I have found that since upgrading Phoenix to 2.00n, Phoenix no longer works correctly under VMware Fusion. I also just upgraded to 2.5f beta, and still get the same problem. I'm wondering if anyone else is running Phoenix under Fusion and has found the same problem. I'm using VMWare Fusion 2.0 by the way.
The behavior I get now is that Phoenix starts up just fine, and the sceneries, menus and dialogs all operate fine. However the model is not rendered at all! So I'll see the scenery, and hear the model running, and if I move the controls the scenery will move as the model moves, but there is no model visible. Also when I bring up the Choose Model dialog box, the preview picture of the model is blank, but otherwise the dialog operates correctly.
This is on my 2.33 GHz MacBook Pro. Phoenix works great under Boot Camp, so it's not a big deal. And even when Phoenix was working under VMware I usually preferred to reboot to get better performance, but it was nice to have the option of doing a little simming without rebooting. |
