Hi all, for added security, i like to play my games inside virtual machines. I used to do with with Vmware, but for some reason my whole PC started freezing when using it. I figuered its some drive incompality or something so i switched to Virtualbox and everything works way better in all aspects exept one. Unity games wont play. Well they launch but then im met with a black screen and just stays theres. I have guest addition and have 10gb vram assigner along with 16gb ram. Any other idea on what to try?

A quick search on the web would have told you that you need to ensure that 3D and 2D acceleration are enabled on VirtualBox, and that transparency effects are not disabled.
Assuming that your "I have guest addition" imply that you installed its video drivers, it should be enough for games to works. This unless you use a forks of VirtualBox, some of them being known to be mess when in come to the graphic part.

Sorry i forgot to mention, 2D and 3D is enabled. I also have transparency enabled. I did spend some time googling. Nothing seems to work.

Imjust using the standard virtualbox from the devs website. No fork
