And of course while Crossover (which is basically the "pro" version of WINE) has a free trial it will cost $40-$60 if one desires to keep using it after the trial period. The LOTRO Mac client (which is really the Windows client packaged with WINE) runs great in Mojave, I have no serious issues, but of course it's nice to not have to reboot and to have my primary system running when I want to take the game to windowed mode and use some other application for a moment while playing. ![]() I sometimes need to use a few 32-bit Mac applications so I reboot to Mojave every now and then anyway. I've been using a second boot volume with Mojave for playing LOTRO. **For whatever it's worth, I did this on a 2019 21.5" iMac with a 3.6GHz i3, 32gb of RAM, a 2tb SSD (with two APFS volumes, one for booting into Mojave and the other for booting into Big Sur), and a Radeon Pro 555X with 2gb of VRAM running my built-in monitor at its full normal "retina" display resolution of 2048x1152.** Long story short: It was very easy to do, works great, there are a few very minor annoyances relative to running the "Mac" client in Mojave which have to be weighed against the annoyance of having to reboot into Mojave to run the regular "Mac" client. ![]() I've been using Big Sur for a few days now so I decided that today was the day I'd try to install LOTRO on my main boot volume. ![]() **See Message #17 in this thread for the "quick" 15-step process to using Crossover to successfully run LOTRO in MacOS 11 Big Sur.**Īs I wrote in an earlier thread, I planned to try using Crossover to play LOTRO as soon as MacOS Big Sur was released and I was comfortable with it.
