Can I run the game on a new MacBook Pro?

[stone charm]

pls help i know jackshit about pcvr

[buoyant tartan]

definitely not

you would need a windows computer to run ITR in the first place

and a powerful one at that

[cold coral]

i dont even know how macbook specs compare to typical pc components, but id be concerned as to wether or not it even supports mac

[stray hollow]

itr 2 is windows only anyways

I remember when i took a mac over a pc

sold it

[reef axle]

i seriously doubt itr supports mac, last i heard its a major pain in the ass to get supported on mac and also costs money

[fierce cradle]

it is very much a pain in the ass to get supported on mac

and very pricey just to do it

[dapper karma]

If you have a powerful Mac and you get Microsoft emulator, then maybe

Not sure about the second game but it has the specs to run the first one for sure

[stone charm]

sick thx

[fierce cradle]

Uh, I doubt a mac at all can even run itr 1 either 1.0 or 2.7 as mac's aren't all that powerful when compared to Intel, amd or, nvidia hardware

And apple doesn't like people upgrading the hardware on their products on their own accord

[dapper karma]

If my oculus can run it, a new Mac can run it. They have powerful processors to compensate for slightly weaker graphics

[fierce cradle]

Oculus is ment to run vr and the pc version of itr 1 is different than the quest version of itr 1

Not just in graphics

Itr and almost all Pcvr games on steam aren’t supported by macOS. Very small chance you will be able to play it unless you emulate windows, and even if that works you still have to deal with if your mac can run it or not.

[fierce cradle]

Yeah, the hardware on mac's can be quite shit just running even non-vr games to begin with

I seen it first hand as I used to know someone who played fallout 4 on a MacBook, with windows loaded on it not emulated, but it ran at like 10 fps when he was playing it mostly due to the hardware limits the system had and not the software

[dapper karma]

OP said they have a new Mac, the new ones should be able to run it on low graphics settings

But yall are right it’s about a 50/50 chance it works

They won’t know till they try it out

[cold coral]

there absolutely are powerful macs

compatibility is the main issue

[dapper karma]

That’s why you get a Microsoft emulator, effectively turns Mac OS into windows

[fluid edge]

You could also always just dual boot windows on your Mac and run it that way. Who knows if the hardware is good enough though.

[stray hollow]

I used to use that in my mac days

I remember taking it over a pc

then i bought a pc a few years later

[dapper karma]

Hell yea brother same I used to play republic commando and old battlefront

Good times
