Yeah, the deeper problem you're running into there is that Adobe requires DirectX 12, and today we only support DirectX 11.  There's no easy fix for that, but it's certainly something we're working towards.  Assuming we could do something about the memory value, I suspect that wouldn't actually help without also supporting the higher DirectX version.

You can check in your vmware.log to see which host graphics card we started on.  But the memory limitations here are a function of our virtual graphics hardware, and not anything to do with the host graphics card.

There's no way at the moment to increase the Dedicated Display Memory to 1.5 GB for any host/guest configuration, because unfortunately the way that we are doing the graphics virtualization makes that proposition more complicated than it sounds.

That said, we're aware of these issues, and we're certainly open to anything we can do on our end to make Adobe software work better in a VM.  So our development team will do our best to find a solution here.
