How about a fix for Windows 8, like the XP fix?

What's to fix on Windows 8? Except the bad lagging problems, and that's because of other things external to the game, there seem to be nothing else.
Look better what this game patch is doing so far: fix little game troubles with missing things, like the vehicle showcase and the hudmap. Don't hope for big things with the little game code or what that's got.

BTW, Aaro was researching a fix for the issue of being kicked in multiplayer on minimize. How ended with it?

Still no progress.

When the HUD is turned off, game works normally. Don't need to turn off map and such. Maybe if we made the game display the HUD same way it displays the map?

The map is displayed in 3D, no DirectDraw, the HUD cannot be converted to 3D unless we had source code.

You can solve the problem of the Map Lighting bug and the Rain Sliding bug?

Too many bugs in MM2.
