Win XP compatability for various Shrapnel games? - Page 2

seiv will run on xp.

i can play 1.41
and 1.67 on the xp machine.

so far i have tested seiv on all the nt flavours and win 9x flavours.

It also will work with linux kernal 2.2 and up with a good wine.

The SEIV design is simplistic for graphics and sound. This is a strenght in porting.

If you have any problems it may be with a conflict with a vga graphics service running in the back ground.

VGA PROBE that comes with ASUS Cards may give it problems on the installs

If it does just end that service.

Thanks again guys!

I've had no problem except the noted conflict between MS Mediaplayer & SEIV Gold both trying to play my music CDs.

I figured it out (ie fixed 'my' headspace & timing for those familiar with the ol M2HB.)

I was just concerned before I bought SEIV Gold since I didn't see any (maybe I missed it) official Shrapnel "This game works with MS's XP."

Thanks for the repeated feedback ... and I'll probably play with SEIV for a while. Hopefully I'll have time to start to multiplayer & at least load/play some of the mods.

take care
