Upgrade Video Ram

Hello.


I've been trying to play Tropico 6 on my Mac with no success. My Video RAM is 1.5GB, and the game requires 2GB. I've attached the breakdown of my Mac 2014. Is there anyway to upgrade my Video Ram? I know alot of people on Stream is having this issue as well, so I don't know why Kalypso doesn't release a patch. I spent so much time waiting for the game to load and trying to get it to work, that I didn't qualify for a refund! Maddening!!!!


Any help anyone could give would be greatly appreciated.


Mac mini, macOS 10.13

Not sure if there is a third-party eGPU solution but, according to this Apple article:


Use an external graphics processor with your Mac - Apple Support


eGPU support requires a Mac with Thunderbolt 3 ports; the 2014 Mac Mini has thunderbolt 2.
