Riot Game’s first-person-shooter, Valorant, won’t be compatible with Mac operating systems on release. Riot’s intense anti-cheat, Fog of War, doesn’t play well with Mac OS, which is known for its stubborn security. Luckily, there’s a simple workaround for Mac users interested in playing the game that doesn’t involve shelling out big bucks for a new PC.
Boot Camp is the most popular software to run Windows-only games on Mac. The software allows users to install Windows onto their system easily. That means you can use it to set up your Mac for Valorant by following a few steps. You’ll step foot on the battlefield in no time!

Any recent Mac device supports Windows 10. Here is a full list of compatible devices:
There are a few things you’ll need to check off the list before you set up Windows on your Mac OS.
Step 1: Open Boot Camp Assistant
Boot Camp is installed on all Mac devices. When running the software for the first time, it will prompt you to select a number of options. Click “Choose…” on the right side of the “ISO Image” option. Navigate to the ISO file you downloaded in the prep stage. Boot Camp will copy your file onto your USB stick. Then click “Continue”.
Note: In this step, make sure the USB you want to save your files to is selected under “Destination disk.”
Step 2: Download driver software
Boot Camp assistant will automatically download all Windows 10 and 8.1 drivers to your memory stick. If you’re installing Windows 7 (which is the earliest version of Windows supported by Valorant), you’ll need to head over to Apple’s site to locate the necessary drivers.
Step 3: Partitioning
To make room for Windows on your system, you’ll have to separate the system’s hard drive into sections, known as “partitions.” There’s a slider (the dot between sections) that you can use to allocate more or less space to Windows.
Step 4: Installing Windows
After partitioning your hard drives, Boot Camp will shut down your system and automatically launch the Windows installer from the memory stick. Follow the prompts as they come up during installation. When Windows successfully boots, you’ll be prompted to install the other drivers.
Step 5: Running Windows
Now that you’ve installed Windows, you can dual-boot between the operating systems. Pressing Alt (aka Option) when your system is turning on will bring up the partitions to choose from.
Congratulations! You’ve set up Windows on your Mac device. Now you’re ready to download Valorant and pop some heads.

LibriVox is a hope, an experiment, and a question: can the net harness a bunch of volunteers to help bring books in the public domain to life through podcasting?
LibriVox volunteers record chapters of books in the public domain, and then we release the audio files back onto the net. We are a totally volunteer, open source, free content, public domain project.
See also: How To Get LibriVox Audio Files
LibriVox volunteers narrate, proof listen, and upload chapters of books and other textual works in the public domain. These projects are then made available on the Internet for everyone to enjoy, for free.
There are many, many things you can do to help, so please feel free to jump into the Forum and ask what you can do to help!
See also: How LibriVox Works
Most of what you need to know about LibriVox can be found on the LibriVox Forum and the FAQ. LibriVox volunteers are helpful and friendly, and if you post a question anywhere on the forum you are likely to get an answer from someone, somewhere within an hour or so. So don't be shy! Many of our volunteers have never recorded anything before LibriVox.
We have three main types of projects:
Not all volunteers read for LibriVox. If you would prefer not to lend your voice to LibriVox, you could lend us your ears. Proof listeners catch mistakes we may have missed during the initial recording and editing process.
Readers record themselves reading a section of a book, edit the recording, and upload it to the LibriVox Management Tool.
For an outline of the Librivox audiobook production process, please see The LibriVox recording process.
We require new readers to submit a sample recording so that we can make sure that your set up works and that you understand how to export files meeting our technical standards. We do not want you to waste previous hours reading whole chapters only to discover that your recording is unusable due to a preventable technical glitch.
A book coordinator (commonly abbreviated BC in the forum) is a volunteer who manages all the other volunteers who will record chapters for a LibriVox recording.
Metadata coordinators (MCs), help and advise Book Coordinators, and take over the files with the completed recordings (soloists are also Book Coordinators in this sense, as they prepare their own files for the Meta coordinators). The files are then prepared and uploaded to the LibriVox catalogue, in a lengthy and cumbersome process.
