Ultrawide LG Screen and Unity

VMWare Fusion 7 Pro, running with OS X 1010, trying to run as Unity on an LG 34UC97 causes VMWare to silently close, and any attempt to open a Control Panel for example attempts to open a desktop window, and load the Unity Control panel separately, before closing the app without error.

Upped video memory to 2048, and turned off the option for max resolution with Retina, but no dice.

Originally installed, and then reinstalled VMWare tool, but noticed this in the logs;

2015-06-02T19:43:27.342Z| VMware Fusion| I120: OnGuestCanRunUnityChanged: Tools status is not INSTALLED

Anyone else having this issue?

Any ideas of solution?

Hi Martin,

Welcome to VMware Fusion Community!

So this is LG 34UC97 specific issue or it also can be reproducible with other screen?  Can it be reproducible with other screen?

I am not sure if it is related with screen, but it seems that your VMware Tools is not correctly installed.

Would you mind uninstalling VMware Tools first, then re-install VMware Tools, then restart the vm to see if that helps?

Thanks,
