Myst masterpiece edition box art2/8/2024 ![]() Should players just stick to the forum threads or should they still also do the support tickets as well? Originally posted by Noitalever:It is good to hear that thank you. (It may not be a bad idea to contact them anyway just to let them know about the issue) If this does not work I would contact Cyan support either by emailing them at or creating an account and making a ticket at The terminal prompts for admin password and launches the app, with access to saved games." Here are commands I used to launch Myst III from the terminal (I put this into a shell script to reduce typing - note single quotes around subdirectories with spaces in the name) - this assumes we are starting from the user’s home directoryĬd library/'application support'/steam/steamapps/common/'myst iii exile' But if it still doesn't work, might want to try launching from the terminal as others have found works. Library/Application Support/Steam/steamapps/common/Myst III Exile/Exile.appĪs I said, after this step, launching my app in Steam showed saved games that were not visible before. (4) Click plus sign to add the Myst III application to grant full disk access - look up app location and select it (3) Click the lock icon & enter admin password to allow changes (2) In the left-hand menu select “Full Disk Access” (1) System Preferences - Security & Privacy Once I did this - I found that all my previous save attempts had WORKED - it’s just that I didn’t have ACCESS to them when I came back so that’s why the load-game screen was showing empty!įirst, one-time only, need to grant full disk access to the app: In fact - for myself all I had to do was grant "Full Disk Access" to see my saved games, but another user found that it worked only in combination with then using the "sudo open" command, so I am including both steps here. Then launch the app from the terminal application with the command "sudo open" indicating you have admin rights. Thanks to Cyan support for the help!įirst, grant "Full Disk Access" to the Myst III app in system settings. "On the issue of Myst III not saving games for certain users under Mac OS Catalina - I would like to report results in case it helps other users. It’s an awkward and convoluted means of control, and I found myself more often than not moving rapidly back and forth so I could trick the game into giving me standard mouse-look controls instead of dealing with the Right-Click-to-pan scheme.This is the first I heard of people having this problem with the first Myst game on Mac, but there was a save game issue with Mac users playing Myst III that might also work for his Now you have to hold down right click to pan around, or scroll with the edges of the screen. But when you stop moving in realMyst: Masterpiece Edition, your controls change. This is how first-person games have played since time immemorial. When you’re walking, the game controls like a standard first-person game-that is to say, when you move the mouse your view also changes. It’s a bit disorienting if you did play original Myst, because walking over takes up more time (though there’s a bar to adjust walk speed).įree-roam mode is a mess, however. With Classic controls, Cyan went back in and mapped the original camera angles from 2D Myst onto the 3D environments, so you’re basically playing Myst as it was originally intended, except instead of warping to the next camera angle, your character walks over. RealMyst: Masterpiece Edition also has two control schemes: A “Classic” mode that controls like the point-and-click games of yesteryear, and a free-roam mode that allows you to walk and look around at will. The game looks good, but not that good, and certainly not good enough I should’ve had trouble getting it to run, even at the highest graphics settings. Even with graphics settings dialed down I experienced stuttering. Despite multiple patches since release, the game still slows down for inexplicable reasons. There’s no way of getting around it- realMyst: Masterpiece Edition is poorly optimized. What I don’t love is the amount of frame-dropping in realMyst: Masterpiece Edition. Myst Island is Myst Island, and I still love it even if the design is insane. Nowadays games, especially puzzle games, value a coherency or cohesiveness to the environmental designs that just isn’t present in Myst.īut really that’s neither here nor there. What I mean is Myst‘s fantastical hub world, Myst Island, smashes together elements from four or five very different design schools, and this clashing juxtaposition of the various ages both makes Myst Island visually fascinating and makes it a relic of a type of ’90s hodge-podge design that’s largely disappeared-and that no amount of high-res textures can cover up. Whereas Myst’s sequel, Riven, went with a more naturalistic environment, Myst is a unicorn taped to the hood of a car. The most confusing part, actually, is that you have these amazing graphics on a game that conceptually feels so ’90s.
