Armored Princess direct 3d error please help me !!! thanks

[evilbob]

Same boat as you guys. Crashed every few minutes when panning the camera in world view with that annoying direct x error in windows 7. Oddly enough putting the game in windows xp sp3 mode made the game playable with a lot fewer crashes however, i'm now taking the boat to verona and getting the error instantly upon arrival in the first second of the loading video for the island.

Really wish someone would patch this game, even unofficially.
