In short, Vista is having huge troubles with RO.
my error message
i dont know what to do. I deleted local content and allowed it to redownload, but it doesnt start up. it started doing this when i changed the video driver in CONFIG from "direct 9.0" to "software"
now RO doesnt even start.
but what happened before was even more lame....
i did this change because in Vista , RO only ran in windowed mode.... whenever i went to config to change it to fullscreen, the game would crash. whenever i tried changing the res, the game would crash.
this lead me to my current problem when i tried changing the video driver. now i dont know how to revert my changes because the game doesnt even open. i am in a complete pickle, and have no idea what to do.
right now im extremely angry at Vista... i want to be playing my lovely game again... but i need some help with that. if possible, i request a fix for Vista, because it really is screwed with RO.
bugs ive noticed where the scenery sort of comes in and out of existence sometimes... not extreme, but slightly annoying. just doesnt work as flawlessly as it did on XP.
any help?
please dont tell me to go back to XP, or ill gut you.
