Mac silicon

[diamonddriller]

About to change from an Intel Mac to M4.

Would you be kind enough to list the planes you sell that are ready for Mac silicon (universal binaries, or however you set the installer)?

Thanks.

DA40NG, SR20 G1000, SR22 Entegra, SR22 G1000, CJ525, G5, G500, and both Islander BN2 variants are ARM compatible.

Thanks Cameron for your prompt reply.    Those are enough to get me going

Your systems requirements on the product page merely states the minimum version of the Mac OS, and I didn't see anything in the manuals, so your list is very welcome!

M4

Which model?

[diamonddriller]

@Pils  M4 Max Studio.  40 core GPU version.  That should be fine for a few years!

Should just about be good enough for XP12!

Max chips run X-Plane really well. He'll have a great experience for years to come.

Any news on other planes in the "fleet" that are shortly going to be ARM compatible?

No news to give!

Well, the old exxpression:  "No news is good news"   does not apply - and I have my tongue in my cheek 

It'll be when it'll be.   Of course, I appreciate the fact that developers are often a one or two-man band, and probably have a "regular" job as well.  It's a lot of work, and (in this case) no real return, unless you charge an upgrade fee.  Actually, I think that's more than acceptable.   It's one thing to get bug fixes and the odd extra feature for free, but a rewrite of a lot of code for a percentage of the customer base is another matter, and a few dollars for that would be fine.
