Linea Posted August 2 Posted August 2 Banner display, window starts, window remains black. I'm sure it was never intended to be even remotely compatible, but if it's possible I'd like to get it running this way.

Just search '801' in AE. 801 Difficulty Varies: 801.0 Easy, ..., 801.2 Standard*, ..., 801.5 Moderate**, ..., 801.6 Hard***, ..., 801.7 Four Star****, ... 801.F Death.

WanderingAries Posted August 2 Posted August 2 Not sure what's being asked. I looked the term up and it has something to do with splitting GPU in VMs? 1 OG Server: Pinnacle <||> Current Primary Server: Torchbearer || Also found on the others if desired <||> Generally Inactive Installing CoX: Windows || MacOS || MacOS for M1 <||> Migrating Data from an Older Installation Clubs: Mid's Hero Designer || PC Builders || HC Wiki || Jerk Hackers Old Forums <||> Titan Network <||> Heroica!

Linea Posted August 2 Author Posted August 2 Yes, it's using what's called GPU Para-virtualization in Hyper-V VMs on Windows 11. This is NOT the same as GPU Pass-thru. My guess would be even the newest CoH client is no where near close to compatible. But it shouldn't hurt to ask.

WanderingAries Posted August 3 Posted August 3 My question would be then, if we're talking about doing this with a Win11 Host, then why bother with VM if it's natively compatible to the Host? 1 OG Server: Pinnacle <||> Current Primary Server: Torchbearer || Also found on the others if desired <||> Generally Inactive Installing CoX: Windows || MacOS || MacOS for M1 <||> Migrating Data from an Older Installation Clubs: Mid's Hero Designer || PC Builders || HC Wiki || Jerk Hackers Old Forums <||> Titan Network <||> Heroica!

Linea Posted August 5 Author Posted August 5 physical hardware access is problematic, and I'd rather not buy another machine when I have plenty of resources available virtually.

Captain Fabulous Posted August 5 Posted August 5 CoH uses OpenGL, and my understanding is that Hyper-V and OpenGL don't play nice together. 1

Tho I guess it could theoretically be possible to use it with an OpenGL to DirectX 9 wrapper, tho I can't imagine such a set up would run well.

Doesn't Hyper-V only emulate ye olde classic S3 Verge graphics? I know my old 90s game doesn't even play nice in it (last I remember trying). Now, If you've got a Win7 install and run the "XP Mode" emulator, then that might do something, but at that point just run Win7 (no, don't actually do that it's not secure online).

Hyper-V only supports OpenGL 1.1, and IIRC CoH uses 2.1. 13 hours ago, Krimson said: If I could figure such a thing out, I'd be willing to give it a try. Unfortunately I'm the wrong one to ask. I suspect you'd run into the same issue, not being able to find a wrapper that supports OpenGL 2.1. Maybe Mesa? 🤷♂️ Tho my understanding is Nvidia may at some point offer this support natively.
Tigerbay 8 Posted October 6 Posted October 6 can i run COH with a RTX 3080 graphics and a i5 9700k cpu 16g ram please
Marine X Posted October 6 Posted October 6 Sure, most computers can run it, you sound like you should be able to run it with the graphics set to Ultra, if you have lag or other issues just back the graphics down a bit. 1 " When it's too tough for everyone else, it's just right for me..."
