Well it's not the mod it's self but the Death Star map thats bugged in Vista and the devs said they are working on a Fix for it but thats like the number one played map in the whole game. I would love to play it but sadly Vista that I run on won't let me play it for more then ten seconds.

Other maps in fact all the other maps work just fine on my PC.

hi SC271, i have vista and pb just with Yavin.
But now i can play it.
my solution, load and start anyother map, press (left) alt touche =whithout 3d map icones,
leave this map and load directli Yavin.
you can play, but no 3d icone and no orders bouton during the game or welcone crash.
Hope help you.

You don't even have to do that, just load Death Star normally, and press Alt+Tab at the same time you click "join game". Then Alt+Tab back to the game. Works fine with Vista SP1+8800GT.

I think this should be included to the map description until it gets fixed.

Re: does nobody play first strike anymore!?

Have any of you vista types tried playing in windowed mode?  I'd bet that would also fix it.

To set windowed mode right click on your shortcut and press "properties."  change the "windowed 1" flag at the end of hte line to "windowed 0" and Voila!  Windowed mode is also great for load times or downtimes-you can browse the internets and chat on IM while you wait.  I can also assure everyone there's no more lag in windowed mode than fullscreen.
