Hardware

Hi Folks,

I’m looking for some information about running TouchDesigner with VMware Fusion 5 on my MacBook Pro (15" mid-2010). Is it really necessary to run it through Bootcamp?

My specs:

CPU: 2,66 GHz Intel Core i7

RAM: 4 GB 1067 MHz DDR3

GPU: NVIDIA GeForce GT 330M (512 MB)

OS: Mac OS X Lion (10.7.5)

Thanks.

Not sure if it’ll even run in Fusion. Definitely runs in Bootcamp though, I used it for a couple shows and it’s not the worst thing by any means.

Thanks for your answer!

Well, i suppose i will have to run it through Bootcamp then :slight_smile:

Thats interesting… it won’t work under parallels though, i just tried. Bootcamp is an interesting idea. Might have to give it a try. Anyone know what i might get off my macbook pro?

I’ve got a 2.7Ghz Intel I7, 16GB RAM, and NVIDA GeoForce GT 650M 1024MB Ram…

It’s a bit of a pain to restart and hop into bootcamp, but really not the end of the world.

Ya you’re computer will definitely get you started. I did a bunch of my first patches (and even shows) on the 2008 model with the GT 330M.
