A few things you can try .... Most will agree on 1)

1) Use the Search menu in the MPC Forums and verify help doesnt lay within its database and if it does spend some time trying to do accomplish it that way. ITS FASTER THAN WAITING FOR REPLIES Becasue lots of peeps only read stuff that is pertinant to them on that day which is quite normal I do the same

If No Luck

2)Go to where your hack is located and Right click the EXE ( Example . EvilConfig Icon ) and choose Properties at the Very bottom of the Right Click menu ,

Select the Compatibility tab and Change its compatibility to the Windows 2000 Option.

If no Luck

4) Go to your C:Windows\System32\ Folder and COPY your d3d8.dll ( Riught click and Organize the folder by name for easier locating.)
now paste the d3d8.dll to your Desktop and rename it to d8d3.dll and cut it by right clicking the dll and selecting the cut option

Go back to your system 32 folder and drop it in there ( IF IT ASKS YOU TO REPLACE A DLL Then answer yes. )

If still no luck

5) Go to direct X Page and reinstall direct x 9c

( YOU WILL NEED TO COMPLETE STEP 4 AGAIN AFTER THE DOWNLOAD )

IF no fix yet

6) Go to your LoaderDlg.cpp search for this strcpy(StartGameCommand, theApp.m_Settings.m_PathToGame);

and below that it should have this code strcat(StartGameCommand, "ArmyOps.exe");

That was one of my First Encounters of a LONG Battle .... If it says anything OTHER Than ArmyOps.exe inside the " " then you need to put it there . The Search button in VS.net can be called by pressing Ctrl + F if you are using vs.net 7 ( thats what I use ) .

7) If STILL NO LUCK PM ME AND ILL Try to help off the public pages as this could get lengthy in this manner

Some of these steps may seem kindergarden but they are quite necassary to ISOLATE the problem and concentrate on coiding the solution

Let me know if you no longer need help im going to print some stuff on Engine Hacking and begin my quest
