If you really need it, I have attached a copy of the one Warcraft III is meant to come with prior to version 1.30. The big question is what is different with it to be causing the problems.Ĭlick to expand.The library is meant to be provided by Blizzard, it has nothing to do with OEM or Microsoft. I tried substituting back in the one used by Windows 7 (from the same folder) but the dll is incompatible with Windows 10 (WC3 throws DirectX not installed error).Īs such d3d8.dll in Windows 10 is different from Windows 7. The d3d8.dll used comes from the SysWOW64 folder (System 32 only if using 32bit Windows 10). I am not sure your d3d8.dll is safe? It is from some Russian site and claims it is a wrapper for d3d9 and it created a batch file in the WC3 installation folder. Further more WC3 behaves as intended when running d3d8.dll you provided but breaks with the d3d8.dll Windows 10 comes with. WC3 does not use d3d9.dll so you should not bundle it with. I am guessing the game is being run in some sort of pseudo Windowed Full Screen mode for resource sharing as part of the DX12 API and the new windowing frame work. It often spikes to "62 FPS" instead of anchoring at 60-59.9 FPS. It would be interesting to know why this is happening. I am also getting bad performance in game with WC3 in Windows 10 as other people have reported. The installer should not be able to run as it was never designed for Windows 10.
