G'Day All,
I'm starting to consider switching my games (I only own BF games, so that part is easy) from my aging PC to my new iMac with the latest version of Sierra installed. Hardware wise this should be fine with 16 GB of RAM within the 5K iMac 27" with SSD. The reason for the switch is that BF are the only games/simulations I'm playing now (and CM, at that) and all my actual work, etc. is done on the Macs (I have an LT as well, but won't be using it for CM), thus the PC days are numbered I suspect. In terms of CM I have all the current versions including Game Engine 4 for all except CMFI. Now I have read in one forum where a chap was switching to a Mac and it was recommended he do the installs in increments rather than trying to do it all at once, so I'm aware of that much at least. So my questions are:
1. For anyone that has run CM2 on both PC and Mac's (assuming comparable machine specs), do you have a preference of one over the other? This switch is not a done deal and I may opt not to do it depending on various factors.
2. Are there any performance penalties/enhancements of one over the other that you saw?
3. I'm assuming I would need to repurchase the set (makes sense - totally different OS), but want to confirm that.
4. Assuming "Yes" to #3, are the current games being sold now the latest version (i.e. GE4), or would you still have to go through the full update procedure after installing the base game(s)?
Thanks very much for the help.
Glenn
PS - I too would love to see a Commonwealth module for CMFB!
