Description

NoSuitableGraphicsDeviceException on Virtual Machine

Steps to Reproduce

Game1.cs

using System.Collections;
using Microsoft.Xna.Framework;
using Microsoft.Xna.Framework.Graphics;
using Microsoft.Xna.Framework.Input;

namespace KNT;

public class Game1 : Game
{
     Texture2D ballTexture;
    
     GraphicsDeviceManager _graphics;
     SpriteBatch _spriteBatch;
  
ArrayList ALEnemies;

    public Game1()
    {
            _graphics = new GraphicsDeviceManager(this);
    _graphics.GraphicsProfile = GraphicsProfile.HiDef;
    Content.RootDirectory = "Content";
    IsMouseVisible = true;

    }

    protected override void Initialize()
    {
        // TODO: Add your initialization logic here
        ALEnemies = new ArrayList();

        _graphics.PreferredBackBufferHeight = 768;
_graphics.PreferredBackBufferWidth = 1024;
_graphics.ApplyChanges();

        base.Initialize();
    }

    protected override void LoadContent()
    {
   // Create a new SpriteBatch, which can be used to draw textures.
    _spriteBatch = new SpriteBatch(GraphicsDevice);

    // TODO: use this.Content to load your game content here

    ballTexture  = Content.Load<Texture2D>("ball");

    }

    protected override void Update(GameTime gameTime)
    {
        if (GamePad.GetState(PlayerIndex.One).Buttons.Back == ButtonState.Pressed || Keyboard.GetState().IsKeyDown(Keys.Escape))
            Exit();

        // TODO: Add your update logic here

        base.Update(gameTime);
    }

    protected override void Draw(GameTime gameTime)
    {
    _graphics.GraphicsDevice.Clear(Color.CornflowerBlue);

    // TODO: Add your drawing code here
    _spriteBatch.Begin();
    _spriteBatch.Draw(ballTexture, new Vector2(0, 0), Color.White);
    _spriteBatch.End();

    base.Draw(gameTime);
    }
}

Program.cs

using var game = new KNT.Game1();
game.Run();`

Expected Behavior

Program working when launched like inhttps://monogame.net/articles/getting_started/4_adding_content.html

Resulting Behavior

Run the program from VS Studio ang get Exception has occurred: CLR/Microsoft.Xna.Framework.Graphics.NoSuitableGraphicsDeviceException

How so? Other programs work

This is not a MonoGame issue. When running 3D graphics from a virtual machine, the machine needs additional drivers and software in order to support 3D rendering.

You might want to look into how to enable OpenGL rendering in VirtualBox. Bear in mind that depending on your host machine and system, it might not be possible, some combinations just don't work.

I understand. Thanks for answer.
Temporary solution: put Mesa3D OpenGL DLL along with .exe of project
