Fledgling Fyora Kejoki Posted May 8, 2021 Share Posted May 8, 2021 I have been able to create VMs on a Mac running macOS 11 (Big Sur) of older Mac OSes to run Avernum 4 and 5. They run perfectly fine. Avernum 6 does not work in any of the OSes or VM settings I have tried. It looks like there is a graphics card or full-screen issue with the game window. Has anyone been able to get this to successfully work? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fledgling Fyora Kejoki Posted June 1, 2021 Author Share Posted June 1, 2021 I have been creating vms under VMware fusion. I am making Mac VMs, not Windows ones. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Understated Ur-Drakon Earth Posted June 5, 2021 Share Posted June 5, 2021 you didn't say what version of fusion. this https://www.vimalin.com/blog/fusion-12-0-metal-support/ and this https://blogs.vmware.com/teamfusion/2021/04/fusion-on-apple-silicon-progress-update.html might help.

Fledgling Fyora Kejoki Posted June 6, 2021 Author Share Posted June 6, 2021 (edited) Fusion is 12.1.2. The bare-metal support isn't going to work, because it is for virtualized macOS 11 (Big Sur) VMs. Avernum 6 is definitely not supported in that (BigSur) OS. My Avernum 4-5-6 disc is Mac only, which is why I have been trying to get a Mac VM up and running that can support 6. As a test, I fired up a Win10 VM and the demo version of Avernum 6 seems to work A-OK there. Edited June 6, 2021 by Kejoki Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Understated Ur-Drakon Earth Posted June 9, 2021 Share Posted June 9, 2021 good that you got it working you can request registration keys from jeff vogel. if you need registration key contact jeff vogel. you could ask from jeff vogel if he has any ideas how to get a6 to work properly on big sur vm and also ask tips on vmware forum (answer might be that you need older fuaion).
