Armor Command now also supports NT 4.0 running Direct X 3.0 in Software emulation mode. You have to have Service Pack 3 installed under NT 4.0 in order for Armor Command to work. Unfortunately Direct X 3.0 doesn't support Native 3D hardware acceleration, so for now, you will have to run in software mode only. Armor Command plays well in software mode, but to get the best performance and look in the game we do recommend that you run in Windows 95 with Direct X 5.0 and use a 3D accelerator card. We recommend a minimum of a 200mhz Pentium with 32MB RAM to run Armor Command under NT 4.0 in Software Rendering mode.
Armor Command has also been tested on, but
has not been certified on Microsoft Windows 98 and Microsoft Windows NT
5.0. Full support for these new operating systems will be added when they
ship. If you are a beta tester of one of these operating systems and want
to run Armor Command, here is a bit of help. Armor Command runs fine under
Windows 98 with hardware acceleration. No major problems with Windows 98
have been reported. If you are running Windows NT 5.0 with Direct X 5.0,
acceleration should work, but it has not been properly tested. Software
emulation mode still works, though.

*Certified Support is Coming Soon
If your card is not listed, that doesn't mean it won't work. Many Video cards use the same chipsets.
The following 3d accelerators and chips are fully supported within Windows 95 running DirectX 5.0
You may have to install updated DirectX 5.0, video
or sound drivers for your system in order for Armor Command to work correctly.
The CD will ship with many updated drivers for you. Please look in the
directory called " x:/win95 video drivers/ " (where x is the letter of
your CD-ROM drive) to find any of the updated video card drivers that we
provide for you. Ronin Entertainment and Ripcord Games are not responsible
for any of the content provided to us by third party video card companies.
Installing these drivers is your responsibility, and we are not liable
for any problems that might occur when installing these drivers.

For you serious game players, we are also trying to add support for
these other vendors by the time we ship. Please check our website for more
information.
And probably some more to come soon!
If you are a hardware manufacturer that isn't listed here, but would like to be included in this list and directly supported by our engine, please contact troyd@roningames.com . We are working hard to support as many 3d accelerators natively as possible.
