Only if you are running 10.4.11 on the MacTel. If you are running 10.5, it probably won’t work correctly.  10.5 does not like older, CFM applications.

I have been running Modeler v4 on an Intel iMac with 10.5.2 with only a few problems.  It doesn’t like Spaces very much, it also crashed constantly until I turned off Tooltips.  The rulers also don’t display correctly, aside from that, seems to work real well for a lot of the modeling I am doing.

Really, ok so did you purchased a new dongle from EITG and that will keep you running the modeler? or how did you work around the dongle thing? I dont mind about some of the minor artifacts.i just want to use the get to know again modeller to give it a try. It sucks that it doesnt work as well on intel machines that is one thing i alwys mistake for. I got a MacBook Pro and the software doesnt run perfect. Ok let me know dude.

Same dongle I use for Animator (Duo).  I didn’t expect it to work, but it seem to be OK.
