Hi all, I just want to remind you that the version of DirectX 6 is a BETA. Especially for Windows 98 users THERE IS NO NEED to install it, unless a) the final version is out AND b) there is a game that can't do without it. Again, wait and keep your 5.x versions, as there is NO vivid improvement (for now). As the current version cannot be uninstalled, this could really put you into trouble. Mea***er
You can download the final version of DirectX 6 from the Microsoft website. If you have Win98, be sure to install the "core" version of DirectX 6. James
Same here - no probs what so ever! -- If you want to reply to me in person, please replace nospam with swipnet in my address. Best regards, Richard

If you take F1RS into account you see a huge difference. And I have absolutely no problem with Version 6.
>I dunno about everyone else, but I have absolutely zero problems with DX6 >and Win98...and there is improvements over DX5... No problems at all with Win98, using Windows Update to install it. No performance improvements, but nothing detrimental, either.

You'd be in the minority then... I have it at home and work and all DX6 stuff (including TOCA) works fine. M >> If you take F1RS into account you see a huge difference. And I have > absolutely >> no problem with Version 6. >I have problems with it - it locks up TOCA badly!
