OS X El Capitan - Mac Client Status

Still plays horribly on Mac, and yes I have to rescale my resolution as well upon each client opening. Maxed out MacBook Pro retina. Blehhh thank god for bootcamp? SE never really does anything right the first time. Or the second time.lol

could be because it was outsourced to not SE.

Looks like the window issue displaying offscreen should be fixed but it may require you to re-install the Mac Client.

I got a pop up this morning on my Mac client version to re-install. It looks like some more Mac improvements but some people may be instructed via the pop up first to re-install the Mac client:

Update Details
Reinstalling the client will address the following:
 ・ An issue wherein performance improvements were not being properly applied.
 ・ An issue related to system updates.
 ・ An issue wherein the top portion of the window would appear off-screen when using Mac OS X 10.11 El Capitan.
 ・ An issue wherein the in-game Support Desk feature could not be used.
 ・ Multiple issues related to Japanese input.

I really hope they get this sorted out. I am a PC and Mac User, and wouldn't mind having this game run on my Mac, rather then bootcamp, etc. :)

After re-installing the client as instructed. I am seeing much better performance, frame rates, and no graphic ghost images appearing like I used to at times. I am pleased thus far with the update. More time will tell I am sure. But for the 1hour I've played, it is much better then it was previously.

Be ready for a long re-install and then update process. It took me several hours, but well worth it.

Played for several hours and the graphics problems seem to be all gone. Thank you SE!

This looks promising. I'm currently downloading the game client again. If all works better than before I'll be returning as a regular player to the game.

How did it go Reih?

I'm flabbergasted. Playing on a custom-built i7 Sandy Bridge Mac with AMD 6780 graphics - the game is gorgeous, smooth, and flawless. I don't know how they fixed it. I didn't think it was fixable. :O

Reading these update reviews is getting me excited- redownloading the updated client. Hopefully I'll be able to finally see how the game looks on max settings. Not holding my breath though.
