3D acceleration for OS X El Capitan/Sierra

[Anony23]

I installed Sierra on Vmware (with some tweaks) but it does not support 3D acceleration.

Is there anything i can do to improve the performance of Sierra on Vmware? Would downgrading to El Capitan yield better peroformance? Is 3D acceleration supported on El Capitan?

Hello,

Unfortunately Apple does not allow you to run a virtual macOS or OS X on non-Apple branded hardware.

Since this violates Apple's EULA (and as such the VMware Community Terms of Use), any issues you have with trying to run macOS or OS X using VMware Workstation or VMware Workstation Player cannot be discussed at this forum.

You'll need to have apple hardware and use a product like VMware Fusion or VMware ESXi in order to legally run a virtual copy of macOS / OS X.

Hope you understand,
