    Mouse Movement Limitation Bug in 3D-Games (Borderlands, Battlefield etc.)

    Hi everybody, I am struggling with a super annoying bug that makes parallels completely unusable for 3D games to me: In all 3D games I tested so far, mouse movement is limited to the sides, so that you can not turn around completely but are limited to a space of roughly 180° - so you can not...

    Allocated 12gb of ram but a game I'm trying to play says less than 1gb available

    I am having trouble playing a game in the virtual machine. The first time I ran parallels, I updated the Microsoft software to the latest release and downloaded steam. The program was laggy right from the start, every mouse movement was delayed on the parallels desktop. Once I had a game, I went...

    Hi, I recently got a new Macbook Pro (with the 8 core M1 Pro) and I am having a bit of an issue with a game that I'm trying to get working. The game in question is Risk of Rain 2, and it actually runs great, until I press the command key which causes the game to immediately crash. I've tried...

    Gaming: Can a Parallels 17 Windows 11 VM run the new game "Stray"?

    Title, basically. Stray just released and is available on Steam. If I buy it, will I be able to play it through my VM? Related: How can I figure out on my own whether a certain Windows Steam game is playable via Parallels? Thanks!

    Boot into Parallels for gamers

    So it can run DirectX, OpenGL and Vulkan natively without having to convert them to Metal, gamers would really appreciate this as the current gaming experience through parallels is laggy and the frame rate can rarely stay at 60fps even for Rocket League.

    Syberia: The World Before

    Did anyone managed to get Syberia to run on Parallels + W10? I get a blank window and Syberia just freezes.

    Limit GPU cores for better battery life

    Many games use as much graphics as possible without any regard to battery life, if I could disable half the GPU cores whilst on battery it would double the battery life.

    More than 2GB VRAM in standard version

    It even slows down Rocket League, 4K needs 8-10GB VRAM ideally.

    Split screen gaming with multiple controllers

    By directing multiple game controllers to different virtual machines displayed in a single UI window, would be great for (example) playing Rocket League with friends.

    Any ETA for DirectX 12?

    Can you give us an ETA for DirectX 12 by chance? The 32 Core GPU will arrive soon (and mine, too) and with DirectX 12 support, Parallels Desktop for M1 would get a huge boost - I guess ;-) Looking forward to play AAA titles like Cyberpunk or RDR2. Kind regards Mario
