Hello guys.
I and a friend want to make a game of multiplayer on game ranger.
I have windows 7 and the game works well. My friend WinXP, but the game only works with DXWnd..
My friend WinXP and the game only works with DXWnd.
How we can play multiplayer games using DXWndr? On GameRanger the game does not use DXWnd and then the screen is not working.(screen tearing)

THANKS

With XP it should be possible. It was in Vista too, but not Win7 or later.

I use the d3dwindower and not DXWnd smile

[Linked Image]

Select the EAW he wants to run
Click the green triangle.
The box next to it will become red. That makes EAW the "active" emulation.
Minimise the windower but do not close it

When GameRanger runs his multiplayer should be in a window.

Clicking the green triangle is the thing that does not work in Windows 7 or 10. The box never becomes red, but it does in XP.

Maybe you can fly with us at GameRanger- just let us know smile

thank you very much for your availability MrJelly ...

"Maybe you can fly with us at GameRanger- just let us know" .... I sometimes think of it ... which version you use? 1.40?

160 added to the stock 150 install
Check my MediaFire 150 page, especially the "Installation Instructions.rtf" file. Get 150 working in the UAW150V4 folder set-up, then we can do the 160 patches smile

Hello to all,
I discovered that EAW works in multiplayer even with DXWnd program.
The procedure is the same as with the D3DWindower program.
Before you throw DXWnd and then launching the game from GameRanger.

Bye
