SEQ and M1 macbook

[xerxes]

Hi Folks,

Has anyone had any joy getting together a stable linux VM (parallels), and able to get SEQ up and running?

If you have:

What ARM based linux flavor did you use?
Where did you find qt4?
Any other package dependencies you came across?

Would love some help getting this working - not even sure its possible to share network traffic between VM's under parallels...

Cheers!

Are you also playing EQ on the Mac? I did not have much luck doing so. It works, but gets extremely hot to the touch.

I'm playing EQ on a 2021 M1 Pro using Crossover. Works great; no overheating.

I'm on a 2019 Intel Mac with Crossover and the CPU is pegged at 100% the entire time eqgame is running, even with edits to the eqclient.ini to spread the CPU affinity and allow it to use all cores.
