1.30 World Editor

I wasnt sure were to put this so I will put it here.

I downloaded the 1.30 map editor but when I try and run it, it says warcraft 3 was unable to initialize direct x. Please ensure you have Direct x8.1 or newer installed and that your display drivers are current.

This is really weird because I do have direct x8.1, anyone know what the problem is?

Your graphics card, most likely.

Mine is already set to 16-bit but it still won't work and my graphics card is a 3d Accelerator

3d accellerator is not a certain graphics card. Get more information such as brand name.

This belongs in warcraft iii tools, just to let ya know ;)
