<!-- script:Aliases [] --> | ||
|
||
{{#template ../templates/rating.md status=Platinum installs=Yes opens=Yes}} | ||
|
||
## Setup | ||
|
||
- Install in Steam as normal. | ||
- In Whisky, find `Homeworld3.exe` in the Installed Programs list and run it. | ||
|
||
> [!NOTE] | ||
> The game crashes on start if DXVK enabled. Disable DXVK in the Whisky Bottle Configuration if reusing a DXVK Steam bottle. | ||
## Steam Performance Tweaks | ||
|
||
Changing the following Steam settings improved the FPS by 5-10: | ||
- Steam Settings -> Broadcast -> Privacy setting => Broadcasting Disabled | ||
- Steam Settings -> Remote Play -> Enable Remote Play => False | ||
- Library -> Homeworld 3 (right click) -> Properties -> Launch Options => `-nojoy` | ||
|
||
## Mac Performance | ||
|
||
The below table shows the FPS for the in-game benchmark of an intense battle at varied Overall Video Quality. | ||
FPS varies greatly depending on the number of objects and effects on screen. | ||
These tests were run on an Apple M3 Max with 128 GB RAM, 16 CPU cores, and 40 GPU cores. | ||
The configuration included Windows 10, DXVK disabled, Retina enabled, MSync enabled, and the previously mentioned Steam tweaks. | ||

Other notes: | ||
- To run the benchmark yourself, go to the video settings, apply the desired settings, and hit the `Run Benchmark` button. | ||
- Changing the upscale algorithm in the video settings had no noticeable effect on FPS. | ||
- Epic quality seemed to hurt FPS without much more detail. | ||
