    OH NOES! someone help!

    INFO:
    Allright so i got a new PC. its a dell and everything on it came with it! other then WoW of course. It came with vista if that helps.

    Ok heres my question. On my old PC i have been model editing for a while, so when i got my new one i wanted to redo some of my edits. So i went to get MyWarcraftStudio. i have version 0.10.6337 (i think thats a new one idn). allright, so once i download it, i extracted it, all good. when i go to open it, i get a "sorry" message (i think thats vista's version of ERROR!) anywho, this is what it says!

    "Sorry

    Error to create render device!
    Please install the graphic card driver provided by its hardware
    Vendor.
    M$'s driver is poor for OpenGL"


    So thats it. i was like wtf. now im stuck running around in gay BC gear, i look like a patchwork quilt. please help me!

    Any info you need about my PC just let me know, im not very good at stuff like this so sorry if that message is REALLY obvious . thanks a bunch!

    I think that pretty much answers your questions. Vista is a bit buggy though as most developers have yet to push out some working drivers for hardware.
    I'm also not 100% sure that MWS works with Vista though I have heard it does.

    Re: OH NOES! someone help!

    well, MWCS isn't designed for Vista at all, so that right there gives you some problems. (on a side note, laugh at you for having Vista before the first SP.)

    Second, I know that the Render Device error comes up when you try and open an MPQ by right click ~> MWCS, that's just a bug. You just have to open MWCS from the exe and select an MPQ.

    Third, the fact that you're running ten says a lot. Heres something to try. I want you to find the folder where you extracted MWCS. Then navigate to the Config folder. In there, find MyWarcraftStudio.XML. Right click open with note pad.

    From there, hit ctrl-h and replace OpenGL with DirectX. Save it and try the run it again. This might fix it.

    Fourth, revert back to .9 if neither of these options work. You'll lose the model viewing ability, but that's minor.(Also delete M2craft.dll if you revert, so that you can extract models.)

    That's all. If nothing fixes it, then Vista is your problem.
    The Age of Exploration is over. Now is the Age of Creation.
