He guys,

It has been a while but i recently re-installed Giants again.

I first had the problem with bumpmapping i got weird blue textures.

I downloaded the dgVoodoo2 and copies from the MS folder the 3 DLL files to the main folder of Giants.
Now when i run it i get an error message:
Could not initialize direct3D. You may want to check that the latest version o DirectX is correctly installed on your system. Also make sure that this program was compiled with header files that match the installed DirectX DLL's
I checked and have DirectX 11 installed.

Anyone have a solution?

Ty all

Hey there! Seems like something might have gone wrong with the dll's. Did you patch up the game to 1.497 first?

It worked when i tried today. Maybe my computer just needed a restart. Ok, time for another playthrough
