However, Microsoft has now introduced Windows On ARM, or WoA. So no, Bootcamp is still not an option on M1 and M2 Macs. Time has a way of resolving issues such as this. More about ARM: One of the earliest drawbacks of using an Apple silicon Mac was that it was impossible to run Intel versions of Windows through virtualization using software such as Parallels or a Bootcamp partition. Games like Counter-Strike: Global Offensive that didn't work in Parallels Desktop 17 now run correctly. The company says 99.9% of Intel apps run successfully on Windows ARM, including resource-heavy titles like AutoCad. Specifically, the saving and reading of files have been improved, and games like Counter-Strike: Global Offensive that didn't work in Parallels Desktop 17 now run correctly. Beforehand, this involved a sometimes complex process of installing Windows drivers and hoping the connection worked. Parallels Desktop 18 also provides improved USB 3.0 support, enabling connected webcams, video capture devices, and audio streaming devices.Ĭorel has also made it much better to run Intel (x86) apps through Windows 11 on ARM. ![]() Color me very surprised to hear anyone can get it to run well enough to use.For example, it's now possible for a game controller connected to your Mac to work in a virtual Windows session. However it seems they’ve solved some recent issues based on the comments above. My point was that it’s unlikely given that just getting Revit to run on a native Windows Arm in compatibility mode is either not possible or very hard and nesting it inside another two layers of interpretations for processor instructions seems like a non-starter. That would be a parallels install (virtual machine) of Windows Arm OS onto a Mac with a virtual machine inside of that (which is what the compatibility mode is) to run Revit. What he asking is if can he run Revit, an X86-64 application, in a nested virtual machine on a Mac Arm based processor. This is similar to a current Mac as they are both ARM based. Surface Pro runs an ARM processor with Windows ARM OS and you can run some X86-64 based applications in compatibility mode on it. It’s about the hardware and software compatibility. My comment is not on how fast they run or how much they can do. It’s good for 14 days and you can move to a paid Pro version without any problem. Load the trial version of Parallels on your Mac and give it a try yourself. So far there was not one single crash of the Revit app, which I find astonishing. I very rarely experience any speed bumps, only on very dense 3D views with a lot of interior furniture in the model. Recently Parallels updated to version 18, which I did from within the app, no problems on that. Win 11 can be easily installed via the Parallels setup. And some Linux distros for testing/programming as well. Parallels Pro version with 32GB RAM dedicated to it, Windows 11 for ARM. Since end of 2021 I switched to a MacBook Pro 16 with a M1 Max chip, 10CPU/32 GPU with 64 GB RAM (maxed out machine). Revit was running „OKish“ with some noticeable speed slow downs on 3D views and the occasional app crash. 8GB of RAM where dedicated to Parallels with Windows 10. ![]() The machine was a MacBook Pro 15 with 16 GB Ram and a Core i7 2,9GHz chip. I switched to using Revit for full project use an a Mac Intel machine, I think Revit version 2018 with Parallels 14/15. I once in a while install the full Revit Version (which runs fine too) to check if I really need it. I would say I’m a mid- not a power user, as Revit LT doesn’t allow Plug-Ins, Dynamo or view filters. rvt files for retail projects are around 100MB in size, some up to 200-250MB. Revit runs within Parallels, the accompanying AutoCad LT as a native Mac app. ![]() I use the Revit LT Suite as I don’t need the full structural or MEP functions. My background: I am an interior architect working as a sole proprietor mostly on retail projects from small to mid size 100 - 2000 square meters. I see from all the other comments who say it doesn’t work (from hearsay), that these guys never really used a Mac environment or Parallels.
