The others didn't indicate they were running a trial version, so that is not likely to be a factor. ![]() I don't have a 2010 or 2012 Mac Pro to test with, but there have been several reports in the community forum from people being unable to install Mojave in a VMware Fusion 11 VM with a complaint from the installer about Metal support, and at least some of those have identified they have a 2010 or 2012 Mac Pro (all the others I saw did have a Metal-capable graphics card). Neither of them had any problem installing Mojave in the VM and neither of them show Metal capability being available within the VM. The 2013 model has Metal support natively, the 2011 model does not. I have Mojave VMs running in Fusion 11 on a 2011 MacBook Pro and a 2013 MacBook Pro (both running High Sierra).
