DirectX 6 for NT 4

askii64
Well, here I am again talking about DirectX. . . I downloaded a (not so) little file from today called nt4dx6. zip and it is DirectX 6 for NT, just like it says. It is probably alot like the DX5 hack, but I've yet to check it out so I don't know yet.

A few problems running Warcraft II Battle.net Edition on Vista

Lord Claremorris
Greetings all. I'm at a loss what to do with this game. As a Windows 98/95/NT 4. 0 game it installed fine and launched fine. The problem is that I can't play campaign mode at all. The pre-mission briefing or whatever you wish to call it fails to play and the screen just remains black.
