Running Ventity on a Mac using a Windows emulator

Post by daler6 »

I have been trying to install and run Ventity 3.0.2 32 bit in CrossOver Mac 19.0.2. It seems to install okay, but each time I try to run it, a Ventity menu bar briefly appears, but then the software shuts down immediately. This happens on both my MacMini and my MacBookPro. Has any had any success in running Ventity on a Mac using any type of Windows emulator? If so, I would be interested in hearing about your experience.

Sincerely, Dale S. Rothman

What OS version is your emulator running? 7, 8 or 10?

I've been using Ventity on a MacBook Pro (ca 2019), running Catalina, Parallels Desktop with a full Windows 10 environment. (Yes, you need to pay for Parallels AND Windows.) Ventity works well, as does Vensim.
