Re: Unable to launch Battle Academy on Steam
Yep, I have run dxwebsetup from the redist folder in the steam game folder. I'll be away for a bit, possibly until tomorrow. Thanks for the rapid response, and if you think of anything else to try let me know. :-) I'm starting to think it's worth having a win 7 virtual machine around to run steam ga...

Re: Unable to launch Battle Academy on Steam
the sound is a USB conference phone device. It's worked fine w/everything so far (years of use). It's skype certified and haven't had any issues with it, but I rarely play w/sound on in game. :-) I have added the resolution lines to options.txt but still same deal. Since this seems to be just this m...
