Errors with Vista 64 (Version 2010-06-15)

Post by deathserv »

Hi,

Thanks so much for the great program. Nice to see people reviving an old favorite.

I am trying to get MW2 Mercs to work on my computer (Vista 64 Bit). I can't seem to get it to run properly in either the DOSBox or the Windows version.

DOSBox: Everything works great, game runs perfectly, until I try to start a mission. Screen goes black and just goes back to the failed mission screen. I tried renaming _dplay.dll to dplay.dll as instructed in another post but that didn't work. I also created a CD image and pointed MechVM to it while installing as I was told, but that didn't seem to work.

Windows version: Repeated "encountered an error and need to close" windows. This is accompanied by "Process ended with code 255" in MechVM. Anyone else seeing this problem?

Thanks for your input.

?

If not, please post what is printed on your CD so we can get an idea of what edition of Mercs you are talking about. Please attach install-report to that post.
