--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Vietcong and Windows Vista
1. Foreword
2. Required Software
3. Changes on Vista and Direct X
4. Greetings
1. Foreword
The main reason why Vietcong does not run with Windows Vista is simple: Direct X10 is detected as "vchook" or "direct3Dhook"
This Tut will show you how to play Vietcong with Windows Vista although we recommend Windows XP for the next one or two years.
The reason:
Vietcong on Vista with actual hardware: 100-200 FPS ( depends on map )
Vietcong on XP with actual hardware: 250-300 FPS ( depends on map )
2. Required Software
--->>DirectX Eradicator (Source:
www.3dcenter.de/downloads/files/c...-eradicator.zip) --->>DirectX 9.0c (Source:
download.microsoft.com/download/4...2007_redist.exe) 3. Changes on Vista and Direct X
Download both tools
Install the DirectX Eradicator and delete DirextX from your PC
Reboot your PC and cancel the automatic new installation of DirectX
Install DirectX 9c
Reboot, you are able to play now ( Hradba and Dedicated Servers tested ).
Do not update to DirectX 10!
4. Greetings

Cheers, Bob - from all those people (I'm not one of them) that have bought Vista - or had it forced on them by computer retailers who are, in turn, dictated to by the monster that is Microshite.
