Mugatu Posted February 8, 2008 Posted February 8, 2008 Yep, which mac? I've run it on my Macbook Pro and it was running faster than my shuttle pc. Everything works fine under bootcamp. how is lockon runing on it?

Pilotasso Posted February 8, 2008 Posted February 8, 2008 I never owned MAC nor have I ever considered it for compatibility reasons. Doent these machines have RISC processors wich are much faster? Or its the OS thats more efficient? .
Mugatu Posted February 8, 2008 Posted February 8, 2008 intel processors now, the last used power pc chips many moons ago.
VMFA117_Poko Posted February 8, 2008 Posted February 8, 2008 Intel now - that's correct - Apple stopped puting Motorola processors in their Macs since G6, G5 (?)
Pilotasso Posted February 8, 2008 Posted February 8, 2008 Why? werent they much more powerfull clock per clock? .
mikoyan Posted February 8, 2008 Posted February 8, 2008 A mac Is a computer produced by apple. I actually play lock-on on an imac and works really good. I got everything in full settings. The only bad thing is that boot camp does not support vga adaptors for using several monitors, and I was plannig on using my 27" tv:mad:

mikoyan Posted February 8, 2008 Posted February 8, 2008 the os is very easy to use, lot easyer than vista.
Aeroscout Posted February 8, 2008 Posted February 8, 2008 the os is very easy to use, lot easyer than vista. any thing's easier than vista. DCS Wishlist: 1) FIX THE DAMN RIVERS!!! 2) Spherical or cylindrical panorama view projection. 3) Enhanced input options (action upon button release, etc). 4) Aircraft flight parameter dump upon exit (stick posn, attitude, rates, accel, control volume, control-surface positions, SAS bias, etc). 5) ADS-33 maneuver courses as static objects. 6) Exposed API or exports of trim position and stick force for custom controllers. 7) Select auto multiple audio devices

4c САВО СРПСКИ Posted February 10, 2008 Author Posted February 10, 2008 thx felas Mugatu, I'm not sure yet, which mac I'll purchase, will know more later this year, when I'll be ready to purchase and then I'll check what's hot in mac stores. A friend of mine told me about bootcamp, and u guys here confirmed that it is possible to run lockon with no problems on mac. =4c= SERBIAN VIRTUAL FIGHTERS SQUADRON
PoleCat Posted February 10, 2008 Posted February 10, 2008 Mac lol. I'll pray for your conversion. All 5 or 6 of you.:lol: Out http://www.104thphoenix.com/
VMFA117_Poko Posted February 10, 2008 Posted February 10, 2008 I thought here will be more Mac users from USA... I was wrong.
mikoyan Posted February 10, 2008 Posted February 10, 2008 Mac lol. I'll pray for your conversion. All 5 or 6 of you.:lol: Out there is no need for praying, it just work like a normal pc. I have eveting need to run lock on in my imac. It just works fine. I have other games installed without a problem.
mikoyan Posted February 10, 2008 Posted February 10, 2008 thx felas Mugatu, I'm not sure yet, which mac I'll purchase, will know more later this year, when I'll be ready to purchase and then I'll check what's hot in mac stores. A friend of mine told me about bootcamp, and u guys here confirmed that it is possible to run lockon with no problems on mac. Before you buy or do any conversion, get information about it. There are several options other than bootcamp. The only bad thing is that bootcamp does not support external monitor in some videocards that the apple came from. That is a driver isue,since apple is not developing the drivers for vista. There is another program tha allows you to run windows programs under the mac operating system (but I dont know if it will run lockon on that) Maybe this option can fix the problem for people who whants multiple screens since it works under panter panter OPS.
graywo1fg Posted February 11, 2008 Posted February 11, 2008 i have had less problems with lockon on my mac then on my PC! Voice of Jester AI Death From Above =DFA= Squadron Discord - https://discord.gg/deathfromabove http://www.twitch.tv/graywo1f https://www.youtube.com/user/Lonewo1fg
