vmware and 3d

[thsoldier]

i just bought a macbook and i installed vmware fusion 1.0, later i found out that it cant run programs/games like maplestory because it doesnt support 3d, but from what i heard later versions of vmware do support 3d, only i cant find a free 30 days trial for newer versions, does anybody know a answer for my problem?

vmware version that does have 3d and wich i can try for free? link plx?
tryout version of parallels? link plz?
any 3d for my version of vmware?
other solution?

and does anybody know how to undo partitions i made on the hd?

You have the latest Fusion...Parallels is here

Try and see if it works with Crossover...

You will have better luck running 3D programs in full screen mode. See here.

ty very much, hey but how do i delete the partitions i made before? i made a partition with boothcamp and with fusion before, both i want to delete, the one is empty, the other has win2000 on it

You can delete your BootCamp partition with the BootCamp assistant you installed it with

BTW what hardware are you using? And hope that 3D support in VMWare will improve enough to satisfy your needs sooner rather than later...

OK, as with all Macbooks (and Minis for that matter) the graphics are ****** integrated GMA950 unfortunately, so don't expect too much from gaming.

the only game i play, is maplestory, wich is a 2d side scrolled mmorpg, with some flashy 2d skill images, it used a 3d driver but its just 2d, i dont need a good graphic card
