Hodor88 Posted February 18, 2016 Share Posted February 18, 2016 Hi, does anyone know if leadwerks editor runs well on parallels desktop with a Intel Iris 6100 on Mac Pro 13"? I'm going to buy a Mac and i dont want to install windows on bootcamp only because of leadwerks. Best Regards Marco Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brutile Posted February 18, 2016 Share Posted February 18, 2016 I'm going to buy a Mac and i dont want to install windows on bootcamp only because of leadwerks. Why not? I'm pretty sure you can choose the partition size, so you don't have to use up half your hard drive for windows. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hodor88 Posted February 18, 2016 Author Share Posted February 18, 2016 "why not use bootcamp" or "why it would not work"? I dont want to use bootcamp because i do not want to switch between the Operating Systems and i want to be able to delete the VM and reinstall whenever i want. A VM is much more flexible, the problem is the performance. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brutile Posted February 18, 2016 Share Posted February 18, 2016 I don't think the Intel Iris 6100 has OpenGL4, so it probably won't run at all. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rastar Posted February 18, 2016 Share Posted February 18, 2016 Parallels only supports OpenGL 2.1 (I think it's similar with other VMs), so Leadwerks won't run, no matter what GPU you have. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tjheldna Posted February 18, 2016 Share Posted February 18, 2016 It works in bootcamp on my 3 yo pro, however I don't get great performance any more. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
