this Tutorial on how to Play CA on a Virtual Machine
Mac Version idk if it works on Widows, but if it dose let me know!
well seeing that you have a Mac OS X and have VMware Fusion and Combat arms installed in it
but this error message keeps popping up:"sorry, this application cannot run under a virtual machine"
well here is how you can fix that
ok first things first
PLEASE Double check what your doing
lets start!
CLOSE YOUR Virtual Machine! if you had it open
look for your Virtual Machine
should be located in your Documents>Virtual Machine>(Name of your VM).vmwarevm
now once your at your "NameOfVM.vmwarevm" you will need to view the files in it
right click>Show Package Contents
good job, now look for a file "NameOfVM.vmx" it should be like 3kbs and always ending with ".vmx"
right click>Open With>TextEdit
a window will pop-up showing lots of information ending with "TRUE", "FALSE", Numbers, and some other stuff
Example:
.encoding = "UTF-8"
config.version = "8"
virtualHW.version = "9"
scsi0.present = "TRUE"
scsi0.virtualDev = "lsisas1068"
memsize = "3000"
mem.hotadd = "TRUE"
GO TO THE BOTTOM OF THAT PAGE
and (don't copy the "----------ADDTHIS----------")
v-----------ADDTHIS----------v
svga.vramSize = 268435456
monitor_control.restrict_backdoor = "true"
isolation.tools.getPtrLocation.disable = "true"
isolation.tools.setPtrLocation.disable = "true"
isolation.tools.setVersion.disable = "true"
isolation.tools.getVersion.disable = "true"
monitor_control.disable_directexec = "true"
^----------ADDTHIS----------^
Now Save it! Close it! and Start your VM
if your paranoid like me, i would create and Original VM.vmx (place it somewhere else)
and save your EditedNew VM.vmx into the file
NOW you SHOULD be able to Play Combat Arms
if NOT follow the Steps Below
first things first
you should be on your VM trying to play CA but your still getting the error message
"sorry, this application cannot run under a virtual machine"
close that
now Click the Start Button (Windows button) and in the Search Bar Look-up "RegEdit"
open "RegEdit"
you will see a window with folders, now follow this:
"HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE/SYSTEM/CurrentControlSet/Control/Class/{4D36E968-E325-11CE-BFC1-08002BE10318}/0000"
Once your in the folder "0000", locate and right click "DriverDesc" and click Modify
a small window will pop-up, you will also see "VMWare SVGA II" or "VMWare SVGA 3D" or something along those lines
now Delete it, then hit OK
close "RegEdit"
and start Combat Arms!
if you did this Right, you should be able to play CA and own noobs again
HAVE FUN!
if you did this Wrong, Check all the Step and Redo them
but if you cant find what you did Wrong, your probably better off just Deleting the VM and start a new VM and Follow the steps again
and if nothing else works, sorry in advance
your better off with a Windows
