Call of Duty 2 LAG

[50548]

I have the same problem... I dunno why.

Check my tip provided above.

SIMPLE fix: select the main app icon, do a "get info" on it and check the box "Open using Rosetta".

This helped a lot, thanks

Now COD2 runs smoothly — albeit not blazingly fast, it's definitely playable!

I know it's an old one but it actually bothers me.
Using Rosetta is OK, but not that big improvement. Machine is Mini 9400m and 320m. Seems that 9400m is better then 320m. Seems that High-Quality uses a shader or something else that causes this issue.
Is it possible to do a better config over a cfg-file?
Thx!

IIRC, COD 1 & 2 were released on the App Store for Intel based Macs a long, long time ago (January 2012 to be precise). No need for Rosetta.
Trouble is now of course, that old 32 bits are no longer available. Sure there is no other way to get hold af a Intel-Mac version of the game?

 

[dr.zeissler]

Ok, but where do I get these Versions, can I buy them? and are they fixed or do they have the same issues.

The COD2 lag is gone if you use an intel HD3000 with high-details.
It seems that some effects are not displayed, but the game-experiance is now excellent.

It works better on Wine than on Mac and with CrossOver 19 you can play it on Catalina.
