Deus Ex GOTY.... and M1 (MBA) :(

Briefly:

Game runs well enough on the M1, but (in my experience)
... gets laggy when multiple characters running around (fight at the park in Hell's Kitchen good example)
... gets laggy when hacking computers
... seems not to like Hong Kong (crashes, but not yet tested replicability of these)

The updated "Deus Ex revision" is unplayably laggy as soon as any character appears, e..g when the security bot walks into frame on liberty island docks... even the seagull doesn't fly smoothly. Which is a shame.

Seeing much better performance on a 6-yr-old MBP under the same version of Crossover (21.1).

I have performed an installation using the following means:

Set up a custom bottle for Deus Ex and Revision using Windows 7 64-bit bottle on a 2020 MacBook Pro 13" with 16GBRAM. I didn't use the crosstie and I ran the Installation with the GOG.com version. The Base Game runs just fine if you set the game on OpenAL for the rendering software on startup. I also included my means to install and get both the base game and the Revision Mod running in a YouTube Video,
