I got a new PC with Vista 64bit, and when I want to play renegade with 3.4.4 it says I need dx9. But I got dx10 so why would that not work.
I tried compatability mode/admin and stuff too.
When I try without the new scripts, I just get a BLACK screen, and nothing else. I do hear sound.
How can I get it to work?
Update: I fxed the black screen problem by using ren default scripts, and XP SP2 compatability mode. Anyway I can get the newest to work?

The background is actually a physical model with fixed aspect ratio, so screens which are not 4:3 will have bits of it chopped off because they are actually rendered off the screen. As for why it used to work with the default scripts, I couldn't say. I guess some of the stuff for shaders.dll altered how it worked.
Also, you might notice some fonts and text labels look retarded and oversized, which I think is linked to the same thing. They are for me anyway.
Regarding AA, I think it tends to work best with 4x or 8x from what I recall, some of the levels can be a bit wierd.
