I run one game, a driving simulator named Assetto Corsa, which is out of development. If it works under 11 it would be by chance. I never thought about there being a problem until my current issue. I got a trial of Parallels ONLY to run one program and I'll have to find another way to do that. Maybe one of my friend has a PC laptop.My son had a gaming computer that he uses for a lot of online gaming. He upgraded to Windows 11 (I did not recommend it!). He has had a bunch of hassles but seems to have ironed them all out. His gaming apps are now getting along with it. I am not sure what he had to do nor do I know what games he plays but he had two 32" 4k monitors that are all filled when he is gaming along with a bunch of gaming equipment. Just not my thing!
I have a gaming PC. Parallels was to run a program that interfaces with my car. For some reason, people who write this kind of software only write it for Windows. An interesting sidelight is Windows 11 on Parallels for an M1 Mac doesn't have COM PORTS (or at least I couldn't find them) which makes it tough to interface even if the software does work.Virtualization has a hard time running games with acceptable performance. There are other apps that fall into this category as well since it isn't just Windows that they need, but access to the GPU to accelerate graphics. With virtualization, you lose that direct access and get a virtual thing.
Stick with a windows-based PC for games.
I'm trying to get it to run the TPC DSC software. All I need to do is zero out the ride height.I tried and tried to get Windows to run the Durametric software under Parallels and it failed to access the OBD port on my car. I originally had Windows 7 running on an old white MacBook that I initially ran EFI tuning software but I gave that computer away to the new owner when I sold the car. I installed the Durametric software on that computer and it ran with no issues.
I could not duplicate that computer running Windows 7 because the installation process for Windows asked for a file format called NTFS when the documentation asked for the standard Fat32 format. I also couldn't locate the drivers that the software wanted to access the USB port.
I finally gave up and purchased a used Lenovo laptop running Windows 10 which runs the software.
What an ordeal.
From what I know about Durametric, you're right. However, there are some packages that come close and I think they have their own display devices. Rennlist has a lot of info.I'm not positive but, from my limited experience those generic OBD devices will not do what I want them to.
