...Is as far as i get when i try to join an AoC lobby, and when i go to activate DirectPlay in Legacy Components (http://www.voobly.com/pages/view/1623), it asks me to restart my computer to complete the installation. After starting windows up again though, when i go to check to see if it DirectPlay's box is still checked, it isnt...
How do i get DirectPlay to stay on? Im currently using windows 10.
Thankyou
win 10 should be using DX 12 or what ever already.
try setting up from this guide: https://support.voobly.com/display/vkb/KB1054+Clean+installation+of+Aoe2HD+with+compatibility+patch

DirectPlay failed to load properly. This is probably an OS installation bug. You might need to reinstall your operating system. Windows 8.1 and later users can install DirectPlay through Control Panel -> Programs -> Turns Windows features on or off -> Legacy Components -> DirectPlay.
This is so frustrating! How do you advise me to proceed?
do you have the user account enabled and are you logged in to the pc as a admin?
while installing if you have an anti-virus and a pc firewall on, try turning them off during the install and see. also close down skype.
its what some MS forums have recommended for this problem
Im sure its probably the most basic of things that im getting wrong, but i can seem to find what!
installed compatibility patch V5 into C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\SteamApps\common\Age2HD
is that correct? at the end of the day, i feel like it has to be something that im not getting right with the patch, because it just doesnt seem to want to pick up that im using directx 12, and that it still wants to activate DirectPlay for some reason! ><!!
did you follow this guide exactly?: https://support.voobly.com/display/vkb/KB1054+Clean+installation+of+Aoe2HD+with+compatibility+patch
do you have an anti-virus app installed?
on the legacy page, is the netframework 3.5/4.5 checked?
if you have the game cd, it may install dp/dx automatically. [or any older game cd.]
I have meticulously followed the guide yes
I have no anti virus apps installed
on the legacy page, is the netframework 3.5/4.5 are not checked, and when i do check them, and reboot the computer, they stay unchecked, just like my DirectPlay issue
And, i dont have the game cd, i download it off of steam.
I give up... thanks for all the help anyways guys!
