It doesn't suck.Important notes and the methodology used to uninstall Tor browser from Mac TL DR: SWTOR works on M1 with Parallels and Windows 10 ARM. Oh and I think it's one of the few times I'm actually grateful this engine's so old )

Think about it, an x86 game running in emulator(!) on Windows VM(!!), running on new Apple ARM chip(!!!). I will try moving it to SSD to see if it helps some things. I'd love to hear some good ol' optimization stuff for SWTOR, I seem to vaguely recall some things being tossed around forums in the days of yore, maybe I could try something here. One important trick seems to be having textures on low as otherwise they are flickering as I think Parallels allows only for 2GB VRAM and they are being constantly shuffled and while it may seem stable it very easily craps itself in this scenario. Probably wouldn't go right now on some fp, lest I ruin someone's day, but it seems pretty good so far. That being said, I must say it's not perfect of course, although I think most of the dropped frames issues seem to stem from slow drive access (I have it installed on external HDD directly attached to VM) - as in, it can hardly keep up with loading stuff, but once it's loaded it seems to play just fine. EDIT: Using 1920x1200 res fullscreen and V-sync (allegedly, I don't think it's working correctly) Lo and behold it runs and even not that bad for that matter, it hovers around holy 60 fps. And I used this thing to run SWTOR for shits and giggles (always had a bit of trouble running swtor on my macs, even on bootcamp, due to hassle, shitty drivers and whatnot). So anyway, I'm using Parallels Technical Preview on the new MBP M1 8GB, on it a bleeding edge Windows 10 ARM Insider release Build 21277 with 8 CPU cores assigned and 5G of RAM. If you're weird like I am, you like to try to run things that weren't meant for the platform you're on, it's fun somehow.
