    Thought i followed instructions and no luck. Is this a problem with win10 ? Had it installed on my old win7 64bit pc and it worked fine. Too nice of a install to pass up if possible.

    For the record, it works in Win10, but I installed it so long ago (possibly in Win7) that I forget any trouble I may have had to overcome. Sorry I can't help but did want to make it clear that it does work in Win10.

    Hi I have PTORS running in Windows 10. I don't recall doing anything different from what you have to do for all installs in win 10, like doing compatability settings, etc.

    One thing is I use different .bat files for setting theatres, I have uploaded the bat files here at SOH.

    As a troubleshooting thing, perhaps firstly try to run PTORS without Ankors shaders installed?

    Though my CFS 3 files are loaded on the "C" drive and not in the (x86) directory, when Win 10 updated recently all my CFS 3 programs stopped working (brief flash screen then quit). It appeared that in the config file all the screen resolutions had been set to something like 640 x 480, so I reset them, each individually, to match my screen resolution and then they all started working again.

    I install all my versions of CFS3 onto another drive, not "C". This seems to overcome the updating problems.

    Got PTO-Rising Sun installed and tested. Success ! Very straight forward . Ankor's shaders really add a lot to it. Maybe win.10 isn't too awful after all.It works ....kicking and screaming ! Cheers,Scott

    I have an old install of PTO I fly, I deleted my RS install because I didn't like the look/feel of it. Is PTO-RS some kind of mashup of the two?

    It is set up kinda like the ETO expansion. Covering the early years of the War in the Pacific it is based on the rise of the Japanese Empire . Regards,Scott

    As I said, I had RS installed........what I am asking is, they are still separate add-ons and not a complilation of both?

    They were completely separate projects.

    As I thought, are there terrain upgrades to the stock PTO before I wade into the Ankor Shaders scenario?
