Add the following to the configuration (.vmx) file for the virtual machine:
mks.enable3d = "TRUE"
This line enables accelerated 3‐D on the host. It is required to support accelerated
3‐D in the guest and also enables the host to accelerate 2‐D portions of the guest
display.
4 Also add one or both of the following optional lines:
svga.vramSize = "67108864"
This line increases the amount of VRAM on the virtual display card to 64MB.
Adding more VRAM helps to reduce thrashing in the guest. The maximum value
is 128MB.
vmmouse.present = "FALSE"
This line disables the absolute pointing device in the guest. Applications that
require DirectInput relative mode require that you turn off the absolute pointing
device in the guest. In practice, this is only required for a certain class of full screen
3‐D applications (for example, real‐time games like first‐person shooters).
5 If you set the vmmouse.present option, also turn off the preference for motion
ungrabbing in the Workstation preferences, as follows:
a From the Workstation menu bar, choose Edit>Preferences.
b Click the Input tab.
c Deselect Ungrab when cursor leaves window.
To enable the guest operating system for accelerated 3-D
