coaster57 Posted June 27, 2015 Share Posted June 27, 2015 I just got a new Mac Air. It is the OX Yosemite or whatever it is called. I am thinking about purchasing RCT3. Without custom scenery, will the game run fine with out slowing down the computer? Also, will I need universal binary? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CoasterB Posted June 27, 2015 Share Posted June 27, 2015 Hi, I play RCT3 on Mac which I downloaded form the app store. Custom content works fine and doesn't slow my computer down. But you should download a RAR extractor program so that you can download the CS files that are for PC. You just drop the download into the extractor and then place the extracted file into the game.

Do you still think the game will run fine on the laptop version? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blk_mamba Posted June 28, 2015 Share Posted June 28, 2015 I play on a macbook pro with tons of scenery and sometimes the computer runs a little hot but I've never had any delay issues and I have run some pretty big parks, one park with over 7500 peeps.

A.J. Posted June 28, 2015 Share Posted June 28, 2015 (edited) Custom scenery has nothing to do with the performance of the game or what computer you need to run it properly. That being said, your Macbook Air won't run it, period. Intel HD Graphics 6000, which is the only graphics chipset on the current Airs, is not supported according to the game's page on the Mac App Store. Macbook Pros can run it because they have two graphics cards - the Intel one and then a discrete Nvidia one. Now, the 3000 and 4000 might be the only ones on the Mac App Store page because it hasn't been updated since the 5000 and the 6000 came out. You might want to ask Aspyr about it: http://support.aspyr.com/hc/en-us/requests/new?utm_source=MacApp&utm_medium=SupportLink&utm_campaign=roller-coaster-tycoon-3-platinum Edited June 28, 2015 by A.J.

coaster57 Posted June 28, 2015 Author Share Posted June 28, 2015 I checked the requirements, and my processer is 1.4, but the game needs 2. The game agent said I might be able to run it. Will I really be able to if my processee is not up to speed? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
