I upgraded to Parallels 15, and am trying to run Overwatch in a Windows 10 VM. While some portions of the game run at a smooth (capped) 70fps, it will suddenly stall for seconds at a time, making it unplayable. Video: I'm running a 13" 2018 MacBook Pro with a Razer Core X and RX 590. (Running...

Hello, I am wondering about the configuration for the allocated graphics in the configure menus. I have an eGPU with an AMD Vega 64 (8GB Video Memory) currently working properly on the latest Beta of Catalina with my 2018 13-inch MacBook Pro 2.7Ghz i7. In the configuration menus, under the...

Hi there! I was wondering if the performance improvements for DirectX11 are already noticeable in the Catalina beta, if I wanted to try that? I assume these performance improvements are due to native Swizzling support in Metal 3.0?

Hi there! Whenever I want to play Black Desert Online in my Parallels virtual machine, it gives the message 'This app cannot run under a Virtual Machine'. I know that we are able to fix this ourselves by deleting the contents of 'SystemBiosVersion' entry in RegEdit (Windows), as the app seems...

Now that DX11 is implemented, I'm wondering how easy it would be to implement Vulkan support as well (for games like Doom 2016 etc.)? :D

Hi there! I've been seeing a bit of chatter about DX11/12 support in the feature requests section, and I was wondering how you plan to implement this? Do you have your own in house DX11/12 --> Metal translation or would you be using something like MoltenVK + DXVK? Any information is...

I recently downloaded Parallels 13 to play a game on Steam that only supports Windows. The game is Hakuoki Kyoto Winds and I was able to install it but when I click play... the game runs and a black screen pops up for a few seconds and closes and nothing happens. It's like the game crashed...

Hi to all, I am using my Macbook Pro 2017 for business purposes. But I am also a video game player, so I want to play games on my Macbook. It has Radeon Pro 560 GPU, 16 GB RAM and i7 processor.

I have a new 2018 15" MacBook Pro, parallels 14, windows 10 and installed The Witcher 3 game, tried to load the game but I only get a screen flicker and nothing loads, no errors. Every application and OS is up to date, I read some of the forums with similar issues and so far I have made sure...

I was wondering if parallels, running on a 13" 2017 MacBook Pro supports an eGPU such as the Razer Core X? Thanks

My MBP doesn't have a very large internal HDD, and Parallels (13.whatever-the-latest-version-is) and Windows 10 are eating up a fair chunk, so my intention is to buy an external drive and run it from that (if only I could afford an external SSD!). Is it possible to move the installation from the...

I use a Logitech Gaming mouse that allows the use of different profiles while using different applications on your Mac/PC. Currently, I have to go to the devices tab in Parallels and connect my mouse when I want to begin using the profiles I have set up on Windows. Then I have to disconnect the...

Hello, I am very happy with the paralells software, but I have one question. I so badly want to play Minecraft for Windows 10, on my Windows guest OS. I have tried other games with steam, and they work. And the regular JAVA version of Minecraft works fine, but the problem is when I try the...

Hi, I have some success running 3D Steam games in Parallels, and figured i'd try the latest Doom 2016 just released ... Anyone have luck running DOOM 2016 under parallels? Here's what I see: - Click Play in Steam under Library / DOOM - Little window pops up saying: "Performing first time setup...

Hello, I'm using the latest version of Parallels 9 with Windows 7 Ultimate installed (with all the latest updates) on the newest iMac 27". I bought the game Rayman Legends. It works and looks amazing, but I'm unable to autosave/resume my games. It's greyed out. I contacted Ubisoft, but they...

Having never played the original Half-Life, I'm curious if anybody's had luck running it on the latest Parallels build. I'll install Boot Camp (on my MacBook) if I have to, but would rather avoid it if possible. Anybody?
