- Main article: Windows NT 6.x emulators
- For page for Mac OS X PPC era, see MacOS emulators.
Recommended to use this virtualization pack, which includes the latest 3D acceleration-supported versions of VMware and VirtualBox for Windows XP guest, along with scripts for LaunchBox integration, wrappers, various patches and other convenient tools.
Guidelines
[edit | edit source]- It's recommended to use IBM-PC compatible/standard PC/ACPI PC emulators for MS-DOS, Windows 3.x or Windows 9x operating systems (Glide, DirectX 3 to 7 or DirectDraw), see Windows 9X Compatibility List for that. This list focuses on 2K NT-based Windows operating systems such as Windows XP and Windows Vista (DirectX 8.1 to 10.1). Only guest operating systems that can be emulated or virtualized are included, covering everything would result in an endless list, please do not bloat the table with modern operating systems or GOG version of the games.
- Please refer to the 'hypervisor issues' section for guidance on addressing known persistent, unresolved, specific issues in hypervisor software (e.g., VirtualBox, VMware).
- Add the virtualization software version in the relevant Virtual GPU Adapter column with {{Green}}, {{Yellow}} or {{Red}} templates if you test the game. Remember; Parallels 17 and VirtualBox 6.0.24 are the most recent versions that provide 3D acceleration for legacy 2K Windows operating systems running within a virtual machine, see Windows NT 5.x emulators#Hypervisors section for detailed information about this.
- Refer to the pcgamingwiki's #API sections on each dedicated game page for what API's used for the correct Video API and Sound APIs information before adding them to this table.
- Use the Notes column for:
- Mentioning the usage of Wrappers for compatibility reasons (e.g., VMware issues: 15.5.7 has "problem A" but WineD3D 1.1.14 fixes it)
- Mentioning the differences due to different version of virtualization software (e.g., VirtualBox issues: use 6.0.24 version of VirtualBox for perfect experience, 5.2.44 or older have problem A and problem B)
- Timing, protection mechanisms against VMs, or other issues with the software.
- The NoCD/NoDVD situation.
- Using revived private servers and other tricks.

Windows XP SP3 | VMware issues: Use NoCD 1.1 (Deviance) executable if you encounter white screen issue during 3D rendering scenes. Some models exhibit rare texture corruption or flickering. 2D elements on loading screens may draw incorrectly. Career championship races load slowly or may hang indefinitely. If the game hangs: Terminate the game executable via Task Manager.

See here and Virtual GPU Adapter Compatibility List. This is unrelated to FPS drops or overall system performance. After testing timing hooks and Wine registry tweaks, switching from Mesa to the AMDGPU-PRO driver significantly resolves the problem. See here. With WineD3D 4.12.1, this problem has disappeared, the guest clock is always synced.

| FIFA World Cup 2006 | Direct3D 8 | 6.0.24 | 15.5.7 | 10.0.3 | Windows XP SP3 | I installed the DirectX package that came with the disc. VirtualBox issues: Use 6.0.24 version of VirtualBox for perfect visual experience, no need for any wrapper. If you are using version 5.2.44 of VirtualBox or older, during launch, a prompt may appear stating that; '2006 FIFA World Cup requires hardware graphics acceleration.' WineD3D version 1.7.5.2 resolves this, but in-game graphics could broken. Version 1.1.14 fixes all of the issues.[4] VMware issues: Some UI elements in the menu causing slowdowns, in-game graphics are broken. WineD3D version 1.1.14 almost fixes all of slowdowns caused by UI elements, and fixes all graphics problems. qemu-3dfx: KJ Liew's WineD3D 2.0.5's both ddraw and d3d8 used. | |||

There are no major in-game graphical issues, performance is better compared to VMware. Using WineD3D 1.7.44 doesn't fix color artifact issue, decreases performance. VMware issues: Ensure you press the "Esc" key twice when in the intro video section before the game menu appears, as it may experience video decoding issues. In-game real-time rendering cinematic sections run smoothly but may have minor graphical glitches. While there are no major in-game graphical issues, performance is mediocre. | |||

To prevent this, use a NoDVD patch or update to patch 1.7.5.7. Set reduce_mouselag=0 in game.cfg to avoid severe stuttering. Enable mouse integration or use USB passthrough in VirtualBox to resolve virtual pointer tracking issues. Minor graphical problems, such as terrain rendering incorrectly beneath water surfaces, may occur due to z-buffer precision limitations in emulated 3D acceleration qemu-3dfx issues: It has the same minor terrain problem, regardless of the graphical options used. Tested with KJ Liew's WineD3D versions 2.0.5, 6.0.4 and 7.0.2. WineD3D has no fix for this problem at this time. | ||

This can be easily fixed by decreasing the "Special Effects" setting in the graphics options. Using WineD3D version 1.7.46 resolves the flickering but introduces minor new visual glitches and significantly reduces performance. Otherwise, the game is playable. VMware issues: The game crashes immediately on launch. Neither WineD3D nor Patch 2.4 combined with a NoCD executable resolves this issue.

In particular, the inner wheel arch (fender liner) is rendered incorrectly; instead of being shaded, it appears as a bright white area. Using WineD3D is not recommended, killing the performance completely. VMware issues: Performance is mediocre but acceptable. The only graphical issue is constant flickering of the map (UI element). Using WineD3D 1.3.10 resolves this flickering, but introduces a new issue where ground textures become corrupted. | ||

| The Sims 2 | Direct3D 9.0c | 6.0.24 | 15.5.7 | 10.0.3 | Windows XP | Game has software renderer support. qemu-3dfx: Tested with KJ Liew's WineD3D 8.0.2, 7.0.2 and 6.0.4. VirtualBox issues: Game immediately crashes upon launch; unable to test it further. VMware issues: Game launches successfully without requiring any special configurations or workaround. Performance is mediocre but surprisingly, increasing the graphics options, particularly Shadows, seemed to marginally improve performance (not sure). Reflections, especially mirror reflections, appear to be broken or rendered incorrectly; should be turned off in the graphics/performance options to avoid visual glitches. | |||
