Tactics crash upon booting

Post by Vulgar_Monkey »

Another problem from me (sorry!) again a known issue.

It's the one where booting presents you with a black screen, which upon alt. tabbing reveals an error message "C:\dev\phoenix blahblah cannot display primary or back surfaces" (or words to those effects), and then gives me a runtime error before quitting out.

If anyone knows of a fix, it'd be appreciated.

Tactics worked fine when I played it a couple of years ago......

Sorry to break it to you but you'll possibly need to wait for an answer until starfury comes by. In the meantime read through this http://www.duckandcover.cx/forums/viewt ... tics+crash
maybe something will give you a clue.
