I had the same issue trying to use Gazebo along with ROS.

My solution was to downgrade OpenGL from 3.3 to 2.1 as written here: http://www.mesa3d.org/vmware-guest.html

Info:
* Ubuntu 14.04
* VMware Fusion 8

OpenGL 3.3 support can be disabled by setting the environment variable SVGA_VGPU10=0. You will then have OpenGL 2.1 support. This may be useful to work around application bugs (such as incorrect use of the OpenGL 3.x core profile).

So do the following:
$ echo "export SVGA_VGPU10=0" >> ~/.bashrc
