A release of iOdus: a native macOS front end for Xbox PC games, in the style of a console dashboard.

This is an early version. Expect some problems, and back up your saves.

Changes since 0.1.4

  • OpenGL games that ask for WGL_CONTEXT_OPENGL_NO_ERROR_ARB no longer fail on the Wine 11 runtime. Wine's Mac driver refused the attribute as unknown. (#4)
  • Grim Fandango Remastered: iOdus also asks Wine for a forward-compatible OpenGL context for this game, because macOS has only forward-compatible core contexts. (#4)
  • Wine 11 runtime release 5 with the fix above. Settings > Runtimes shows it as an update for "CrossOver 26.3 Wine" and for the D3DMetal 4 beta runtime. Your prefixes and saves stay.

Thanks to @killam42 for the detailed report and the logs.

Update: from 0.1.2 or later, use Settings > Updates. From 0.1.0 or 0.1.1, install it from this page. After the app update, install the runtime update in Settings > Runtimes.

Install

  1. Download iOdus-0.1.5.dmg and open it.
  2. Drag iOdus to Applications, then open it from Applications.
  3. Follow the setup, then sign in with your Microsoft account.

The app and the disk image are signed with a Developer ID and notarized by Apple.

Requirements: a Mac with Apple silicon, macOS 15 or later. The D3DMetal 4 beta runtime needs macOS 27 or later.
