![]() Something the software emulation cannot do. ![]() I very much enjoy this game, and well, I keep XP and older computers around to play it, so that I can use higher resolutions and see the dust and smoke. There are some computers I have had that could display 800 by 600 settings. With Vista and Windows7 on most computers you can only use 640 by 480 settings in the game. The purpose of the direct x video was to maintain backwards compatibility. THis is a problem for versions of Directx9 and lower. The problem lies in how Windows8 and 10 handle directdraw. Windows10 has not fixed this goofup, and it remains unclear if they intend to fix the issue. Its remains backwards compatible much like Windows7 and Vista through software emulation, however, the framerate is painfully slow and unplayable. ![]() ![]() However with Windows8, microsoft made a goof up with the emulation of directx. DDF8 will work just fine on everything from Windows95 to Windows7. I have been modding DDF8 for about 8 years now. ![]()
