Native Native Apple Silicon port for Vice City (reVC) — Metal, HDR, Game Mode & 1-Command Install

Hey r/macgaming,

I’ve put together a native macOS build of reVC (the reverse-engineered Vice City engine) built specifically for M1+ chip macs

Key Features:

  • Native ARM64 & Metal: Renders through Metal (via ANGLE) natively on M1+ chips. No Rosetta or deprecated OpenGL wrappers.
  • HDR Support: Built-in High Dynamic Range support for compatible Mac displays.
  • (NEW) MetalFX Upscaler: Run the game on any retina device
  • macOS Game Mode: It builds a real reVC.app, so macOS Game Mode turns on automatically while you play.
  • No-hassle setup: Use any version of the game that reVC already supports (Steam, Windows, etc)

UPDATE: I have fixed a few bugs and added MetalFX upscaler
