SoundGammon Posted June 25, 2019 Share Posted June 25, 2019 Here's the Atari arcade version of Star Wars updated for the PC! Star Wars.zip Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flojomojo Posted June 25, 2019 Share Posted June 25, 2019 That was a really good remake, but I haven't been able to get it to work right in Windows 10, even after replacing the missing DLL. I believe that came from a retro remakes competition, and the others are here https://archive.org/details/2006CompoEntries Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SoundGammon Posted June 27, 2019 Author Share Posted June 27, 2019 Doesn't work with Windows 7 either! Neither does MICROSOFTs TRAIN SIMULATOR! Glad I got XP 2015 Edition! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JBerel Posted June 30, 2019 Share Posted June 30, 2019 I got this to run on Windows 10 today with minimal effort. I placed the missing DLL in the folder with the StarWars exe and set the exe to run in compatibility mode for Windows XP (2) at 640x480. It's not a bad homebrew. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The missing dll (d3drm.dll) can either be added to your windows\system32 directory or drop it into the folder where the games EXE file resides.

SoundGammon Posted July 1, 2019 Author Share Posted July 1, 2019 Downloaded it and installed in both the Windows System 32 folder and the Star Wars folder. Works great! Don't even have to run it it compatibility mode! Thanks! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JBerel Posted July 26, 2019 Share Posted July 26, 2019 (edited) Hmmm....not sure why it would do that. Probably an incompatibility with your graphics hardware or drivers. Edited July 26, 2019 by JBerel Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheCoolDave Posted July 30, 2019 Share Posted July 30, 2019 For those looking for the dll.... http://www.dlldownloader.com/d3drm-dll/ I downloaded it from there, extracted it and dropped it in with the game... I DID need to set Windows XP compatibility for it to run tho. Quick check, looks pretty cool.... at work so I cant really play now...
