How to run W:A on Windows 8?

Kaleu · December 09, 2012, 07:57 PM

Today I installed W:A in my Windows 8, but sadly I got this incompatibility:

This way, I'm not allowed to pick scheme or map, also when I start the game I can only see a black screen, that's all.
What can I do?
A new updating coming, maybe?

Thanks Stephen Walking.

Hey, method 2 worked but I have too much lag, really much, I can't even move my worm in the game, exactly like this.
Btw the menu is a bit lagged also, how can I fix it?

Why do you have to come back? Your retirement was going really well.

Actually I'm not planning to comeback, I am moderator of a W:A community at Orkut.com, and I need to know more tips to help others.
By the way don't struggle to try annoy me, I've changed, I'm not going to take part in your jokes, I've been avoiding to post here due of that.

Tip them that the best way to run WA on windows 8 without problem is downgrading to windows 7.

Gogogo try the new renderers! They're in the advanced options.

Finally, but I moved to windows 7 yesterday... Anyways, that's good to remove some bugs.
StepS call Kawoosh to update wkKawooshkick.dll , wkLocalizer.dll and rubber now.

edit: Teh first thing Ive noticed, is that W:A menu is loading extremely fast, especially when I click to go to map editor and teams. VGJ t17.
