  1. Hi to all Mac players, glad to see, I'm not the only one who's playing the game on a Mac. Here comes my solution (at least it works for me): 3DX is nearly perfect playable with Bootcamp on Windows 10 64bit. No issues with camera, flickering or anything else. What I had to do was updating the driver for my Nvidia gfx board after a fresh install of bootcamp. I have to say, my iMac is not the newest one (2012) and the gfx card is outdated too (GeForce GT 640M 512MB). But it doesn't matter, its playable in high graphics settings, at least when there are not too much people in a room. If so, I just switch some gfx settings back to lower. I upgraded my Mac to OS Catalina, including all updates followed all steps of the bootcamp installation assistant step by step installed a new Windows 10 64 (you can download it from the ms website) bought a cheap win license on eBay downloaded and installed the latest Nvidia drivers for win installed the latest 64 bit version of the game, including latest patch (400) and that's it Also, for those of you experimenting with VMware Fusion ./. 3DX, here comes my hints: You can install it without any issues and it will work, but keep in mind, that's an emulator and in most cases - at least on older Macs - its only playable on lowest graphics settings and in windowed mode. I had same probs with camera rotating first. It doesn't work. Solution, that worked for me: Start the virtual machine in windowed mode (do a real system start, not a pause / resume), switch to fullscreen mode and start the game itself in windowed mode. The "unity" mode doesn't work. Thats why I guess it's the same prob with the "Coherence" mode of parallels. For me, now I got the best usable solution for older Macs, as I can use the world editor on Fusion while running my MacOS / other apps and if I like to play, I will reboot the machine with bootcamp.
