Hello. I have an issue with the mac client. I know there is no official support for Apple Silicon processors, but maybe someone can suggest a fix. I’m playing on a Mac Studio with an M1 Max processor. The game runs smoothly, always at no less than 60 fps. However, after some time, usually around 40-60 minutes (sometimes even less), freezes and FPS drops start to occur and no matter how high or how low graphic settings I use. This happens when I rotate the camera or when I move the cursor over any interface element, for example, items in the inventory. I noticed that the time without any issues depends on the location I am currently in. For example, in Asylum Sanctorium and Lair of Maarselok, I have to relog every 15-20 minutes.
I have already written a support ticket, but sadly no working solution was found. Basically, it looks like a memory leak - the longer the client runs, the more memory it consumes which leads to freezing.

Here are some screenshots

    I am having this issue as well on PC
    Massive memory leak which gets worse as you play leads to eventual freezing
    only happens with ESO all other games are fine

    Greetings,

    After further review we have decided to move this thread to a category we think is more appropriate for this topic, as it's about MAC platform troubleshooting.
