Good afternoon! I am going to buy a Surface Pro 4 for job and school and I was just wondering if someone here have tested SimSig on it? Looking forward to play SimSig on a touch screen.

Thank you!

It works on the Surface Pro 3:

However, there have been a couple of threads about using SimSig with touchscreens:

It seems that no-one's found touchscreens particularly useful when using SimSig.

As far as I'm aware, there's no good reason it shouldn't run, assuming it's an x86 rather than ARM chip and runs a fairly standard copy of windows.

I've been using a Linx 1010b since January, and have installed and played a few sims with it. Whilst on paged sims I can get away using the touch screen, for any sims where I have to scroll I willplug in my mouse.

Did you play with a mouse, or only touch screen?

I cheat a little I must be honest and use a mouse. I prefer a mouse but use the pen and touch screen for other things at times. Have never used touchscreen for SimSig if I am honest
