| #1karon_the_orangeJun 06, 2008 8:30:43 | All, So I'm willing to accept that the software isn't supported in OS X. I've got XP installed on my Macbook with bootcamp. The questions is will a normal Macbook run DDi without serious issues? I'm not so much worried about the processors, my macbook only being 1 generation old, but the x300 based video chipset worries me a bit. Anyone know if the x300 chipset meets the video requirements? |

That said, unless it's animated, you only really need 1 fps ;) Keep in mind, however, that it uses DirectX and parallels doesn't tend to handle DirectX applications very well. If you're using bootcamp, there's less likely to be a problem. |

| #5t1ckt0ckJun 07, 2008 23:39:08 | Has anyone tried running this under a VM? Such as a XP box running under VMWare Fusion? I'm not a Windows fan and refuse to give it space on my hard drive. I have a new MacBook Pro so I don't think resources would be too much of an issue... |

I have a new MacBook Pro so I don't think resources would be too much of an issue... The problem with VMs is that they use flat 2D video drivers/virtual video cards. As the Visualizer and Game Table are 3D applications this won't likely work for those components. |
