and it's just a driver for their own virtual graphics adapter. You'd think it wouldn't be too hard to port across, all four being products of VMware.

If you're willing to pay for them they may work for you (there are trial versions available to download and install for free). Note that VMware's paid products ( VMware Fusion for Mac, VMware Workstation for Linux and VMware Workstation for Windows) all have 3D capabilities at DirectX 10 and OpenGL 3.3 feature levels. e.g.: there is a software rendering OpenG元2 driver for Blender on their FTP site which allows Blender for Windows to actually work inside a Windows guest, but frame rates when animating Poses are in the 0.5-2.0 fps region. You always have the option to install software rendering OpenGL drivers but they wouldn't be usable for anything beyond the most basic requirements.

That said it only had OpenGL 2.0 support around 2009 and has been quietly upgrading to OpenGL 2.1 in the meantime. If a DirectX 12 driver is installed, supported apps will run with hardware acceleration for better performance.

A number of new Vulkan extensions supported by Intel ANV and Radeon RADV like KHRshaderclock, KHRshaderfloatcontrols, SPIR-V 1.4 support, Vulkan Memory Model, shadersubgroupballot / shader. Various other non-core OpenGL extensions added to various drivers. Despite many requests for improved OpenGL capability in the VBox user forums I've seen no mention of the VBox developers working on OpenGL 3 or better support. This compatibility pack allows more of your favorite OpenCL and OpenGL apps to run on a Windows 10 PC that doesn't have OpenCL and OpenGL hardware drivers installed by default. For Linux openGL I would recommend AMD because the open source MESA drivers now perform well and also are better integrated with the Linux ecosystem. OpenGL 4.6 support for Intel i965/Iris drivers now that SPIR-V support is in place. The OpenGL drivers in the VirtualBox Guest Additions are limited to OpenGL 2.1.
