Game\ Center/Bottles/wargaminggamecenter64/drive_c/Games/World_of_Warships_NA/bin64/WorldOfWarships64.exe 2>> ~/Desktop/wows.txt


If game will crash or freeze please ZIP and send me these files:

~/Desktop/wows.txt

~/Documents/Wargaming.net\ Games/World_of_Warships_NA/profile/python.log

~/Documents/Wargaming.net\ Games/World_of_Warships_NA/Reports (all files from here)

~/Documents/Wargaming.net\ Games/World_of_Warships_NA/crashes(all files from here)

~/Documents/Wargaming.net\ Games/World_of_Warships_NA/bin64/crashes(all files from here)


Please run the game in debug mode and send me wows.txt file from the desktop. Sorry but usual game files doesn't have enough information to find out the issue.

And one more. Please make screenshot of Activity Monitor with World Of Warships process. You have extremely a lot of crashes. I am starting to think the problem could be started on integrated GPU (intel HD) instead of dedicated one (Radeon Pro 560).


Please try to launch the game in debug mode. Open Terminal and start the game using thus command:

Please send me client logs that you can find in ~\profile\ folder (python.log, python_1.log)

Sorry but there is no way to watch replays on MacOS at the moment.

Are you using the newest beta OSX version?

over 5 years ago - d_gladkov - Direct link

WGC cannot be run on 10.14.5, but we will fix it soon

As I said before I need debug logs that could be collected only if you run WoWs in debug mode. I need this wows.txt file from the desktop.

Open Terminal and start the game using thus command:

/Applications/Wargaming.net\ Game\ Center.app/Contents/SharedSupport/wargaminggamecenter/Wargaming.net\ Game\ Center/wine --debugmsg=fixme+all Library/Application\ Support/Wargaming.net\ Game\ Center/Bottles/wargaminggamecenter64/drive_c/Games/World_of_Warships_NA/bin64/WorldOfWarships64.exe 2>> ~/Desktop/wows.txt


If game will crash or freeze please ZIP and send me this file:

~/Desktop/wows.txt

over 5 years ago - d_gladkov - Direct link

Yeah. I have asked CW team to make debug application that will run game in Debug mode by default with less amount of logs to provide better performance in debug mode.

There is only "bin64/reports" folder there. No "wows.txt" file from desktop. Or I can't find it

The latest wrapper update was for WoT only. It doesn't affect WoWs at all.

As I said above, we are working on creating additional WGC_debug.app that will run applications in debug mode with additional logs that could help us to solve these freeze/crash issues

over 5 years ago - d_gladkov - Direct link

Hello!

The latest WGC update (not wrapper update) broke wrapper for some Mac computers with Intel GPU cards. CW and WGC teams are working on fixing the issue already.

WGC should be fixed soon.


Sorry for inconvenience!

over 5 years ago - d_gladkov - Direct link

Everyone with WGC crash issue! Please try this test build:

https://drive.google.com/file/d/198ySqKzwRXVr9Vk8wP3v_I3kQovWDT-c/view

It will create log files on Desktop. Please send me them if it won't fix your issue.

Nice! Thanks for your feedback!

It means that "future" version 3.2.0 is not working for you. Thanks a lot for your logs!

Could you please try this version? It will collect much more data after crashes.

https://drive.google.com/open?id=1-9ikLvDIMPt-L6eWhk_kzVp8hGwOKHgp

In case of crashes please send me these files:

1. All files from "World of Waships/crashes/" and "World of Waships//reports/" folder

2. The same files from "World of Waships//bin64/crashes/" and "World of Waships/bin64/reports/"

3. wgc-TIMESTAMP.txt files from Desktop


Thanks a lot!

Older version could not be started because of WGC update. Only 3.1.11 works with their update

Thanks, I will redirect this bug to dev and CW team

What kind of issue do you have? As I understand, you have crashes in rank battles, right? And a few crashes in PvP?

over 5 years ago - d_gladkov - Direct link

Try to remove this folder:

/Users/rickelmore/Library/Application\ Support/Wargaming.net\ Game\ Center/Bottles/wargaminggamecenter64/drive_c/Program\ Files\ \(x86\)/Wargaming.net/GameCenter/

You can do it in terminal:

rm -r ~/Library/Application\ Support/Wargaming.net\ Game\ Center/Bottles/wargaminggamecenter64/drive_c/Program\ Files\ \(x86\)/Wargaming.net/GameCenter/

over 5 years ago - d_gladkov - Direct link

Could you please try to update you OSX to the latest version if you have any updates? It could update video drivers.

Please try official 3.1.11 version from official website. It will not collect logs on desktop anymore and performance of the game should be better.

Thanks a lot!

It should be enough for now. Please use regular version of wrapper from official website. It should have better performance than that.

Have you tried the command in terminal?

over 5 years ago - d_gladkov - Direct link

Open "Terminal" application. Then paste this command:

rm -r ~/Library/Application\ Support/Wargaming.net\ Game\ Center/Bottles/wargaminggamecenter64/drive_c/Program\ Files\ \(x86\)/Wargaming.net/GameCenter/

over 5 years ago - d_gladkov - Direct link

Yes, this one. 3.2.0 should be in a month or later

Is it crashing every battle?

over 5 years ago - d_gladkov - Direct link

OSX update is the only chance you can update drivers because they are integrated in these updates

over 5 years ago - d_gladkov - Direct link

What OSX version are you using?
