Just be sure to get the user made patches and mods and you'll be wondering why the hell Quick Silver sucked so much.

I recently dug up the MoO3 disks and reinstalled, and it actually upset me pretty badly. Since I last had played, I upgraded from Win2K to WinXP, different video card, different drivers, etc etc. I played a little and it was fine, and then I discovered a mod pack, and once I installed the mods, I can no longer start a game, as I get the (supposedly generic?) DirectX Surface Not Found (or something like that) error. Starting the game on another machine, I could load the save on this one and play, but the error would consistently crop up again, ruining the game.
I haven't checked out what these people are saying, and I want to give this mod pack a try, but is there any discussion of this DirectX Surface error, and anything that can be done differently to avoid it?
