Weird, it told me I was up to date.  ::)

Apparently I need to update Direct X 9 or something. It keeps giving me error messages when I try to start my game.

I discovered via a different application that MS slipstreamed a new version of DirectX 9 sometime mid-late last year.  Version 9c, I think it is. Windows updater doesn't automatically install it -- you have to go to the MS site and download the installer directly.

Jelenedra, did you put the crack in the right place? I kept getting that error when I put the crack in the wrong place on BV. Majorly annoying brain fart. It has to go in the ..../TSBin folder, if I recall correctly.

Seriously. I was screaming at Addison. "I have Direct X10, bitch!" didn't make him cooperate. Putting the crack elsewhere did.

Oh to be a fly on the wall at Fuzzy Pumpkin's house...

As a person who just downloaded a crack and arrred version, it pleases me to say "baaaaa" for this tip.

I believe this is the problem. Putting the crack in the correct place did not retifiy the error, but I was told at PMNN that I should reinstall and try it again the correct way. So I was going to try that tonight, after installing the second BV patch. I forgot the first time.
