Applications/games not working in Windows on Arm

I keep reading that GTA 5 works, but I'm having no luck running it. I'm using the Steam version with Rockstar Launcher. Game starts and you see the lights and sirens intro and then it crashes after about 5 seconds consistently. I've tried everything that Google has suggested with no luck.
Running 2020 MacBook Air with M1 chip.
Parallels Pro Edition Version 17.1.4 with Windows 11 ARM.
Crash Log: [crashdetection] Exit code 0xc0000005 indicates a fatal game exit (reason: STATUS_ACCESS_VIOLATION)
I feel it's a graphics setting, but I see very little you can adjust on these M1 machines.
Also, currently running everything with Admin privileges.
Thanks for any help you can offer.
 
I am contemplating a new Mac to replace my 2012 MacBook Pro. There is a crucial software - Turbotax standard (Canada) version that is available in Windows only. Have someone by chance try this software and can provide feedback? I don't want to get a second windows laptop just to run this. Thanks.

I have seen a previous post that someone was able to run TurboTax. Tryin searching the feeds.

While installing SQL 2022 preview > Choose Basic installation option, it will fail to install SQL 2022. =(
Does anyone successfully install SQL 2022 + Visual Studio 2022 with PD 18 on Apple Silicon machines? Thanks.
 
I attempted to install F1 Manager 2022 via stream on parallels 18 today on my M1 Max Macbook Pro. It installed fine, but there was an unreal engine crash before the game even finished loading.
 
PowerWash Simulator was working fine under Parallels 17.x, but upgrading to 18 seems to have broken the game's ability to register progress. I touch any surface with the water and the entire surface loses its dirt texture, but none of the progress bars register any cleaning progress. Steam says all the game's files' integrity are fine, but the game's unplayable. I suppose I could try a reinstall, but it was the installation of Parallels 18 that seems to have caused the breakage.

2020 8 GB M1 Mac Mini, Monterey.

@Risk from Palisade used to work fine on Parallels on MacBook Pro 2014. But with MacBook M1, @Risk does not work. The company says it is a problem with Parallels. I hope Parallels can make the fix quickly as we are unable to conduction simulations and risk analysis.

Dear Sami,
I am facing the same issue.
Did you receive any answer from Palisade?
All the best,

Windows 11 ARM64 on M1 air
Metatrader 5 keeps crashing
I used to use metatrader 5 in PDinstalled on windows 11 on m1 mac. Everything was working properly until I was forced to change my version of PD from the app store version to the downloaded version from the website. after that metatrader installed successfully but keeps crashing when trying to resize the window or use strategy tester.
After that nothing could stop crashing this software. I changed back PD to the app store version and even factory reset my mac and installed PD again. but the problem is still there.
 
Total War Warhammer 3 worked fine until the 2.1 patch, now it won't launch. The app will start, but is killed after 10-15 seconds.

Pierre: Palisade said it is not their problem! It is somehow between Microsoft and Apple ... I wish Parallels would come up with a workaround. Not sure if version 18 will solve the problem.
 
Gaming issues could very well all have to do with DirectX compatibility. Since parallels dropped support for Windows 10, and Windows 11 using DirectX 12, it breaks a lot of things that used to work. The Crossover folks have a good article about what's holding up DirectX12 support. Metal3 will hopefully bridge this gap close enough so that DirectX support can be added:

Anyone lately had any success getting the old MS Links 2003 game to run under Parallels 18/Windows 11 ARM? I have not tried for a few months and curious if it is worth trying again. (I also tried under Crossover and couldn't get it to work properly there either.) Thanks.

I created a ticket with Parallels and contacted Palisade support. IMO it is a Palisade problem. Clearly Windows and Parallels work great on M1 and M2 Macs. Palisade needs to fix their software to work in the environment. Why did it work on Intel VMs? Anyone have solutions to move away from Palisade? What a waste of a license payment. I'd like something native to Mac.
