[Mac screen going black upon processing FM21]

Just to confirm, it goes entirely black, the entire screen? Does it then come back or are you forced to close down?

How long have you tried running in Full Screen mode to be sure it doesn't happen when you're running like that? Just trying to get as much information to try and figure out why you're seeing this

Thanks. 

I play it for as long as I want on full-screen with no issues. But on Windowed, it's as if it puts the screen to sleep then I can play on but if it happens more than once I have to restart the mac from the power button. 

I had the same issue with FM20. But only at the start of our lockdown period. The game was fine in the Beta phase and full release.

Are you running anything custom with your game, such as graphics or any other add-ons? If you are, if you remove them do you have the same issue? 

Let us know, thanks. 

Hi Neil. Nah I’m not running with any add-ons. Also it’s as if it goes to sleep then turns Itself off & this only happens on windowed mode.

 

cheers.

Hi guys, 

During FM20 and now FM 21 on my mac, I have got to a point where when playing the game the screen display goes black at points.

 

Is there anyway to fix this issue?

Mac (Retina 5K, 27-inch, Late 2014)

Processor 4 GHz Quad-Core Intel Core i7

Memory 32 GB 1600 MHz DDR3

Graphics AMD Radeon R9 M295X 4 GB

Any advice would be extremely welcome.

 

Thanks.

This definitely sound like you would need to head over to bug forum. Post your mac info such as graphic, intel processor etc etc. Would be helpful. 

Hi mate, 

 

Thanks for the reply could you point me in the right direction?

 

Thank you.

Hi, 

I was just going through pre-season on my Mac and the screen turned black, had to press the spacebar for it to come back on and then it did it again upon processing. Any helps or tips to stop this from happening?

I have started with Atalanta. Season is over won the Coppa Italia, finished 4th in Serie A & made the CL last 8 so I agree with the post about choosing them as a fun starting save.
