Hi guys. I'm running PlayOnMac on the mid-2012 15" Retina Macbook Pro. I'm wondering how I can configure POM/Wine so that games use the discrete NVIDIA graphics card instead of the INTEL graphics? I have been using a Mac App called gfxCardStatus to manually force my Macbook to switch to discrete graphics before launching any PlayOnMac games, but I'm not sure if this is the best way to go about it. Sometimes when I open Rift it says that my graphics driver is out of date. Does anyone know how I can configure POM/Wine for best graphics performance on the Retina Macbook Pro? Any advice would be appreciated. Thanks!

Well I also have a Retina Macbook, and when wine needs it, my graphic card automatically swtiches to the good driver, as far as I'm concerned.

If you want to force, gfxCardStatus is a good way
