Anyone played Minecraft on an M1 Mac?



Hello!



The reviews of the latest Macs, especially the MacBook Pro, make me think of upgrading my Surface Pro 4 to a Mac. I was a Mac user during the Snow Leopard to Mavericks days, but I switched to Windows some time ago.



I have a variety of software I use which I've seen people say work fine on M1 however do you know if Minecraft (Java) is compatible with an M1 Mac? It's one of my favorite games, and I don't think I could replace my PC with a computer that didn't run my favourite game. Java is available on ARM however I've not heard of anyone playing Minecraft on an M! system32 Mac!



Thanks! (I hope I posted it in the correct place!)



Highly recommend it. Performance-wise, the M1 Mac will blow your mind. It is only a matter of time until Minecraft is optimized to the M1. You can run both versions until then. Bedrock (because M1's are able to natively run iOS/iPadOS apps now), AND Java (translated real-time running Rosetta 2 that is built into. You won't notice a difference).



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



Yes



Information from the video: Java does not have an native M1 app , therefore it has to make use of Rosetta 2 Emulation.



he was comparing the Baseline 7-core GPU MacBook Air to the Baseline 8-core GPU MacBook Pro. The MBP produced the world (same seeds on both) like a second quicker however the MacBook Air seemed a bit quicker for some reason (he was using the same settings for graphics on both).



The issue with this comparison is that he kept the vsync feature on, which means that the FPS limit is set at 60 FPS. It would've been interesting to find out how high it could really go



iOS, Android and Windows 10 versions of Minecraft all play well together, whereas the PC and Mac versions of Minecraft won't work with the Pocket Edition Realms server. In other words, if you have an iOS device and your friends are all playing on Android it is still possible to play with them.
