Echo0311 Posted November 27, 2006 Posted November 27, 2006 Hi All, I know macs are runing on Intel CPUs and it is possible to run windows on them. I read somewhere that windows games do run just fine on Intel Base Macs. Has anyone tried runing Lock on yet?
wasserfall Posted November 27, 2006 Posted November 27, 2006 I really don't know, but it should run fine, as a Mac is now really a luxery PC Intel Core i5-9600K, Gigabyte Z390 AORUS PRO, 16GB Corsair Vengeance RGB Pro, Gigabyte GeForce RTX 2080 WINDFORCE 8G
Ardillita Posted November 27, 2006 Posted November 27, 2006 I don´t think it will run just because of something very basic: FC(lockon is meant to be installed on Windows, MACOS X is just not windows (not even close). You will just be unable to launch the installer. Another story would be if you tell me that you installed windows on mac hardware.
yamangman Posted November 27, 2006 Posted November 27, 2006 Why would you want to run anything on a Fisher Price "My First PC"?
Echo0311 Posted November 27, 2006 Author Posted November 27, 2006 Well, To explain this a little better...You can run windows XP or Vista on macs from now on. Using Apple boot camp software and intel processor, not to mention Unix, user can launch any windows based apps including video games. I know that Unreal, r6, farcry and other games run just fine. However, I did not hear anything about LockON. Just a question, Thats all. Yamangman...Let's not go there. Thanks
firesoldier845 Posted November 28, 2006 Posted November 28, 2006 Yeah I've run it on my Macbook Pro under bootcamp. It runs actually quite good. Infact I was kinda suprised at the performance. Your not going to be able to run everything at high or anything like that but MEDIUM to LOW settings its fine on MBP 2.16ghz. I don't have it installed anymore though because I just have really no reason to have it on there since I play LockON with my desktop. I just was curious how it would run. I un-installed it to save space so I can't go and check anything for you now, but it does work fine.
Echo0311 Posted November 29, 2006 Author Posted November 29, 2006 Cool! Thanks! I'm planing on getting 20" Imac with x1600 256ram. Hopefuly it would run fine. If not I'll use my PC :)
paskozool Posted November 29, 2006 Posted November 29, 2006 It runs very well on my MacBook Pro. I have every settings set to high and it runs flawlessly at 1440x900. Quite impressive actually. My setup : macbook pro 2,33ghz, 2g ram, runs under win xp pro
firesoldier845 Posted November 30, 2006 Posted November 30, 2006 Cool! Thanks! I'm planing on getting 20" Imac with x1600 256ram. Hopefuly it would run fine. If not I'll use my PC :) I really wish Apple would include as a BTO option a better graphics card for iMac. I'm pleased with my x1600 Radeon but would gladly have paid for a better card if they would give option. I think Lomac should run fine though. The X1600 in iMac is clocked a lot faster than the one in MBP.
