Celeris Forums

AlinVille, THANKS for the reply. That worked perfectly--well almost anyway. It did indeed keep my scores and career stuff intact. But surprisingly--or maybe not so surprisingly--other settings were not saved. I guess things like my selected video mode and such are in the registry. But getting those ...

A couple days ago, I installed VP3DL and it has been working perfectly for several days. I even tried a few games at GameSpy with no problems. I then decided to go ahead and uninstall my old version of VP3. The two versions were located in totally different folders and even in the Registry, all the ...

Finally gave up on getting old version to work.
Installed VP3DL and worked perfectly on first try.
Thanks guys for all the suggestions!
Maybe I will see you at GameSpy.

Well that did not work either.
I tried setting my resolution to 800X600.
I also tried changing Full Screen X and Y in the Registry to other possible settings.

I think my next option is polomint77's suggestion to edit the Full Screen X and Y in the Registry. Will let you know how that go...

Thanks guys for all the suggestions! They sound very workable so I hope they work. As for 9balldotcom, thanks for the invite--I think :) Haven't been here before because I did not even consider a place like this existed! But then, I guess I should have known. After all, EVERYTHING seems to be on the...

I have been using VP3 since at least 2001-2. I have been able to keep it working successfully through multiple computer, monitor, and operating upgrades and continue to enjoy it immensely! I was even more amazed to see Celeris was still running a forum with active players! To say the least, that is ...
