|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Revision | OS Version | CPU | GPU | Result | Tester |
| 3.0 | Windows XP | AMD Phenom II X2 545 @ 3.1GHz | NVIDIA GeForce 8600 GT | Only working on PAL version, don't boot on NTSC. Fully playable. Full speed without any slowdowns, main videos and BGM are broken, and some problems with the audio, but not very annoying. | luken |
| 3.0 | Mac OS X 10.7 | Intel Core i5 @ 1.7GHz | Intel HD Graphics 4000 | Everything's fine. Has some slowdowns in large areas, but the MacBook Air does a great job of handling this game. About 40-60FPS. Fully playable. | ekatts |
| 3.0-415 | Windows 7 | Intel Core 2 Quad Q6600 @ 2.39GHz | AMD Radeon HD 4870 | Fully working with issues. Videos are OK, no graphic glitches are on the list, but sound stutters badly with no BGM at all. Could be solved thru LLE recompile, which is very CPU intensive. | recon |
| 4.0 | Windows | Intel Core 2 Quad Q9450 @ 3.4GHz | AMD Radeon HD 6950 | Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets HD Widescreen Hack | Spartacus |
| 4.0-1340 | Windows 7 | Intel Core i5-4570 @ 3.6GHz | AMD Radeon HD 4870 | FPS ~ 55(US). Some minor speed drawbacks. No glitches in video, sound and music. Playable to the end. | Unruval |
| 4.0-3178 | Windows 7 | Intel Core i3-2310M @ 2.1GHz | NVIDIA GeForce 610M | Fully playable (PAL version), although some speed drawbacks at the beginning and at the Quidditch matches. | HauruI |
| 4.0-5256 | Ubuntu 14.10 | Intel Core i3-3220 @ 3.3GHz | NVIDIA GeForce GTX 650 | Playable. Constant crackling with most sound effects using both HLE and LLE, including the walking sound effect, but nothing as bad as the first game's sound problems. Some slowdown here or there that stabilizes out the more you play, and texturing issues with letters in the menus, but otherwise gameplay is perfect. | Xerxes |
| 4.0-8329 | Windows 7 x64 | Intel Core i7 @ 4GHz | NVIDIA GeForce GTX 970 | Playable and completeable. There is some glitch that stutters the sound from time to time with whatever sound system you choose, also minor slowdowns. Tested with default settings. | unruval |
| 4.0-9281 | Windows 10 x64 | Intel Core i7-750 @ 2.67GHz | NVIDIA GeForce GTX 740 | Will not load. Black screen with no sound. | michael |
| 5.0-4607 | Windows 10 | Intel Core i7-6700K @ 4GHz | NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1080 | Playable. Footsteps and other sounds causes a lot of audio cracklings. FPS are stable. Tested with default settings. | SuperSonic |
| 5.0-4700 | Windows 10 | Intel Core i7-6700HQ @ 3.5GHz | NVIDIA GeForce GTX 970M | Playable, 30FPS stable, no slowdowns. Sound crackles with footsteps and other audio effects, music unaffected. | ImminentFate |

This Will Be Our Last MacOS Release.
See below for details.
Runs on Catalina, in Beta test.
Won’t run on Catalina.
Next Steps:
- Once the download finishes, run the file to install.
- When G-Wizard comes up, login with your email. It must be the same one you used to register or purchase.
- You’ll get an email shortly that fills you in on all the details of how to run G-Wizard.
- If you get a “Certificate Error”, the fix is easy. For Windows, uninstall using the Windows Control Panel and rerun the install. For Macs, move the G-Wizard Application to Trash and rerun the install.

Note to Mac Users
The releases above will be our last Mac release. We'll leave them up through end of 2020, then we'll take them down as well. We recommend you run G-Wizard on Windows, either on a PC, or on your Mac using a virtual machine.
I am personally sorry to see the Mac go. I own multiple Apple products, and am a committed Mac user, especially where my music software is concerned.
Oh no! Why did you stop supporting Macs?
The short answer is not enough Mac users to offset the increasing pain that Apple has caused developers who want to support the platform.
In the period from October 1, 2019 to April 22, 2020, a little over 6 months, only a little over 300 people logged into G-Wizard from Macs. By contrast, there were about 10,000 Windows users who logged in during the same time. We see similar results for the percentage of people browsing our web site via Mac OS vs Windows, so it isn't just G-Wizard. CNC'ers, as a group, don't seem to be strong Mac users.
It's not surprising, as very little CNC software will run on a Mac.
I'm making this decision in the depths of the Covid-19 situation as well, when business has been depressed and it is important to focus scarce resources.
This is compounded by Apple making it more and more difficult for developers to support the platform, especially small developers like us.
Apple has changed the requirements to run apps with the latest Catalina version of OSX. Before Catalina, it was possible for developers to self-certify their applications. That's the model essentially all general purpose computers have used since the beginning.
With Catalina, that's much harder. The preferred method is for Apps must go through Apple's App Store. That's considerably more overhead for small developers like ourselves. It also means that new features and bug fixes will arrive on the Mac platform more slowly than on the PC Windows platform. We think that's a shame.
We spent time investigating what it will take, but we do not have a version that will install on Catalina via the App Store at this time. Even Apple realizes Catalina is a real curve ball as they have announced they would temporarily (slightly) relax Catalina's requirements. We are taking advantage of the extended timeframe by releasing versions that will install via download on Catalina. We consider those versions to be in Beta Test.
One of our greatest concerns is that having sealed off OSX from self-certified apps, Apple will be in a position to demand a revenue share from every app that runs on their machines. They already do this for mobile apps on iOS and that share is substantial. We have had iOS prototypes of our software running for years, but did not choose to bring them to market because the Apple revenue share is just too expensive. If they choose to implement a revenue share on OSX apps, that may mark the end of our support for the Apple platform.
Prismatic Wizardry Mac Os X
Apple has never been a big player in the CNC world. Users running on Macs only amount to about 4% of traffic to the CNCCookbook web site and a similar number of sales of our software. As a small business, we can't afford an inordinate cost in supporting the platform.
At some point in the future, we hope to be back on the platform. This will probably happen when we develop thin client (i.e. browser-based) versions of our software in the not-too-distant future.
Sincerely,
Prismatic Wizardry Mac Os Catalina
PS It is possible to disable this Catalina function, and potentially install and run G-Wizard anyway. I'm not fond of this option if only because it isn't something Apple supports and recommends. But, for those that have no other way to run software not set up for Catalina, it may be useful.
