Hi
i've installed anyrail on a virtual machine, Windows 7 oracle virtual box
I can do everything in anyrail except show 3D then I get this error
"No Suitable hardware found.
Failed to create D3D11 device (HRESULT 887a0004)"

is there a solution for this issue

regards
Frank

You need DirectX11 for the 3D View. As I understand, Virtual box only supports DirectX 8 and 9 if at all.

I don't think it will ever be possible as the VM would need direct access to the GPU, which is a no go I think.

It is not likely virtualbox itself that causes this problem. The following setup works (with an Nvidia 1080 at least, running a W10 guest):

VirtualBox 6.1.26_ubuntu + Guest Additions CD (very important, otherwise you won't have suitable drivers)

256Mb video ram

Vboxsvga

3d accelleration *dis*abled! (Yes this may sound counterintuitive)

Not sure if this would work for W7 but might be worth a try.
