Is anyone using Trainz Simulator 2 on Mac mini 2014?
I have a new Mac mini with Intel 5000 graphics, 16 Gig memory. Does anyone know if Trainz Simulator 2 will run on my machine?
What does the developer list and the system requirements?

The late 2014 Mini mid and high end Mac Mini have Iris graphs and would work but not the low-end with HD 5000 graphics.
The base low end model will not likely work since it is only 1.4 GHz too.
Thanks for quick response. I did hear from a local friend that he had it running on his Mac mini. I was ab;e to buy for 19.90 Australian $ and installed. It works. Graphics are excellent. Only issue has been very infrequent buffering so it must be pushing the processor.
Which Mini does you friend have? Buffering is caused by the data input not keeping up with the graphics unit.
If the app reads/writes data to disk then it would be due to slow disk access and maybe slow CPU
If the app uses the internet that would mean slow internet.
