- -- Running Total Annihilation on Windows 10 --
- - Obligatory "this works for me, good luck"
- - Most of this was derived from conversations here: https://www.tauniverse.com/forum/showthread.php?t=45833
- - Go browse the TAUniverse forum for more detailed info if this doesn't help.
- - If any of the links don't work, ping me and I'll fix them
- -- Main Steps --
- 0. Buy Total Annihilation
- 1. Uninstall everything TA-related from the control panel if it's there.
- 2. Clean install TA to a directory without spaces
- 3. Copy the unofficial patch files into the TA directory (download from here: https://www.tauniverse.com/forum/showthread.php?t=46455)
- 4. Try to launch the game, if all seems well, then good job.
- 5. If things aren't well, or if exclusive fullscreen TA is unappealling, see below.
- -- Bonus Steps --
- - DXWND is a way to run fullscreen applications in a window (usually to accommodate older programs like TA that expect fullscreen)
- - When I play TA via DXWND, I can, without issue, alt-tab, use the megamap, and capture the window in OBS without it taking over my monitor. Framerate is unaffected as far as I can tell by this.
- - If you're feeling adventurous: Download DXWND and fiddle with the settings from scratch
- - If you're feeling lazy: download my personal DXWND config, unzip that folder into the base TA directory, and fiddle from there (download from here: https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1aw02-tMz6ExW4WarPPyqp14i8BCyP_km?usp=sharing)
- - Resolution for TA can be changed in-game to zoom in the viewport without changing the window size
- - Changing the size of the DXWND window can be done by modifying the task entry for TA within DXWND via changing the max and min resolutions to the desired value.
- - Forcing the TA resolution higher than the DXWND resolution will probably break things
