I used to be able to get a decent performance with crossover using DXlevel 80 Just wondering if that's possible with the mac version?

No. It's forced to DX9.

Source Mac uses OpenGL, not Direct3D. So it wouldn't have any impact anyway. You could probably simulate the performance gain by disabling some components, like specular, phong & HDR.

Source Mac is locked to DXlevel 9, as it has a DirectX 9-compatible interface for OpenGL
