Highball
Which renderer to use
Highball can run each game through three different Direct3D translation layers. This is what the database knows for this title — empty rows are open questions, not failures.
| Renderer | Verdict | Evidence |
|---|---|---|
| DXVKDirect3D 9-11 over Vulkan | Reported | community reports |
| DXMTDirect3D 11 over Metal | Untested | no report yet — send one |
| D3DMetalApple's Game Porting Toolkit | Untested | no report yet — send one |
No dated Highball run yet. When one lands it records the renderer, the engine build and the macOS version it was seen on — which is what stops a verdict quietly rotting. Send one.
Notes
Reported perfect on a Wine 11 engine with DXVK on an M4 for nearly an hour. Nothing was measured here.
Provenance
Reported by pavitraboi369-ai (highball-db#484, 2026-10-14), Apple M4, macOS 27.0.1, Highball 0.10.10, engine x64-crossover26.3-r9, DXVK with async shader compilation, sync none, scale 168 dpi, AVX advertised, recipes vcrun2022 and corefonts, rated 5 of 5 after 57 minutes. Steam AppID from the store, the report named only the game. Not verified by the maintainer.
Before installing anything, it is worth checking whether the game already ships a native Mac build.
Common questions
Does OMORI work on Mac?
OMORI has no native Mac build, but it is reported to run on Apple Silicon through Highball, a free open-source compatibility layer. This comes from community reports rather than a Highball test run, so treat it as a reasonable expectation rather than a guarantee.
Which renderer should I use for OMORI?
DXVK. Highball can translate Direct3D through DXVK, DXMT or Apple's D3DMetal, and the right choice varies by game. The database records DXVK for OMORI. Highball uses it automatically when the game has a row; to set it by hand, open Settings, then Environments.
