Have you ever played Minecraft on an M1 Mac



Hey!



After reading the reviews for the new Macs, especially the MacBook Pro, I'm very interested in switching from my Surface Pro 4 to a Mac. I was a Mac user in the Snow Leopard to Mavericks days, but I changed to Windows a few years ago.



I have a variety of programs I use that I've heard users say that work perfectly on M1 however do you know if Minecraft (Java) can be played on an M1 Mac? It's among my favorite games, and I don't think I could replace my PC with a computer that doesn't run my favorite game. I know Java exists for ARM but I haven't heard of anyone playing Minecraft on an M! Mac!



Thanks! (Hopefully I put this post in the right place!)



Highly recommend it. Performance-wise, the M1 Mac will blow your mind. It's only a matter time before Minecraft is optimized for the M1. You can run either version until then. Bedrock (because M1's can natively run apps for iOS and iPadOS currently) as well as Java (translated in real time running Rosetta 2 which is built in. You won't even notice the difference.



I tried to side load Minecraft to my M1 Mac, but the mouse and keyboard would not work. How did you side load it?



yes



Information from the video: Java does not have a native M1 app , therefore it has to utilize Rosetta 2 Emulation.



he compared the Baseline 7-core GPU MacBook Air to the Baseline 8-core GPU MacBook Pro. The MBP produced the world (same seeds on both) at a rate of a second however the MacBook Air seemed to be receiving a little better FPS for some reason (he was using the same settings for graphics on both).



This comparison is not perfect. He left vsync running and the FPS is limited to 60 FPS. minecraft pixelspark servers It would have been interesting find out how high it could really go.



The iOS, Android, and Windows 10 Minecraft versions all work well together. However, the Pocket Edition Realms server will not allow for the PC and Mac versions to play each other. In other words If you own an iOS device and your friends are all on Android you can still play together.
