~farjat 0 Report post Posted July 21, 2013 Edit: This is outdated. We already made a fix in client so noone needs to do this!! Hello. We know theres some Windows 8 users and we know they have problems. Also we know Helbreath cant do much for windows 8 users as its like riding a horse into middle of high speed highway. Also noone on the staff got a windows 8 license as they are hard on our countrys. Im getting windows 8 now and will make some tests. We cant promise much. sorry. theres nothing we can do client side without touching all game. I wil just try to find a walkthrought for windows 8 users to try to make it as better as possible.

~farjat 0 Report post Posted July 21, 2013 The following workaround worked for me. but as i made some previous tests, i need someone to recheck it. If doesnt work, post back here and ill give other hints! 1) Need to Download this tool: http://www.majorgeeks.com/Microsoft_DirectX_Control_Panel_d4017.html 2) RUN IT AS ADMINISTRATOR (very important) 3)Go Direct3D and AND DirectDraw and UNMARK "allow hardware acceleration" 4) OK, apply, and enjoy Helbreath Nemesis with windows 8 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

cor3a 0 Report post Posted July 22, 2013 (edited) i downloaded and opened the file on my desktop. i am running the programm on an administrator account. do i need to paste the file in any specific folder to make the changes? turned off the settings (hardware acceleration) but it's still at 20fps Edited July 22, 2013 by cor3a Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

U need something called Directx9 SDK. u need to find the exact one for your language and architecture (x86 or x64) If u are not having problems with other games, i strongly suggest u NOT TO DO IT.

cor3a 0 Report post Posted July 23, 2013 Have yet to experience it on other games honestly. Just that whenever I go alt tab from helgame to my desktop, the image freeze when returning to helgame (my running footsteps and sounds can still be heard but image freezes) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Tengo windows 8, hice lo que vos dijiste en tu comentario de arriba, pero cada vez que hago alt-tab se me queda dura la imagen al volver al juego. Se escucha el sonido y se nota que sigo logeado, pero no puedo hacer nada, la imagen esta congelada. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
