Max Payne and Max Payne 2 on Mac OS!
Mac Gamers Rejoice! Max Payne 1 &2 on Mac OS!
News
So, back in 2022, there was a crash and an inability to play Max Payne 1 and 2 on Mac OS due to an error involving Direct X 8 not being present on Steam or in a manual installation in Codeweavers Crossover or Using The Porting Kit. Now, that has been fixed! Now you can enjoy the early 3D Platformers on Steam using Codeweavers Crossover! Here is how you can enjoy the classic games!
Install Steam
So, for running Steam, I have tested and formed a new guide for Installing Steam on Crossover in late 2024, as my previous guide was for Crossover 22, and at the time, I needed to update my guide to remain current with the updates and new versions of Crossover, and so here, I will offer you the two guides for Installing Steam I have made, there is the video guide version shown below:
For those who prefer to follow a written guide? No worries! I wrote a guide step by step here on the Radio Kaos Blog
Now, with Steam Installed, you should have a final step for Installing and Running Max Payne in the Steam Bottle Preferences. Go to the right, and find the set of checkboxes known as "Advanced Settings". As Max Payne and Max Payne 2 were not originally made to play in High Definition Resolutions, you will need to uncheck the High Resolution mode checkbox for the Steam Bottle, which you would have checked on for playing games such as Halo: The Master Chief Collection, or Age of Empires II : Definitive Edition among others! With this setup established, you're ready to play Max Payne 1 and 2 and enjoy the classic action games once more!
