While this works for me I have't tested it anywhere else. If you dragged it to your dock, just click it there to start CIV V. Remember the location of the Civ V app from step 2? Thats what you are going to need. You will need the Steam Client running in the background though. Launch the Steam Client! - But do not use the Steam Client to launch the game! In my tests that did not work.

Then use the Finder to move the steam_appid.txt from the Desktop to the '/Users/MYUSERNAME/Library/Application Support/Steam/steamapps/common/Sid Meier's Civilization V/Civilization V.app/Contents/MacOS' folder. Just be sure to choose 'Format' in the top menu and choose 'Make Plain Text' add the number 8930 to the file then save your new file to the Desktop. (This is Steam's app id for Civ5.) Then save and close the file.*EDIT* You can use launch TextEdit to make the new steam_appid.txt file. The only thing you are going to put in this file is the number 8930. This is where you are going to add one file. Here you should see the actual Civilization V executable and a handful of library files. In the Contents folder open up the MacOS folder. ' Choose 'Show Package Contents' from the dropdown. Hold Control and click on 'Civilization V.app. Even better drag it down to the dock to make a shortcut to launch Civ 5 this way. Usually the act of enabling a Dlc will not disable an Iron Man save.

Using the Finder find the game application. Result: Workaround found, minimal changes required and the game is running with expansions and without errors.

The break is caused by the Steam client update and they keep telling us to contact Aspyr. Many players are posting their experiences in the steam community and sending crash reports to Aspyr and Valve, but it doesn't look like anything will be fixed soon. The CPU/GPU basically are doing the same thing as before.Situation: On Oct 6th or 7th Valve rolled out an update to the Steam Client that crashes Civ 5 on game launch. But that didn't change the CPU/GPU utilization.Īs a test, I set AntiAlias to 4x, Performance and Memory to Ultra, then restarted Civ VI and Steam.

The fps counter says 200 fps (at Turn 1) and I also put it in Offline Mode. I also tried adjusting settings in Steam. And I'm just sitting here at Turn 1 with a city in the default (startup) position. It is the CPU and GPU that are running full-out.

I have 64GB, so there's plenty of free memory and in watching it for 15 minutes there's no memory leak. The mod replaced the very few Pride flags the game actually has with the already prevalent USA flag texture from the game. It has the CPU at 958% and memory is 6.7GB. According to the Activity Monitor, Disk usage is minimal and Network usage is minimal. Something isn't right, but I can't figure it out.

And now here I am at Turn 1 and GPU is pegged at 100% and most of the CPU's are running also. So I turned off AntiAlias, set the PerformanceImpact to minimum, and set the MemoryImpact to minimum. If it still doesnt, deleting your cache folder in My GamesSid Meiers Civilization 5 will force. I couldn't follow the step-by-step to bypass the Launcher - the piece-parts aren't where that old article said they were. If it doesnt, you can try restarting the game application.
