Hey im pretty sure My mac isnt powerful enough to run this smoothly but im having minor lag problems with the game, I have a white macbook running osx, know anyway to fix any lag problems?
@IMABEASTIN10 mine keeps on saying "failed to initialise renderer. your display doesn't support the selected resolution.please set a different resolution in Skyrim's Launcher under'Display Settings'." please help me fix this
I get the "failed to initialize rendere" display. I have an 27" imac, good enough graphic card... Whats the problem ? I even changed iSize to my resolution. Help ?!
Nice vid dude! I've seen other people try to explain it, but they all got a direct skyrim zip and not some weird file and when you explained you needed utorrent, it was the fix to everything! Thanks a lot.
failed to initialize renderer your display dosent support the selected resoulution please set a different resoulution in skyrims launcher under settings can you please help i dont know how to change it
Help! It says my display doesn't fit the game or something and wants me to change the references, but when I click on the preferences it says its not mac compatible!
When you go into your Elders Scroll folder to copy the stuff into the other folder, you click Show Package Contents... HOW!?!?!?! It doesent work on mine D: HALPPPP
i've downloaded everything and now when i go to combine the documents and start the game it just brings up the wineskin and asks where to install the software...i have already downloaded it and i cant even download it anywhere relevant to skyrim
all the graphics are fucked up can u tell me what to do like everything is red and the clothes are transparent and i can see through people plz like so i can get some help idk what to do
It´s not possible to make a new account on porting team´s forum for the time, but can someone post the direct link for the download on that page? I can´t read it, it´s to blurry, but it says something like link save.in and a lot of numbers..
So can someone tell me the link from the porting team forum? Thanx :)
Your display doesn't support the selected resolution. Please set a different resolution in Skyrim's Launcher under 'Display Settings' is what mine says WHAT DO I DO
@IMABEASTIN10 "your not smart enough to know to" stfu kid, the game is not intended for Mac's, why do u think its so laggy?? cuz the processor in the computer has to process something that is not suppose to be processed. plus, if u did want to play this, u need over 4gbs of ram, over 512mb of vram, and 3.06 ghz intel core 2 duo. SO U STFU i know what im talking about
I can't download Skyrim-you know from the second website-beacuse when I download it starts to download something who not have with Skyrim to do. @IMABEASTIN10
HEY GUYS IF YOU HAVE THE FAILED TO INITIALISE RENDER PROBLEM OR IF YOU JUST WANT TO CHANGE YOUR PREFERENCES, IVE MADE A VIDEO ON IT SO JUST VISIT MY ACCOUNT AND TAKE A LOOK
Hey, I did everything right, followed two videos for this, each saying the same thing, and it still doesn't work. I get to the point where I click new game, its loading for a bit and shows the dragon and the tips in the corner, but right when the game starts it freezes and does this everytime. I know its not that my computer cant run it, Ive got the os x 10.6.8. Can someone tell me how to fix this?
do you know i can use my wired xbox 360 controller on this i enabled it on the settings of the game and it wont work...its works for other games but not this for some reason..help
Hey mate! Just to let you know it works perfectly :D Only one little problem, can't seem to change the graphics to make it run smoother and can't open the Skyrim Preferences? Any ideas? Cheers
@DrSpinner1 its cheaper to build your own computer, if ur looking to play MMO's in ultra settings.. VRAM = 2gb's, RAM = 16 gb's, RPM = 10,000, OS - i7, VC = 2 nvidia geforce 570, HD - 500gb.. look up BEST GAMING COMPUTERS on google and click on first link
Guys I am uploading now a how to fix skyrim failed to initialise render video on youtube so just search "how to fix skyrim failed to initialise render" in a few hours
can you help me i have it dowloaded and every things works thnx but it is verry laggy so can you help me with it? with the settings you cant change any thing i hope so! but thnx man it works!
dude.. why is it when i click the launcher after dragging it like you did, it didnt do anything. yea, the skyrim icon appeared on the bottom of my desktop but suddenly it disappear. What do i do?? please tell me
ok so if you have the failed render problem what you have to do is, click on the skyrim preferences logo, then a search box should come up, then find the same skyrim folder and instead of double clicking on preferences again click on the actual skyrim logo that you need to use to start up the game. this will work because it needs to look for another wrapper which you already put into your skyrim logo contents, if need help message me again :)
i see you have anmesia too! i just beat it...scary as hell, anyway, is there any way to use mods for this game on the mac side, i know they have a bunch for the pc but i cant figure out how to use them on the mac, or even find any that i can download on the mac
When the downloadd was finished it was just "Skyrim" and it couldn't open so i changed it to .zip and it still won't unzip and I'm using the unarchiver
