Condor 2 on Mac with M1 ARM Chip
Hello fellow Condor Lovers, as Mac-Users will know, Apple recently brought a new system-on-a-chip solution to the Mac. The M1 is a ARM-chip, that runs rings around Intel Chips for many tasks and it is likely that Apple will transition to M1 all together soon. The major bummer for many users is the l...

Re: Condor2 on Mac with directX 11
After a few weeks of running Condor in Parallels, I have moved back to Bootcamp. With some tweaks, I got it running significantly better after all. For anyone, who hasn't stumbled upon it under Bootcamp: per default the Intel Iris Graphics is set to run in "balanced mode". It got a lot faster, when ...

Re: Mac Os
I don't know if you are familiar with Parallels? It allows you to run Windows in a virtual machine, essentially like an app under MacOS. Since macOS Catalina and Parallels 15 there is DirectX 11-support. I installed it recently on a MacBook Pro 2016 and I have actually been getting some descent fram...

Re: Condor2 on Mac with directX 11
Update: I played around with my system a little bit more yesterday. I tweaked Windows a little bit, turned off a lot of the system graphic effects, the stuff we used to do, when we were 16 and wanted to not buy new hardware... But easy stuff, no digging around in the registry etc. I managed to get i...

Re: Condor2 on Mac with directX 11
Alright! I gave it a go! I can actually get some descent frame rates with medium settings on my MacBook under Parallels. If I set the resolution to 1440x900 and everything else very low, I will get about 55-60 FPS. If I increase the settings to medium, I will get about 40-45. It's not great, it has ...

Re: Condor2 on Mac with directX 11
I tried running Condor V1 under the new Parallels, which worked like a charm. Fan RPM stayed relatively low. I tried running Condor V2 under Bootcamp, which also worked like a charm. Fan RPM did spin up a lot. I'd be more than happy to run Condor V2 under Parallels, to see if it works. It's a bit of...
