Vision on Parallels VM - OpenGL not supported error

[Joey M.]

Can Vision run on Parallels VM?

I keep getting OpenGL not supported error?

Tried with vision 2020 and 2021, also upgrade from Parallels 15 to 17.

 

I can run Vision on Mac side and control with Hog4PC on Parallel using Artnet.

Also, Vision works great on my bootcamp partition with Hog4PC.

 

Just no go with Vision on Parallels?

Note - VM Display adapter only allows me - Parallels Display Adapter (WDDM)

Thanks

Joey

I think this is more a question for Parallels, does it support OpenGL 4.1?
if not then there is no chance that Vision will run inside of it.

 

From our side we do not actively support running any Vectorworks (including Vision) software in any VM environment, except for testing and utility purposes, due to the performance impact VM's have.
