    Any updates on Parallels and DirectX 12 yet???

    I know this has been asked many, many times (including by myself) but was curious if anyone from Parallels (or someone with actual knowledge) can comment on if Parallels will ever be able to set up its graphics instructions to emulate (or whatever it is called) DirectX 12 instructions? Seems...

    Do I have the right tools for dx12?

    I'm trying to play a game on the epic games launcher through Parallels Desktop 18 for Mac (standard edition) on a M2 Pro (macOS 15.2) but I'm getting the error "dx12 is not supported on your system. Try running without -dx12 or -d2d12 command line argument." In my googling, I found a thread...

    Anyone try a DirectX 12 game yet?

    Have they finally added DirectX 12 support yet? I downloaded and upgraded my Parallels to 20. Went in to Windows 11 - did they updates and then tested the two installed programs that I need (Links 2003 for play and Lotus Approach for society work) and they are both fine. Have not tried...

    Parallels Gaming

    I feel duped. At the least, misled. Parallels advertises that you can use their VM software to do Windows gaming on a Mac. I'm an avid PC gamer and I work in IT, so I know how VMs work. But they didn't even write in DirectX 12 support? I have a M1 Macbook with 64GB RAM. Here's my experience so...

    Still no news on Direct X 12 Support???

    I am running latest version of Parallels Pro with Windows 11 Pro. Windows says it is running Direct X 12 but when I tried installing Diablo IV it says that my graphic chip isn't supported (Apple Silicon M3 chip). Any news when Parallels plans to correct this - if it is actually possible? Thanks.

    Why can I install some x64 games but not others from the Microsoft Store?

    Easy to replicate, check for game Solasta, it says not compatible because the CPU, then check for Gears of War 4, it says compatible, they both are the same only available for x64 CPU architecture, and in the case of Solasta it only checks the CPU architecture as incompatibility reason. Another...

    DirectX 12 - any update on when Parallels will support it?

    Like the title says, any update on when (or if) Parallels will have support for Direct X 12? I am running Parallels 18.1.1 and Windows 11 PRO with the newest updates and it still appears that games that require Direct X 12 still won't work with an error message about the display. Thanks.

    AVX/AVX2 instructions + DirectX 12

    I contacted Apple to ask them more info about Apple Silicon family capabilities and they replied to me with this statement: They also added: So, dear Parallels, you have no excuses now to bring both AVX/AVX2 and DirectX12 to Parallels for ARM architecture.

    What are the capabilities of the Apple Silicon Windows 11 ARM graphics card?

    I know there is probably a lot that will not be supported, but I thought I would ask anyway. DXDiag shows that Windows 11 ARM64 in Parallels is DirectX 12. There are still many games that don't work. I also can't really see a "driver" other than sometihng pretty generic. My question is whether...
