    It looks like Parallels supports up to OpenGL 4.1 (https://kb.parallels.com/115487) and I was wondering if support for OpenGL 4.3 would be implemented?
    I don't like to compare this to VMware Fusion but it appears to have support already so I'm hoping this will be added in the near future to Parallels. (unfortunately OpenGL 4.3 is required for my purpose which is why I'm asking)

    Hello,
    Could you provide us with more detail for your use case for OpenGL4.3.
    Thank you.

    I'm specifically hoping to run the Ironwail Quake source port (https://github.com/andrei-drexler/ironwail) which requires it.
    However, I also see others requesting this feature for Blender (3D modeling) and other applications I believe.

    Just adding in here - blender changed its minimum requirements from to 4.3 in the latest version - would be good if it can be supported in the next release cycle

    I also need the OpenGL 4.3 to run the some functionalities of ATAS Trading Platform (https://atas.net/). Please update Parallels to support it!!!
