Ello,

Still having D3D problems. I am using a P3 667 with 512MB Ram, Voodoo5 AGP, and can't install any DirectX other than 8 (currently using 8.1). When I run W&W with D3D(all modes), the main screen comes up and is ok till it checks the CD and the options pop up. Then the screen has Horizontal issues. I can see enough to click on Start the Game it takes me to the Town screen but I see images from the main screen and from Alien vs Predetor2, which I just recently installed and have been playing. The Intro to AVP2 is messed up as well but the game play is perfect.
When I run W&W in Software mode, all is fine. Also, since I read some issues about it, I am using a copied version of the Game from my originals,which I can't find. I'm more than half way through the game and would like to continue, any suggestions?

Thanks,

DS
