Since AIM requires DirectX 10 it will not run in a VM... 😞

Is this still the case?  With AIM 2013 R2?  How about with "InfraWorks"?  We would like to run Windows 7 based VM's in a Hyper-V environment utilizing RemoteFX with an external GPU. Does AIM / InfraWorks support the vGPU environment to allow the hardware acceleration?

 

thanks!
