P99 on Mac M1 / UTM / Win 11 ARM
 

P99 runing on Mac M1 Pro.
I am running it now on Windows 11 ARM undir UTM.
Default setup of 11 ARM.
Then I use the dgVoodooCpl , Open the MS\x86 folder and copy D3D8.dll, D3DImm.dll and DDraw.dll files into your p99 directory.
Also copy the Exe file it self.
Run a bat file that contains.

C:\Windows\System32\cmd.exe /C Start /affinity 1 .\eqgame.exe patchme

This runs the game fine in 1440 Res , might need some tweaking but at least it run and the Characters modules show, they did not when I did not run the dgVood ( some bug in DX9 impliment in the Win11 Arm)

How is it running on m1 arch? Just curious

it works.... would not want to play all the time like this, problems with pointer speed, and such are there, but when thats solved its sufficiant.

Just tested with Parallels and its much smother and also mouse and keyboard work perfect !
Fully Playable.

you can try adding a boot flag (in boot order => advanced settings) of `devices.usb.enable_mouse=0` and see if that helps. I use that on parallels 16 and it helped my mouse speed issues. However It didn't work in Parallels 17 when i tested it.

Oh you said it works fine in parallels. Are you on 18? I'm curious about that one.

Did you need to do anything different then just installing while on Win 11 parallels? Getting memory read errors when launching the .bat file.

I have that problem too. Has anyone found a solution? I've tried adding /affinity 1 to the .bat file, and I've tried running as administrator, and enabling compatibility mode for Windows XP. No luck so far!

Okay, what worked for me was turning off compatibility mode, turning on "Safe Emulation", not running as administrator, and leaving the .bat file as default.
