My game is on disc and I've been trying to play it on a 2016 13-inch MacBook Pro. Every time I launch it there's just a black screen that never loads. I've tried waiting for as long as 5 minutes all for nothing.
Solved! Go to Solution.

Hi @Nonpointer,
Some Intel cards in the new Macs are not supported by the game, and that seems to be what is happening here.
I'd recommend taking a look to this post by bluebellflora, she is a player who has been trying to make the game work on unsupported computers: http://answers.ea.com/t5/The-Sims-Mac/CURRENT-ISSUE-The-Sims-3-Issues-playing-on-newer-post-2013-Mac...
Good luck!
