Wc3 Viewer... On Vista...

[Kaitech[SanD]]

Meep... Just me...

I'm having problems with Wc3 Viewer...

It's slow and cuts half the model off rendering it useless, it never done this on an XP based machine, I'm on Vista... (Do not turn this into a rant about how much Vista sucks... Please...)

I was wondering if there's a more Vista-Friendly way to use it or another program I can wrap my textures onto...

Told you. Vista hates everything, not only Third Party software, but especially Homebrew.

GG no RE with Vista. Uninstall now, before it's too late.

Meep... I thought there was a menu somewhere that allows you to switch between XP and Vista?

I know Vista hates everything, but someone has to be the guinea pig to find out what it hates and likes...

Right-click on the program, and go to the Compatibility tab. Select "Run this program in compatibility for Windows XP (Service Pack 2). Then check both the "Disable Visual Themes" and the "Disable Desktop Composition" boxes.

I have Vista. It works fine for me.

(Although I have a slightly borked version due to me nuking the hard drive and reinstalling Vista from scratch; somehow that got rid of lots of Vista's bugs. Huh.)

Nope, this still hasn't fixed the slowness and the fact that it rips parts away...

Huh. Well personally I stick to Magos for viewing models etc. Only thing I use WC3 Viewer for is converting .tga's to .blp's.

Could I have a link to the download please? Also, can it wrap skins? :3

 

[Pyritie]

It can do both of them.

And it's in the tools section here. You of all people should know that.

 

[Kaitech[SanD]]

Meh... I don't visit the tool section on a regular basis...

 

[Pyritie]

Well then now is a good time to start.
