Does anyone run VP on a Mac via Parallels?

Does anyone play VP on Mac via Parallels? My last Mac was Intel and I played VP in a Bootcamp partition and it worked fine. My new one has the M4 chip so it can't Bootcamp but I have Parallels running on it. Base game runs fine through Parallels. But when I try to run 4.20.1, the game loads fine, but after I enable the mods and set up a game, after the "can you build a civ that will stand the test of time?" screen I get an insta-defeat. I think it must have something to do with the way it's installing rather than chip compatibility since vanilla is working fine, but I can't figure it out. Anyone know anything about this?

Oh wow that would be incredibly helpful, thank you so much for offering that!

The installer is likely not putting the files in the correct places, follow the manual installation instructions on the How To Install thread.

I do and it works as expected.

Thank you for your reply, it's good to know that it is possible. Did you run the auto-installer? Or did you have to make adjustments?

I did run the auto-installer. I didn't need to change anything else.
