What does BVE work like with Vista?

If its not an Intel based Mac... then you have no chance of playing BVE.

Yeah, i'm hoping Mackoy can sort it out, because nobody else can without the source code. If that was available, it will be very easy to fix. I'm hoping the guy still has an interest in doing it, and that he still wants to develop BVE 4, but judging by the date of the last release, it doesn't look good, however, he has just recently updated his website a bit, so there might be some hope.

Having just had another play about, with no success (suprisingly) i'm almost convinced that the problem lies in the Interop.DxVBLib.dll file.

Just found this in the MSTS section....it could be of some use:

Once I installed BVE with Net Framework on Vista, I did a reboot and installed the routes, Set compatibility to XP and ran it. I didn't know people were having problems with running it in Vista.

I did that on my Vista test machine and it didn't work.

Don't be so harsh Being nice might just get you some friends, you never know!:toothy7:

FGW, my sig expresses how I feel, with a little knowledge, about computers. Windows is slow, unstable etc.
Mac does not crash, but hey, I don't like it so...


The results are before you!
