Looking for Windows 10 tester - 07/17/15 01:42 PM

Is anyone here running Windows 10 yet? I need to straighten out some possible compatibility issues in ome of my earlier games. It doesn't have to take more than a few minutes + the installation of the game in question.

Thanks in advance!

The "official" release isn't until July 29. I will be getting it, so would be glad to do your testing. I did similar testing for your earlier games on Windows 7 too!

Mikael, I am running Windows 10 insider preview! Yesterday there was (probably) the final update before the release, so I can test what you want!

By the way, I tried running older Carol games - the good thing was that 'big fonts' are no longer the problem, they are displayed correctly.
Well, almost correctly... Older 'Adventure Maker' engine still works bad in a way in Windows 10.

Thanks both of you!

Iurii, do you mean that the sound for the games created in Adventure Maker works as it should? That was what I was trying to find out.

Mikael, as for the first three games, I have only Russian disk versions at my disposal. They are based on Adventure Maker 4.4.0 - and unlike English versions they do not have Vista patches.

So, no - there is no sound in Windows 7 or Windows 10. If you want you can send me updated English versions to test or anything else!

However, I have created myself a patch for Russian version of 'Remedy' by re-building it in Adventure Maker 4.7.1 smile Music thus works in Windows 7 and Windows 10, but changing screen resolution does not work in Windows 10 unlike Windows 7 - there is an error when exiting the game.
