You should start by downloading a copy of a Windows installation ISO.

And an internet connection, which is kind of obvious at this point.ĭownload a copy of Windows to run inside the virtual machine.

At least for the younger players. In my case it's two Xbox 360 controllers which the game readily accepts. Easier for Disney Infinity than a keyboard and mouse. In most cases it'll be a matter of having access to a single second screen of some sort.

Around 15-20 GB of hard drive space on the PC where you'll be installing the virtual machine.

Two Disney accounts for Disney Infinity, preferably with some characters available in both.

An existing installation of Disney Infinity 2.0 for PC would be useful (for copying files over to a new installation).

A Window PC running Windows 7, 8, 8.1 or the new Windows 10.

But anyway we'll give it a shot! Oh and all of this is legal as far as I'm aware so no problems there. To setup things up you'll need the following: If anymore than a couple of people, I being one of them, ever endeavour to set this up I'll be surprised. With this solution your mileage may vary quite a bit depending on how powerful your PC is. How exactly I'm not sure since I'm guessing it requires some element of Microsoft's DirectX (version 9 I assume) to run which in turn generally requires access to a graphics processor. I anyway decided to try running another copy of Disney Infinity 2.0 for PC inside the virtual machine to see if it would run, and it did. The virtual machine doesn't support access to the graphics processor, there is an accelerate 3D graphics option but which I understand utilises the CPU to function. Most PC games require a graphics processor to run correctly, or in many cases even start. So I got the Windows 10 beta installed and running inside the virtual machine on my main PC. Incidentally the Xbox One runs on virtual machines, up to three I think. Of course it would have been possible to dual-boot Windows 8 and the new beta on one of my existing PCs but I instead decided to try setting up the Windows 10 beta inside a virtual machine. But not on PC as already mentioned. In this case two or more PCs side-by-side would do the trick. And this is what I was hoping to setup but didn't have enough PCs.Īt the time the new Windows 10 was available to beta test as part of Windows Insiders Program and didn't have a spare PC for this either. On console it's a matter of placing an additional figure on to the Infinity base for split screen play.

Supposing you wish to setup local multiplayer for the Toy Box modes on PC at home? I think it best when the children can play together in the game, the same goes for any game.
