ACR will only work if you use an emulator. I'm not sure if the same applies to CREV and Slice – I haven't looked into it.

I use PT4 for my HUD and play only on Merge and Bovada, though I recently upgraded to a new iMac and haven't been able to get the Bovada client to run (I finally got the instructions how to tweak my security settings but haven't done it yet). I've reduced my volume a lot due to time constraints so I haven't really cared that much nor does it seem worth it to install an emulator so I can play on ACR – though if I do, I'm pretty sure PT4 won't work on it.

I use VMware to play ACR. Poker Tracker will work as long as you run it in VMware.

 

What I'm not clear on is whether you can use 1 HUD database while running poker software on both VMware and the Mac side. I don't see how it would work, so I guess you might as well just run the PC version of everything through VMware.

You can always install the PostgreSQL db on the Mac host os, then edit the postgres conf-file pg_hba.conf to allow network connections from your vmware guest. (the pg_hba.conf file: …..-conf.html)  This way you can point your guest os PT4 installation to the host (Mac) pgsql and use the same db for both os:es. Mind you cannot use two PT4 writing to the db at the same time so you have to choose whether to play all-mac or all-pc at any given time. PT has not complained to my installing it in this way. Yet.

I have my pgsql installed on my synology nas on the network. This way I always get the same pt4-db no matter what computer I run on at home (3 different macs with differrent vmware/parallels virtual machines on them.)
