    How to fix black screen when starting a game VMware?


    Sorry if i am posting it in the wrong place. Machine and host both are windows 10 pro 21H1.

    I am trying to run game Broken Ranks on VMware workstation player 16, but it's just showing me black screen (music works). I have guest tools up to date, i installed some drivers. I have checked all options:

    virtualize intel VT-x/EPT or AMD-v/RVI

    virtualize CPU performance counters

    virtualize IOMMU (IO memory management unit)

    accelerated 3D graphics

    i assigned 8 GB graphics ram, 4 processors (the max i have), 8 GB graphics memory.

    READ THIS: I remember that it worked before, but i don't know what did i do to get it work... I just messed so much in machine and it just magically started working. So don't say that it isn't possible... When im disabling accelerate 3D graphics game works but then it's just 2-10fps ingame...

    Broken Ranks works with 64 bit, directX 11, in technology ADOBE AIR, on engine Away3d + Starling + Feathers. The game is 3D. Game is very lightweight.

    Hi and welcome to Windows Ten Forums!

    Question for you.

    Why would you VM Windows 10 if you already have Windows 10 for just a game?
    Does the game work under Windows 10 without the VM?

    Thanks.
