unity - Why does Unity3D crash in VirtualBox?


I'm running Unity3D in a virtual instance of Windows, using the Virtual Box software on Linux. I have guest additions installed with DirectX support. I've tried using Windows XP SP3 32-bit, and Windows 7 64bit. My host is Ubuntu 12.04 64bit.


I installed and registered Unity on both. It loads up fine, and then crashes my entire VirtualBox instance (equivalent of a computer shutting off with no warning).

Answer



According to the Unity forums, Unity will not work with Virtual Box.


It does however work with VMWare with the "Accelerate 3D graphics" option checked.
