Huh?! A little over one hundred MB of VRAM limit? I have eight thousand MB of VRAM!! 8GB of VRAM in my hardware, and I can't even assign one or two of those GB to my guest VM? That's if the guest's limit even needs to rely on the host's VRAM hardware. Problem 2: That article explicitly says it doesn't support assigning more than 128MB. Problem 1: I don't have that drop down menu available in that location for any of my VMs. It also says I should be able to set it by editing the. This article says I should be able to set custom video memory size through the GUI, with a "Shared Graphics Memory" drop down menu option in the Display settings for a VM. No way that I can find to increase the Graphics RAM of any VMWare guest beyond 128MB.

Multiple VMs, both Mac and windows guest OS's.
Reviving an old thread, I know, but something that appears to be still an issue. I would like to know if this is under their radar - or is it just me who is too demanding? Should I use another product in VMWare's lineup? It's 2017 already, and VMWare got a very fresh version of their product - which does not even address that issue. Maybe I whine too much, before even becoming a customer, but I am hesitant to invest on a product (and all the time to set up multiple VM's) when I see this VRAM issue going back many years in forums, even in here. Some limitations there, such as no bridged network, but I can live with that.

Since pricing & licensing with Fusion 10 is very competitive, I might probably go with it for Windows/Linux VM'sįor MacOS VM's I found that even using Parallels Desktop Lite (which is free on the Mac App Store for Linux/macOS VM's) results in a better experience (256MB VRAM incl.). macOS VM's work better under Parallels, just by getting 256MB VRAM (how hard can it be?) Plex streaming) it's not completely out of date this graphics chip is even used for H264 hardware accelerated encoding by some applications even today (e.g. Fusion advertised supporting Metal 2 on the Mac (maybe not applicable here though?) the graphics chip supports Metal 2, Apple still supports it.
MAC OS X VMWARE ON AMD WINDOWS 10 HOST SOFTWARE
the graphics chip is not directly used, it's all software emulated supposedly (?) The integrated graphics chip is old, I know, but: I have a Mac Mini 2012 i7 quad, 16GB RAM, Intel Graphics HD4000 1.5GB VRAM - if that should matter. Is there some hack? Why isn't this officially supported?ĭoes anyone actually use VMWare Fusion 10 for macOS guest OS? is there a way to run more smoothly macOS guest OS on macOS host OS? Is there a way to change Graphics Memory on this to 256MB at least?
why have a checkbox on 3d acceleration when it does not work on macOS guest OS - just disable it!) This is a product that came out a month ago. What makes this worse, is that I found people asking about this since years ago, but not finding an actual solution ever. What made it more disappointing is that the main competitor, Parallels, allows e.g 256MB of VRAM on macOS guest OS, which makes it run so much more smoothly. To be clear, I'm not talking about 3D acceleration (like the Maps.app that does not work) - this is understandable. All my queries lead to posts over years ago and techniques like editing settings svga.vramSize etc.

I spent a lot of time looking on how to change this to no avail. Just try Google Maps, on Chrome or Safari - unbearable. With VMWare Tools installed of course, I could only get it up to 128MB of graphics memory (VRAM) which is obviously not enough. what? How can they possibly advertise and ship this? This is laggy as hell.
The guest OS is macOS High Sierra.Īnd then, sadly, I was like.
MAC OS X VMWARE ON AMD WINDOWS 10 HOST TRIAL
I was really into moving my VM's to Fusion 10, it sounded very promising and fairly priced and so I started my 30-day trial on the standard version (not Pro)įrankly, some Windows VM's I checked were performing very good.īut, I also need macOS VM's to test some software on, and so I set up a Sierra (10.12.6) VM.
