Running wildstar in Virtual box

Post by Jurnon »

Hello,

As the topic says - have anyone tried and maybe succeeded in running Wildstar in Virtual Box (W7)?

I've installed WS on it, launcher shows up I push "Play" and nothing happens. Tried googling it from Wildstar side - there seems to be a similar error for quite a few people but no general fix exist (or I couldn't find it), because most of the fixes provided seem to be unique to that person... So I was wondering, maybe it has smth to do with Virtual Box?

Any input is appreciated,

Ty

Virtual machines are not good candidates to play games, mainly because the graphics card is virtualized. Your best bet is dual booting.
