It's a neat concept... but you need to remember... it doesn't have a lot to work with.. and the 3d stuff...
maybe there is a newer software with full support of many things to make it work?
I refer old topic ,when I wondered if it was possible to find a solution for the 3D stereoscopic.
Geran initially just wanted to find a solution
for the problem of the full screen on computers with Windows 8.
in a couple of hours Enlarged to Geran was running on my laptop with Windows 8 a simple wmplayer pre installed with Windows XP and AVP2
compressed in 1.33gb.
I have a copy of bakup if so needed.
anyway geran say:
hi lucifer
here's the vm
to start it, open the vm ware player and start the vm
to switch between your pc and the vm, press <ctrl><alt>
to go fullscreen, press <CTRL><ALT><ENTER>
if you go fullscreen, press the pin on the upper menu so you can play
^ the vm has the "vm ware tools" installed so the handling will be easier
all stuff i installed/copied is in the upper right corner
i made a backup of the vm - if you did something wrong, just copy the files over
i dont think the vm is working 100% at the moment so wait until i fixed the
flickering problem - or you found something
the flickering occurs only if you play avp2 in fullscreen - if you add
+windowed 1
to the avpcmd, it will work
right now, windows needs 80 MB RAM and AvP2 needs around 128Mb RAM
so the minimal settings are 256Mb free RAM st start the VM - i doubled it to test some stuff
with the virtaulization thing, wait a bit until i have everything ready
if this all is done and tested, i'll give it free to launch for everyone with instructions
~have fun
perhaps Geran had not found a solution to remedy the problems full screen & stereoscopic d3.
but It has shown that it is possible to run AVP2 in VMware-player-7.1.0.
what does the garry's mod cinema modof garry's in all this?
the concept of virtual place cinema mod its only a exemple,
Imagine a server garry's mod with a modified version of cinema mod ,where you can use wmplayer.
a virtual place to meet and chat, or a virtual place to get together to play a very old retro game .
