It is running Rhino V4 and in-house builds of V5 very well. I am running VMware Fusion 2.0.1 on my MacBook Pro.

XAHO uses MacBook Pro - ATI X1600 - 2Gb ram - OS X - Win XP Pro. If you want a virtual machine in OS X for Rhino, this is the one: V1.0 now working perfectly for Rhino 4 with Win XP and much better than Parallels! One user now reports that Rhino 4 crashes a lot when using Parallels 3.0, so Parallels may no longer be a good option for running Windows Rhino 4 on OS X.

Note: The reports above came from users running Parallels 2.0. I have parallels 3.0, on a MacBook core 2Duo 2.0 and works fine. There is some lag in the interface because the video card is entirely emulated, but overall it is working fine.

I configured my virtual Windows system with a single-core 2GHz processor (software limitation, only one core can be used), 1 gig of RAM, and a 40 gig hard drive. My machine is a Mac Mini with a 2GHz Intel Core Duo processor, 2 gigs of RAM, and a 100 GB 7200 RPM hard drive. Hi, I just wanted to let you guys know that Rhino works on OS X under Parallels Desktop for Mac. You can find the complete story (sorry, only in German) on our following web page: Hi, I have set up Apple's Mac Mini with Bootcamp and Rhino. The good news is Parallels V5 seems to work just fine. The bad news is I could not duplicate the user crashes. Next I installed Penguin 2, ran it's SR2 update, and set up a simple rendering with shadows turned on.

I downloaded and installed the SR8 update and that went smoothly too. Then I installed Rhino V4 SR6 from the CD and ran it without errors. I added a new 32-bit Win7 installation and ran all the Windows Critical Updates. The V5 installer complained that I needed to allocate more memory for accelerated graphics so I did. I didn't have any problems with the install. I installed Parallels V5 on my MacBook Pro.

Both sounded like display driver related symptoms to me. I have received two reports of users with Rhino V4 crash problems and Penguin with shadows turned on in Parallels V5. We rendered the Human Head 2 sample model by Maxwell without any problem, so we think Parallels Desktop is a good way for using Rhino on Mac before a stable version of Rhino is released for this platform. Our Mac Mini with Parallels 3D acceleration ran Rhino's samples smoothly. We successfully installed Rhino 4.0 on Parallels Desktop 3.0.

Sorry, but there's just no other answer or solution for this situationвЂ¦ I do know that iRhino works pretty well, but that's obviously because the OS has native support for the hardware, and the entire OS X is based on OpenGL and depends on accelerationвЂ¦so it had better workвЂ¦and it does. The user has dialed down the hardware acceleration setting inside Windows' display settings Troubleshooting section.

There is a process by which you can get modded desktop drivers to install using a utility called MobilityDotNet. And for most people running Windows on these systems, there is little hopeвЂ¦.exceptвЂ¦. In other words, there is no hardware acceleration available in the drivers provided by Bootcamp. The issue isn't that Rhino is not seeing the ATI card, it's that the Bootcamp drivers do not support or provide an ICD in their drivers. The X1600 is probably one of the worst supported cards for OpenGL on Windows, and it's not all that great hardware either, which is probably why Apple ditched them almost immediately for NVIDIA in their MacBooks. I'm afraid the outlook is grim in this situation. MacBook Pro with ATI X1600 graphics under Bootcamp Parallels Desktop is staggering a few steps behind Fusion and bringing up the rear. On my MacBook Pro, Rhino performance is an order of magnitude better. Then you have access to all your RAM, all your processor cores, and access to the accelerated hardware provided by your graphics chip. Still, neither can hold a candle to the performance of rebooting to the Bootcamp partition and running Windows directly.
