Frequent freezing during Liyue Archon Quest

[veeberry]

Describe the bug

I started playing Genshin Impact using YAAGL two weeks ago and have experience no to little issues so far. All cutscenes have played perfectly even at the highest quality + full screen. However, today I started the Archon Quest in Liyue and actually got completely stuck on the first cutscene (descension ceremony) to the point where I had to download the game on my phone and play through the cutscene there, just to be able to continue.

The launcher/game does not crash entirely, but the screen freezes while the audio keeps playing. I have tried waiting 10 to 15 minutes to see if it would eventually start playing again, but alas.

The cutscenes which follow all posed similar issues, freezing a few seconds into the cutscene despite the characters just standing there and talking. The only way to fix this is to lower the quality to 'lowest' which is obviously not very enjoyable to play through.

Meanwhile when I'm in the overworld exploring or battling enemies, I can continue to play on the high quality settings and experience no issues at all.

System Information (please complete the following information):

• macOS: Ventura 13.4.1
• Device: Macbook Air 15.3 inch 2023
• CPU: M2
• Dedicated GPU (if any): Apple M2 CPU
• RAM: 8G

I had a similar problem, but in Sumeru. You can try switching to crossover in the launcher settings. At least that worked for me.

Thank you for responding! Where exactly do I find this option? These are the setting I am currently using:

Here, at the end of the list of wine distributions.

And of course crossover must be installed + updated moltenvk from here https://github.com/3Shain/yet-another-anime-game-launcher/wiki/CrossOver:-use-latest-MoltenVK.

i already install the crossover and update the latest moltenvk but its not showing the crossover options. any solutions?

[mary331]

anyone found a solution?

Hmm, I assume you mean solution is for crossover not showing in wine distribution section.

TO BE NOTED u need to install crossover first, I think you don't need to buy it just download the trial version from here

And then you go to this page from above given by @iriabaka to get the file and replace it with the one in /Applications/CrossOver.app/Contents/SharedSupport/CrossOver/lib64

Then after some installation it should appear (at least for me it did)

*PS I am not sure if there will be any problem after 14 day trial for crossover, I didn't start the trial and still able to start the game anyway

Even with replacement, crossover option is not appearing, am I doing something wrong? I installed crossover, and replaced a file.
