How to Increase the Performance of Dragon Age on a Mac

"Dragon Age: Origins" is a computer game released for Apple computers in late 2009, a month after it was released on all other platforms. Like the Windows version, owners of the game can have trouble running "Dragon Age: Origins" if their computer does not meet the recommended requirements. To increase the game's performance on your Apple computer, you can change some of the video options in the game.

Instructions

- 1
  Load "Dragon Age: Origins" to the main menu.
- 2
  Select "Options," followed by "Video."
- 3
  Change the resolution to the lowest available option. The smaller the screen, the less your processor has to work to run the game.
- 4
  Change the anti-aliasing option to "Off."
- 5
  Change both the graphics and texture detail to "Very Low."
- 6
  Uncheck "Play in Fullscreen Mode," "Vertical Sync" and "Frame-Buffer Effects." Check "Disable Multiple Render Targets," "Disable Aspect-Ratio Correction" and "Disable Intro Movies."
- 7
  Click "Save" to save the settings. Restarting the game may be required.
