I have just noticed that virtualbox supports Direct3D since 2 Month.

Has anybody tried this with Rappelz yet?

Rappelz under VMWare is very slow and maybe this software works better :D

does gameguard kill virtualbox when rappelz is started at the host like it does with vmware?

When a VM client is running (xp client) and i start Rappelz on the host (vista x64) the running client is terminated with the error "VMX not working anymore" as soon as gameguard is loaded in the Host :(

hello,
i tried this before but didn't work smoothly by default in VB the 3D Support is enabled ,
i tried this on linux but the result was horrible , on PC Dual Core 2.6/2M Cash 4GB Rams,
the game start but the char barely move :D,
on windows it start on the char move but was delay duo lack off GFX rendering some times end with crash for VB,
also tried the VMWare i heared there is new feature on it allow you to set the default memory for display card to what ever you like based on Size of Rams ,
but ended with nothing , now trying to test the new feature on VMWare 7 testing and reporting after finish :)

hi guys,
i also tried using vm ware on my 64-bit xp and the client inside vm ware is 32-bit xp i'm using dual core procie with 2gb of ram and 9400gt nvidia graphic card. i tried to make the client run in lowest settings possible and it turns out to be good for a while. It follows and buff me in my grindding spot and turns out to be ok. but after using it for a couple of minutes the rappelz running inside vm ware freezes and crashed. i'll try using 2- 64bit or 2 32-bit on my system. wish me luck ^^
