BT, there are some minor issues.
Some have been discussed at Matrix. The link above should get you to Matrix and a discussion. They have other threads that talk about "problems" and solutions.

Thank you Silkster53 for your prompt and helpful reply :)

Damn Vista, the curse of the gaming class around the world :mad:

DT, no worries! I was here at the time.

I dread having to purchase a new computer and not have the XP option. :(
I'm hoping to keep this one going for a while longer. :smoke:

I think you can now get either Vista or XP.....even micro soft has seen the light :-)


RE: CS and Vista? - Herr Straße Laufer - 08-31-2008

Whew! The last message I remember getting from Microsoft was that XP was going to be unsupported. Eek

Earl ... That's good news! :smoke:

Last night I tried installing the old Talonsoft WF (Gold). Before running the game I right clicked on the EXE and made it run in 98 mode. Only issues so far are the music and some sounds. They tend to get stuck in a loop but at least the game is still playable! Big Grin

Talonsoft runs under Vista but is not playable. I think units can't fire or something.

Curse you Windows Vista :mad:

Thanks Huib for letting me know. I will keep WF installed and just use it for converting the scenario's to CMAK.
