Dear all,

2D "version" of onlineboxing is great. I play this game mostly when I am at University in order to take a break from whatever case/project I am doing. Last Sunday this University changed from using Windows XP to using Windows Vista. While Vista does have some very nice features and while it really is an improvement from XP in general I have noticed that it is bit raw meaning it does not run that smooth (the operating system itself runs very smooth but some of the 3rd party software have some trouble). There are no major issues but just little things.

Going back to Windows XP is not an option how unfortunate that may be. In time Vista will get it's service bags and in time it will become "the" operation system to use. It really is good and I can only imagine how excellent it will be when everything gets ironed out.

2D "version" of onlineboxing has issues with running smooth under Vista. The Java Applet client itself has problems loading and the downloadable client has it's own problems. It has problems running smooth. It skips frames and does other things similar to issues caused by lag. However unlike lag this frame skipping happens and is seen only in my end or in general in the end where platform used is Vista.

Just for example if fighter A and B have a match and fighter A is running Vista and fighter B is running XP fighter A will suffer from lag like issues where as everything will run smooth for fighter B. I am affraid 2D is not compatible with Vista for whatever reason. Now since 3D is in the making I do not expect 2D to be made Vista compatible nor it should be. All efforts should be directed towards releasing 3D.

Since I got no option to go back into using XP and since 2D does not really work with Vista that well at all I am afraid I have to retire from onlineboxing till 3D is released. It was fun while it lasted and I hope to see you all in 3D. Take care!

Special thanks for Larry for some very great close fights. Same goes for Boxa. Thanks to Oscar and Ray for being cool persons and helping me to train. Thanks to HTF for being though opponent. Thanks to Unstoppable and Fatny for beating me in the ring and giving me a goal to work towards. Last but not least thanks to Mikkel for this game.



With best regards,

Rocky Marciano

Does changing the compatibility mode in the exes properties do anything ?

Downgrading your java, maybe this is different on Vista somehow. I can't really think right now of anything to do as I've never had a problem and I don't use Vista.

My mate has Vista, when I'm next at his I shall have a play with it and see if it happens on his machine and then I'll see if I can get around it somehow. Maybe there is an emulator out there, who knows.....

Anyways, good luck with uni etc and see you on 3D.

Regards

Donny

There is a possibility that upgrading Java from 1.5 to 1.6 could help. I am not sure about this but I think that when switching from XP to Vista they wiped everything clean and are now in process of upgrading various programs, components etc. I can only wait and see if the computer center here upgrades Java globally from 1.5 to 1.6. Maybe it could help but then again maybe it would not do a thing. If only I had admin rights I would upgrade it myself.

Thanks for everyone.
