      RE: BVE 2.5

      Are you both using Win XP, and have you read the instructions on my BVE Help page regarding setting the compatibility options for BVE.exe to get BVE's 640x480 full screen setting to work?

      Cheers,
      Anthony.

        Hi Anthony,

        Yeah I've got XP. For me I thought I could run BVE sort of like MSTS. I know now I can't ;-)

        Still like BVE though! Thanks for pointing me out to your site, that's very helpful information you've got there. Thanks.

          OK, i got to the FAQ, but it says nothing about XP users.
          Anthony, have you got it working in full screen?
          Can anyone else help?
          many Thanks,
          Pete

            Pete,

            I use XP Pro and my Bve runs full screen with no compat mode set, average framerates are 20-25 even on X-City South, not bad for my trusty old PIII 450 :P

            But.... it won't run in a window at all, just exits and dumps me back on the desktop.... only started after I tried 2.5... I knew that thing was trouble!

            Tell me your system config and I'll see what we can do..

            Ciao

              OK, XP remember which one(Sorry), 700mhz.
              I have sorted it. Try this: Set the compatability to 98 and run BVE. That stupid box is what ive been seeing all along.

              I just took the compat out, and its worked fine!LOL. Stoopid me!

                Pete,

                Reading the fine print on Mackoy's download page, it does say Bve is for Win95/98/2K/XP ...
