That being said, if the Genshin Impact developers think of us Parallels gamers as evildoers, they might escalate their VM detection and then eventually it won't work anymore in Parallels. I did not find that it was necessary to do any XML thing. Thanks for your link on 'XML template', I also found similar things, but those people are either playing in Linux, or in Windows, and I think they are not using Parallels. Could it be that we're on different versions of Parallels?ĭid you go full-screen, low resolution? For good measure, did you reboot your Windows image completely? (I don't think you can change those options if you don't reboot the image completely, so I'm sure you did, but just in case.)

If you're a Linux gamer who accidentally wandered into this subreddit, first of all, God bless. Now, go to ||->Control Center, click on the gear icon, Hardware, Cpu & Memory, and Enable nested virtualization. Fortunately for us all, I was able to figure out something.Īs of this writing, you can get around this GI discrimination against us as follows. I vaguely thought of asking for help in r/Genshin_Impact, but then the entire population of Reddit asked condescendingly why I was trying to game on a Mac. As you are probably aware, the game Genshin Impact has some sort of protection that prevents us honest Mac gamers from playing the game in Parallels.
