The Savage Killer Posted September 19, 2008 Posted September 19, 2008 Resolve it please. The game is unplayable for me because of all these GTA related crashes under Vista, which only get fixed using compatibility mode, which doesn't work with MTA due to an issue with the Microsoft DirectX April 2006 SDK Redistributable DLL file (d3dx9_30.dll)! Thanks .
Gamesnert Posted September 19, 2008 Posted September 19, 2008 Why do you need windows 98 compatibility mode? Isn't there an XP compatibility mode? Or can't you do without?
The Savage Killer Posted September 19, 2008 Author Posted September 19, 2008 XP mode doesn't resolve any of the crashes for me in MTA or GTA only Win98 does.
robhol Posted September 19, 2008 Posted September 19, 2008 Vista is crash- and instability-riddled bloatware. I recommend going back to XP or at least checking the known issues FAQ.
Winky Posted September 19, 2008 Posted September 19, 2008 Vista is crash- and instability-riddled bloatware. I recommend going back to XP or at least checking the known issues FAQ. Remember XP before SP2... anyway you could try to reinstall DX9.
Scarface Posted September 19, 2008 Posted September 19, 2008 Remember XP before SP2... anyway you could try to reinstall DX9. Are you serious? Vista does not work with DX9.

darkdreamingdan Posted September 29, 2008 Posted September 29, 2008 MTA doesnt work and has never worked (that is, ever since GTA3MTA 0.1) on systems lower then Windows 2000. Windows 98 wont ever be compatible so you can't really expect compatibility mode to work either. One thing, MTA works fine over here even though im (technically) on Vista. No Compatibility mode required.
paul527 Posted September 29, 2008 Posted September 29, 2008 im (technically) on Vista haha, you got Vista-ized! in a more relevant note: Doesn't MTA work with WINE or Cedega? (I heard about it working fine on WINE (rhyme time), but for how many people?)

Mr.Hankey Posted October 26, 2008 Posted October 26, 2008 scarface Vista still supports DX9 otherwise I wouldn't be able to play San Andreas as it is based on dx9.0c and my graphics card does not even support dx10...
