Sunsetting Studio support for Windows 7, 8.1, and MacOS 10.13

Mmm, in a perfect would you would only need 4Gib of RAM, but this is unfortunately not a perfect world :frowning: I don’t even believe Word would run with 4Gib right now…

It did 15 years ago.

Why can’t you make the world more perfect?

i did some intensive multi tasking on a MBA 2012 running windows that had 4gb of ram (while doing stuff that normally takes 7 out of 8gb on my main desktop)

the reason people say to get more memory is they see more memory being used in task manager. software is built to scale and use all ram possible, free ram is wasted ram

This is the same thing that we though with storage we thought that 64gb of storage was enough to take us to the moon but now 64gb is becoming the standard for ram :skull:

There are only three (maybe four) sets of computers that I know of which have at least 64 GiB of RAM:

  1. Chapman University’s Dodge school’s workstations,
  2. The art and engineering workstations at the CSUF library, and
  3. The computers in the Open Lab at Visual Arts Building H at CSUF.

The latter two have 128 GiB and carry RTX 4090s.

theres also all the extended support for windows 10
roblox waited until windows 7 was 100% discontinued (all extended support dates went by, including exceptions) before deciding to drop support, so its likely theyll do the same with 10

Me too, especially when you try to dock tabs, it’s in a whole other level!

Yeah 64gb is pretty overkill even ddr4 for consumer builds even the most demanding tasks i have runed didn’t take more than 20gb and they are getting 64gb of ddr5. :skull:

In addition to requiring Windows users to use Windows 10 or higher to use Roblox Studio, we’re also increasing the requirement for Mac users to use OS 10.14 instead of 10.13. This change will go into effect on March 20, 2025.

Hey sultán Rōblox!

Are there any particular system-level APIs that Mac OS 10.14 has which 10.13 doesn’t.

Do you think in the future we are getting linux performance updates.
