Unfortunately I can't help if the problem isn't with the Windows 8 fix I made, however if we can figure out the cause of theleif's and DoorGunner's issues that would help too.

@theleif, I send you a Private Message (last week) regarding your issue, if you could please get back to me on that.

Update News: I'll be releasing an update of the fix shortly, it's nothing of great significance but does allow users to start a "Cliffs of Dover" server on their pc's (I'm sure someone will want sooner or later).

Ah, not used to getting private messages, I've replied now.

While this fix is greatly appreciated and was the only reason I finally switched to Windows 8, (thank you), I noticed that the SweetFX FXAA injector/color correction .dll no longer works with Cliffs of Dover.

I have a feeling it's a simple .dll reference in a file somewhere that needs to be changed so that the hook catches the proper .exe...or I could be wrong because I have no idea what I'm talking about. Any chance at taking a look so I can get my awesome colors/FXAA back?

EDIT: Nevermind, silly me...I'd forgotten to disable FRAPS overlay, which is incompatible with FXAA injectors. All is working well.
