Windows 8 Desktop issues

cocos2d-x C++
#1

Hi all!

Just tried running cocos2d-2.0-x-2.0.2 samples on Windows 8 Desktop evaluation for developers:
http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/evalcenter/jj554510.aspx
inside Oracle VM VirtualBox.

After starting any .exe file it just quits without any error.

The same examples run fine on Windows 7.

Any ideas?

This was related to “Enable 3D Acceleration” not checked in Settings/Display.

HelloCpp works fine, but some tests in TestCpp not.

It would be nice to display some message box saying “OpenGL x.xx required. Please do this and that” instead of strange application behavior.
