I carried out the instructions Linus provided in his latest YouTube video. The virtual machine started and the game was installed properly. In Device Manager, three display drivers are listed, including my graphics card, and everything appears normal. However, launching a practice game in League of Legends results in a system error stating "A Critical error has occurred and the process must be terminated." I updated DirectX, removed League of Legends, and reinstalled it, but the issue persists. I also have a 35MB memory dump from the error, which doesn’t seem to help clarify the problem. Any additional advice would be appreciated.
Check the title for any issues. It looks like a potential glitch.
I attempted GTA V, Far Cry: New Dawn, Rise of Tomb Raider. All just halt and won’t launch. Only a faint hint from Tomb Raider: no graphics card detected. Would you like to proceed? Clicking OK opens the game menu, where you can choose a pass-through GPU. There seems to be a missing step in setting the video card as standard, and the games don’t recognize it.
I managed to finish several games at the end. But it's unpredictable and inconsistent. I was able to play Far Cry 4 on one machine and Shadow of the Tomb Raider on another, all at the same time. Using a single GTX 1060 with 6GB RAM. One VM had Tomb Raider controlled by a friend online, while I watched on another laptop playing Far Cry 4. Everything was set to high settings and 1650x something, and it surprisingly worked! Now I'm interested in trying a good shooter on four VMs with a GTX 1080 Ti.
I resolved an issue in GTAV where the game appeared at fullscreen 3840 x 2160 but didn’t load properly. Sound played normally, yet the visuals froze. The default setting caused Parsec to fail at handling that resolution, leading to the freezing. You can exit the frozen session by pressing Alt + Tab to switch apps or Win + D to go to desktop. I fixed it by using Alt + Enter to change from fullscreen to windowed mode. Parsec’s official support suggests Win + D might help in certain cases, but Alt + Enter also works. Once I accessed the game’s interface, I adjusted the resolution to 1920x1080, which matched my display.
