The Mac Client (and the PC Client) still download all 30 'Splash'(Transition) screens every time the game is launched.In particular, a memory-leak has been fixed which appears to have addressed the constant crashing problem, allowing the Mac Client to be run on Ultra-High graphics settings again with no problems.It does make an HTTP request for each splash screen to see if you have the most recent one on disk each time.ġ5.2 As of Update 15.2 in February of 2015, ?all?most? Mac Client specific isues have been fixed. The OSX Launcher will no longer download all the splash screens every time you start it.
