Does not run on Parallels ARM VM

I've installed Windows 11 ARM on my M2 Mac mini with Parallels. 

Both Full and Demo versions cannot be launched. The code error I get is 

___________________________________________

############################################################################################

ERROR in

gml_Script_anon_app_initialize_gml_GlobalScript_app_initialize_14001860_app_initialize_gml_GlobalScript_app_initialize (line 234)

gml_Script_app_initialize (line 271)

gml_Object_control_Create_0 (line 1)

Does it have to do anything with the ARM architecture and the environment of a VM?

What can be done to make it executable?

Hi there,

I'm super sorry, I don't know how I missed this message 馃槬

SpriteMancer is built for x64 systems, so that's probably why you are being unable to run it. I'm unfamiliar with Parallels though, so I might be wrong. Your best chance would be to ask in the Discord community in case there's someone else that managed to get it working.

Just for info it does run on Arm Macs using CrossOver (shown below on M2 Pro)

Only downside is:-


Correct me if I'm wrong but this was developed with Godot? Any chance of creating a Mac export of this awesome tool? 

Thanks,

Ian

x2 on mac export.
