The Misty Mountains
I downloaded or tried to download a tank game in the iOS league (by league I mean iOS compatible) off the App store which has a version that is MacOS compatible. My 2016 MBP is slow, so I thought an iOS compatible game, might run on it. Quick question, when you download a game off the App Store to your Mac, shouldn't the file end up in your download folder? Hmm, it's not there. I'm at a friends house out in the country with a slow internet connection. 🤔

Anyway since I have a Razer mouse, I thought I'd try Synapse v2 the Razer controller which they claim is compatible with Monterey (iOS 12), yet, when installed on this laptop, and I hook up the mouse (2014 Razer Naga which works with the MacOS), I was getting a message in Synapse to hook up a Razer device. I checked the list of compatible devices, and this is mouse is supposed to be compatible, but it's not recognized. Is anyone using Synapse software on your Mac?

Then thing is is that Razer seems to have dropped support for Mac. If I read it right, Synapse V3 is not Mac compatible. 🤨

Is there is alternate software, compatible with your Razer mouse on MacOS that allows for programming? Honestly I don't know what capabilities the MacOS has to program game specific key sets. My impression it does not have the capability.

The game “Modern Tanks” ended up in my App Folder on my MBP, but I swear it was hiding the first time I looked at it. ;) Razer Synapse v2 installs but does not recognize my Razer Mouse, so who knows why? They claim it is compatible Monterey but that is not evident.
