Black screen during (in-game) cutscenes
Hey folks!
The last time I played The Witcher 1: Enhanced Edition was a long time ago on my PC. But I'm mostly a Mac user now (I still got my old PC around though). So when I saw The Witcher 1: Enhanced Edtion for the Mac on Steam, I was exited to play this game again (this time on my Mac)!
So I downloaded and installed TW1: Enhanced Edition on my Mac from Steam (for free because I already owned the game for PC) and I was exited to play. But I have a problem that makes playing this game impossible.
The Problem:
When I play TW1: Enhanced Edition on my Mac, sometimes a cutscene does not show up. I hear the audio of the scene, I see the subtitles but I do no't see any graphics, the screen is just black.
This mostly happens with in-game cutscenes, but sometimes it also happens with pre-rendered cutscenes (such as the pre-rendered video with Geralt v.s the Striga).
When my screen is black, I hear the cutscene playing, I hear all the audio, I see all the subtitles (I have subtitles turned on), but I don't see any footage or in-game graphics!
The strange thing is, as soon as the cutscene is over, everything is just fine. I can play the game fine without any lag or any problems. Everything works perfectly, it's just that the cutscenes give me a black screen.
My Apple Mac's specs:
- iMac 27inch, mid 2010 build
- 2.93Ghz Intel Core i7 processor
- ATI Radeon HD 5750 graphics
- 8GB DDR3 RAM memory
- 1TB 7200RPM HDD
