Real Direct3D 9 on windows provides upto 8192.Ĭan I play The Ultimate Collection on a Mac using a Windows Virtual Machine? No. Wine support for The Sims 2 has been broken for many years due to The Sims 2 requesting 1024 pixel vertex shaders, yet Wine’s Direct3D implementation only providing 256. Aspyr since released the Super Collection and hence only included the Expansion + Stuff Packs they have ported (9/18).ĮA could potentially port & release the Ultimate Collection for modern Macs themselves, but this would likely take alot of work, to then release it for free probably wouldn't make much business sense.Ĭan I play The Ultimate Collection on a Mac via Wine? Since porting those 9 EPs/SPs on disk a few years ago, Aspyr s topped porting expansion packs due to contracting and licensing agreements with EA, as EA now does all PC and Mac ports for games in house (like TS3). Why does the Super Collection only feature half of the Windows Ultimate Collection? NOTE: The on-disk versions of The Sims 2 Mac are not the same as the recently released Super Collection, and do not include the updated features mentioned above. To check the version of OSX you are running click the Apple logo in the top left, and go to About this Mac. No, unless your Mac runs Snow Leopard (10.6) and earlier. Apple dropped support for running PowerPC applications (like the Sims 2) in 10.7 (Lion). It features a new rendering engine, native support for retina displays, and most importantly works on modern (10.7+) Macs which the on-disk versions don't.Ĭan I buy the Mac version (and any of Aspyr's 6 expansion packs and 3 stuff packs) in a retail store, on disk, and play them on a Mac? It's available in the Mac App Store for £20.99/$29.99. Aspyr (The publisher of the on-disk Mac version) released 6 (of eight) Expansion Packs and 3 (of ten) Stuff packs for the Mac. Is there a Mac version of The Sims 2 Ultimate Collection? Mac Users have to pay £20.99/$29.99 for half the EPs/SPs. Windows users (could) get the Ultimate Collection (all EPs/SPs) for free.
