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 | Untested | no report yet — send one |
| DXMTDirect3D 11 over Metal | Untested | no report yet — send one |
| D3DMetalApple's Game Porting Toolkit | Reported | 1 report |
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
The Gang Studio's game from 2025. Reported playable on an M1 with D3DMetal over about 10 minutes, the Epic copy, at about 29 fps in play at 1920x1080 per the Metal HUD in the reporter's screenshot. Input takes 5 to 10 seconds to respond at the first screen.
Known issues
At the language selection screen the keyboard and an XInput pad do nothing for the first 5 to 10 seconds (M1, D3DMetal, Wine 10 r29)

Provenance
Reported by udance4ever (highball-db#962, 2026-11-03), Apple M1, macOS 27.2, Highball 0.10.25, engine x64-sikarugir10.0_6-r29, D3DMetal, rated 4 of 5 after about 10 minutes: the Epic copy. At the language selection screen the keyboard and an XInput pad do nothing for the first 5 to 10 seconds, then respond. The Metal HUD in the screenshots shows 18 fps on that screen and 29 fps in play at 1920x1080. Not verified by the maintainer.
Before installing anything, it is worth checking whether the game already ships a native Mac build.
Common questions
Does Out of Sight work on Mac?
Out of Sight 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.
