MacBook Pro :: Best Settings For World Of Warcraft?
Aug 26, 2010I'm ordering a Macbook Pro next week and I'm curious as to which is going to be the best setup. I plan to play World of Warcraft on it (as well as use it for my work). Ideally I'd have liked the 13" because I prefer the smaller size but out of these setups which would be best?
13-inch: 2.4GHz with SSD (would the 2.66GHz make a significant difference?) or Baseline 15-inch: 2.4GHz
I don't mind running the game on medium settings, although I'd prefer not to run it on it's lowest. I would be using it for raiding 10 and 25 mans. I'd expect 25fps min in most situations, but would like more.
Is this achievable on the 13"? I just don't want to order one and find I'm disappointed, given the cost.
MacBook Pro :: World Of Warcraft Hi Res Screen?
Apr 29, 2010I am going to get a MBP i5 2.53ghz with 7200rpm 500gb hd. And a Hi Res AG screen.

Anything will be a step up from using an ibook g4.

Anyone have a similar config and some results?
MacBook Pro :: World Of Warcraft Might Have Broken System
Aug 17, 2010Ever since I started playing WoW my MBP would get pretty hot to the point were my keys were burning my fingers, this would happen after around an hour of playtime. Two days into playing my laptop started freezing a lot, it started freezing up everything being unable to do anything (it would freeze for around 30sec then unfreeze for about 10seconds then freeze up again) This also kept happening even after I wasn't in game, so it came to a point were I had to format the mac, it works fine now but I'm afraid to play WoW again because of this freeze. Also, I played SC2 & Heroes of Newerth with no problems.

MacBook Air :: World Of Warcraft Display 1920 X 1080?
Oct 21, 2010I saw a few videos on youtube of the previous revision models and it seemed OK.
So this will run WoW on mediumish at 1440x900? I take it if I connected it to a 1920 x 1080 display in windowed mode it would probably lag?
MacBook Pro :: World Of Warcraft Compatibility With Base 13" MBP?
Jul 3, 2009Is it better spend the extra for the Pro as opposed to the regular MacBook performance wise?
I have a last gen base 20" iMac (from Aug 2008) .. the game seems to run pretty well, except now that I am in the Wrath part of the game it is starting to stutter more frequently.
Does the base 13" MBP run the game good? in comparison to the last gen base iMac?
Just looking to find some justification into purchasing either the MacBook or base MBP

Mac Pro :: Can't Get 60 Frames Per Second - World Of Warcraft (WoW)
Feb 18, 2008I am new to macs, wanted the best they could offer before i became assimilated into the mac world so i waited for the new Mac Pro. Just got it and the only game i am playing is World of Warcraft. I have the 8800GT video card and 4gb of ram, the rest is as they ship it in their "standard version" of the new Mac Pro's.
I can't get over 60 frames per second with the settings maxed out. Even when i take the Multisampling to 24-Bit Color 24-bit depth 1X Multisample.
Everything is maxed out, everything. I know when i have the multisampling turned up to 4x i should be able to get over 60fps when i am like, looking at the sky or something, but i cant get it over 60fps. What do i need to do? I have read on some Blizzard forums about typing in commands like "/console GLFaster 0/1/2" but none of that is changing anything. I am running 10.5.2 of Leopard.
OS X :: Blocking World Of Warcraft?
Mar 15, 2009I'm tired of my brother getting terrible grades, not doing anything, and complaining about lagging all the time so how can I go about blocking world of warcraft from our network? I have a time capsule and found out that WoW uses port 3724 but that's all i know... If it can't be done with the network then how would I be able to block it on his computer without him being able to fix it with just a reinstall? (he has a PC)

Aug 27, 2009Ah, nothing like zero-ing out a disk and installing from scratch.
Except, like 13 World of Warcraft discs say otherwise.
My question is whether or not I can just drag my entire WoW folder to an external drive and drag back after the reformat. I don't want to use time-machine or migration assistant, because I specifically want to wipe everything else out, just not WoW.
Also, bonus question: iLife 09 is on which disk from the bundle that came with my iMac? And I can install that after I install SL right?
Applications :: Way To Re-Install Warcraft III

It just close the window, and a new window (The same as the last one) popup.
View 1 Replies View RelatedMacBook Air :: World Of Warcraft On 11.6 MacBook Air?
Oct 29, 2010I didn't see a thread on this yet and I assume there are probably others out there who want to know if the 11.6" MacBook Air can play WoW so I thought I would post my experiences.
My particular 11.6" MacBook Air is of the maxed out variety (1.6GHz, 4GB RAM, and 128GB HDD) so I can't speak for the base model. I am happy to report that WoW is perfectly playable on the MacBook Air with "Good" level graphics. Outside in Northrend produces an average of about 30 fps, which is perfectly playable. You could always turn the graphics down further and bump up the performance a little more if you needed it, say in Dalaran perhaps.
The flash memory makes the game load very quickly and characters and environment details appear the moment you log in which makes the game feel a lot faster. The fan will get VERY loud however. You can tell it's working that little processor and graphics chip hard. The machine will also get pretty warm on your lap but nowhere near as bad as my 15" MacBook Pro does.
The verdict? I wouldn't go raiding on it, but for casual questing it's just fine. It's no gaming powerhouse but the Air can hold its own, at least with the upgraded processor and RAM.
I'd love to hear from someone with a base model Air to see how it performs as well!

Nov 30, 2008Since I got my Macbook Pro back in June, boot times and loading times of apps seems to of gotten longer. I ran iDefrag to see what was going on and the most fragged file was lichking.MPQ which, as most of you may know, is the new World of Warcraft expansion. it is a large file (2.4gb).
iDefrag reported my HDD being 28% fragmented.
My question is, should or do I need to defrag? It has been asked a 1,000,000 times I know but I just can't seem to get a simple yes or no answer anywhere.
Some people say yes, some say no and some say defragging my mac caused a hard drive failure etc..
Mac Pro :: WoW (World Of Warcraft) Freezes In 8-core
Dec 5, 2008I have totally standard new Mac Pro (8-Core etc).
I usually have a few simple apps running at the same time...
Currently a UML App, Adium, Firefox, Skype, Mail & iTunes, and obviously... WoW.
For some reason, every now and again, it freezes, then returns to it's normal (high) FPS... anything I can do to speed it up? I'm thinking whether it's really worth buying it 8800 GT?

View 4 Replies View RelatedSoftware :: Warcraft 2 - OS Tells Me CD Not In Drive
Aug 27, 2008Tried to run WARCRAFT 2 on classic, on a 1GH Powerbook, running 10.4. Classic loads up, lets me install the game, but of course, in the extensions manager, there is NO CD-ROM extension. So my first question is, has anyone run warcraft 2 in classic using 10.4?
But I am not one to back down from problem-solving...
Fine. Probably need to run OS 9.2.
So I have in my possession an old iBook. G3, 500mhz, 500MB of ram, running OS 9.2.2. Little computer works nicely. (9.2 was really ground-breaking!!!) Loads Warcraft 2 quickly as well. BUT, gives me the same error message. I've been playing around with extensions forever. I upgraded this iBook's hardware and installed a DVD/CD-RW. Could that be causing a conflict? If so, how would that be addressed? The CD-rom works though...
I'm noticing on the desktop, there are two icons when the CD is inserted. One that says WARCRAFT 2 and another that says, AUDIO1. The AUDIO1 CD icon of course, has songs on it.
IMac :: 27" Graphics Settings With Warcraft?
Dec 30, 2010I just got an i7 27" iMac, and while its wonderfully in every way imaginable, I have an issue with my graphics card or drivers or something.
Two examples proving an issue:
I run world of warcraft and look in the video settings and I can't set anything to max at all, also a red bar assuming my graphics card is way out of its depth or something.
Also tried to run Left 4 Dead 2 from steam and in the menu I get some images come up as pink checkered squares and it always freezes when loading a match.

Mac Pro :: Snow Leopard - World Of Warcraft Resolution Won't Change
Sep 10, 2009Now I know something is up here, however I dont know what. I have an Early 2009 Mac Pro 2.66, 6GB , 300GB Velociraptor and a GTX 285. I stood in a very visually intensive area of Sholazar Basin and got 37 FPS @ 2560x1600 with everything at max.
I then changed ALL setting s to the LOWEST possible and resolution I took down to 1920x1200 .. guess what? SAME EXACT 37 FPS....
To make sure I do not have a faulty card I went and installed CUDA and an app that forces the GTX 285 to run full speed 1.48Ghz... I got the exact same results...
IS this the Card? the drivers? Snow leopard?? This SAME card runs at 80+ FPS using Bootcamp in the same machine so Im leaning toward Snow Leopard or the drivers... Anyone? Thoughts? I want to ditch my windows Gaming box but this is frustrating me to no end! My preference is to game with WoW in OS X but I cannot like this..
