FAQ: TBCB does not work on Windows 8
TBCB 2.5 actually works on Windows 8! I just tested it with the Windows 8 Release Preview. But you need to use some tricks:
- when you start it first time, you need to run it as an admin (right click the TBCB shortcut and click on "Run as admin..."). Should only be needed once.
- test the game. If it crashes, try this:
--- after starting TBCB, click on "Options" and uncheck the three sound options (play music, play sound, play crowd noises). On my computer, TBCB crashed with sound activated and worked fine after disabling sound. I know, this is only a work around to make it run somehow, sorry. But it will also show that the problem has something to do with the sound API code which I used for TBCB 2.5.
--- right click on the TBCB shortcut and click on "Properties", then open the "Compatibility" tab. Select "Run in compatibility mode for Windows XP" and try again.
