Running OpenGL Apps on Android x86 4.4 R1 in virtual machine

Question

I want to use Android x86 on a virtual machine on Windows 8.1 Pro, but I have Problems with OpenGl. I use the news Android Version (x86 4.4-r1) but I had also tried RC2. Android x86 is always running. I can use the play store and surf in the internet, but when I use Apps which need OpenGL, it doesn’t work. I see in the log file: unimplemented OpenGL ES API. I used Virtual Box, VM Workstation and Hyper V but I always have the same problem. (In Virtual Box and VM Workstation I activated the 3D graphic options.)

I thought Android x86 now supports OpenGL with Intel graphic devices or do I have to change some options?

Host system: Mainboard Asus H87m-Pro; Intel i7-4790 (with GPU Intel HD 4600); No other GPU installed; 16 GB Ram; Windows 8.1 Pro; Every Windows Update and latest driver installed.

Guest system Android x86; RAM 4, 1 GB; HDD 12 GB;

Answer 1

As far as I know, Android x86 doesn't have any OpenGL emulation. (Related:Running OpenGL App on Android x86 and VirtualBox?)

The possible alternatives are:

• Genymotion
• The default Android emulator bundled with SDK
