Inital Thoughts

Garry's Mod installed perfectly and the main Source gui runs very well in order for most thing to work ON A MACBOOK you need to set the launch settings to the following and set all graphics setting to LOW and no AA:
-console -heapsize 512000 -dxlevel 70 -novid +cl_drawmonitors 0 +r_shadowrendertotexture 00

Report:
(tested on macbook -2.0Ghz core duo -1gb Ram -crossovers ver 6.0.1)

Issues

  • Tool Gun has display problems ie. box appears in the bottom left and the text is a bit strange in the title box.
  • Cannot spawn anything when on High Graphics (i run on LOW graphics and have no problems spawning items.)

Working

  • GUI
  • Object Spawning
  • Thrusters
  • Physics Gun (right click cannot be done on a trackpad with left click held!!!)

Not Working
Nothing as of yet.

Need To Test

  • Constraint-spawning tools
  • Construction tools
  • Posing tools
  • Visual tools
  • Post Processing
  • Multiplayer (Server)
  • Multiplayer (Client)

That is it at the moment i havent had time to fully test it i will update this post when i find more out.
Thanks,
Stephen

Rig:
Macbook Pro 15"
2.3Ghz Intel Core 2 Duo
2GB 667MHz DDR2 SDRAM
Crossover: 6.0.0

Settings:
1440x900
DirectX 7
Settings on High
Trillinear Filtering
HDR/Bloom off
Shading on High

Initial Impressions:
I tested just the simple gm_construct map, and it seems there's these grey flickering boxes that appear at spawn when you turn immediately around. Also one of the building models in the background is off color for some reason.
-The q key has a delayed reaction
-Scroll button has delayed reaction
-The g key doesn't work at all

Also I've noticed that operating at 1440x900 which is the default and maximum resolution for Macbook Pros there's a half black and half white line at the bottom of the screen, for all Source based games.
