DXWND, And how to use it!

[dyslogistic]

DXWND is an application that forces DirectX applications into window mode. I've tested it with Ys Origin & Ys I & II Complete with little problems.

For Ys I & II Complete, for best compatibility, tick the following settings:

DirectX-DirectX6 [x]
Do Not Notify on Task Change [x] (optional, but stops crashes in Windows Vista more often)
Emulate 256 Color Palette [x]
Direct Input is Hooked

These settings will also work for Ys Origin if you don't have your client patched to the latest version, or you just use ALT+ENTER. But, do not tick Emulate 256 Color Palette for Origin as it is not needed.

And of course the download link: www.plunder.com/DXWnd-download-39070.htm

(Feel free to add me to MSN if you encounter any problems and I'll be glad to help out, [e-mail])

That's nice of you to provide people a guide.

Though in don't use windowed mode for any game at all. xD
