Does VC10-pro-3D work/function any better in latest (supported) MacOS vs Windows?

I have new (beefy) Win10-prof system with very good GeForce graphics card, but I also have MacOS under VMware on the same Win10 system.

Should I run VC10-pro-3D in Win10 or run it in the MacOS VM?

I have been using VC-pro-3D for many years now and I recall reading a post (I think by Tim) that said VC works better in MacOS.

Any suggestions?

Hello,
I've been using Shark Pro (the same engine as VC pro) for window and Mac and my opinion is Shark works much better for Windows. Below You will find differences:

1. The performance is totally better for windows. I have MacBook Pro 2017 with Radeon 560 and for windows on bootcamp Shark works faster. Also faster than Mac with parallel.
2. "Model to Sheet" is incomparably better for windows. I mean bugs, projections views, views in frames and speed of reaction.
3. Controlling the rotation and zooming (if You use mouse with scroll wheel) is much comfortable for windows than for Mac.
4. The amount of bugs for modeling seems to be similar for Mac and Windows

5. Only layout and design is better looking for mac :-)

I installed windows for MacBook just because of Shark...

Kind Regards
Magicart
