Warcraft I & II Remastered in Parallels on Windows11ARM

Warcraft I & II General Discussion
1

Hello,
I have an Apple Silicon Mac running Windows for ARM using Parallels.
When I start Warcraft I or Warcraft II Remastered, I got just a black screen with gray standard mouse pointer.

that is because windows 11 no longer supports 32 bit apps on ARM and warcraft 1 and 2 remastered is 32 bit. your only hope is for blizzard to release 64 bit versions. in the mean time you have to use an older version of windows. here is the thing: i have never tested windows 10. i know for a fact that it runs in windows 7 and 8.1 however, as i have tested those versions of windows.

Thanks for the explanation!
I guess my only choice is to connect back an old MacMini intel based to play it then :slight_smile:

So I found someone who brought EV Nova (circa late 90’s-early 2000’s) to today’s Macs using some techo-magic involving a Wine wrapper or some such. I feel like if it is possible for a handful of people to make that work in their spare time, Blizzard shouldn’t have any issue performing the same magic.

Maybe we will get lucky and someone on their staff will see this and work some magic?
