Open GL 3.3 error
Have a mac, reaaaaally want to play this game, I tried three different programs tom run in windows. Tried PlayonMac, Crossover, and Parallels and cannot get it to run.

PlayonMac- program "runs" then closes
Crossover-Open GL 3.3 error
Parallel- Open GL 3.3 error

Running:

MacBook Pro (Retina, 13-inch, Mid 2014), card supports open GL 4.1 which should run the game fine, yes? Trying to avoid having to run bootcamp if possible, but looks like I'm heading that way...


Please help me run this game!!!! Thanks

Anyone, devs?

I'm afraid I can't help you with virtual machines. This game only supports Windows as per the requirements on the store page. For anything beyond that I wish you good luck, but you're on your own.

Ok, so I actually got it to work!

I used VMware fusion 8.5 which supports newer versions of open GL
I then had to use the -gl30 and "old version" trick in the stickied thread and I finally got it to work albeit it runs slow it's playable in low res on my system.
The "old version" trick? The beta thing? I'm trying to get it running on a virtual machine too lol.

Yeah the beta trick. the game runs but is rather laggy and unplayable at times...any tips to max my graphics setings in the vitual terminal?
I can't even get windows installed to play via bootcamp! Ugh. Do you need to install windows on VMware fusion? What are you running it on?

On fusion I have windows 10 running. You dont need a key like you would in bootcamp which has become a limiting factor for me
Well, got it running same as you. Wish it wasn't the old version though. Any idea whats up with the current build?
Wonder how we can problemsolve the current build issue with BB on VM Fusion? Really want to get the current build working.
