Guild Wars under Windows Vista
Hi Guys,
This is more of a 'in case someone else gets this' post rather than a question. I've installed Windows Vista (Ultimate) and when running the game I get really badly corrupted graphics to such an extent that the game is unplayable. For me there were two things I could do to get around this: 1. Run the game in Windowed mode - not ideal but worked . 2. Run the game with the -dx8 paramater which allowed me to run full screen. To force Guild Wars to run in DirectX 8 mode edit the shortcut t0 the game and add -dx8 to the end of the target line so it looks like this "C:\Program Files\Guild Wars\Gw.exe" -dx8. ANet's stand on this is Vista is not a supported system so they would not help me. I'm running a 7900GTX with the nVidia 96.85 RC2 drivers. It was the same with the nVidia drivers that cam with Vista. Jaxx Last edited by JaxxAllanon; Nov 18, 2006 at 09:32 AM // 09:32.. |
