Feedback on new PMNG beta (64 bits) on MacOS M1 (Monterey)

Using on Mac
#1

Hi! I just wanted to share my feedback running the latest Pro Motion beta on Mac with M1 processor.

I’m on Monterey 12.3.1.

First of all, you no longer need Crossover!
I am running it with wine-stable (7.0) and it works superb.

The UI feels very responsive, as opposed to the 32bit version that lagged a bit (probably for having to run wine on rosetta).
The dark mode still doesn’t work (the program windows gets cut and is unusable) but it’s not important for me.
Everything else seems to work fine, and smooth! I will keep using it and see how it works and sharing my thoughts with you.

Great job with the 64bits Jan!

Thank you for the feedback. It’s good to know things are getting better for Pro Motion users on the Mac. I’m running Pro Motion NG through Windows in a Parallel’s VM under macOS Monterey. It works apart from some annoying cursor glitches.

Indeed a valiant effort by @jan.cosmigo on the 64-bit port (and the oh so lovely dark mode, which really saves my eyes).

Here’s to hoping for a native macOS version one day soon. :beers:
