Still problems with tracks and turrets?

Ok, MegalomaniacNG Guy says it run on w7. As far as I can remember, that is true. I have even lying around somewhere a copy of Panzer Elite. But in other threads i can read about the same old shi... probs with missing turrets and non moving tracks.
Can someone tell me what's fact ? September 2015

Very good work to get the game running. You explained what you did to get the game running in an understandable way. Thanks. Great job.

Hi, I'm creating a corrective mod to improve the game. Dopilivayu optimization game for Windows Vista-Windows 10. Soon there will be a new version of the game, which will be many times better than the original. Panzer Elite Action-alive!

we love you

Download dgVoodoo 2 here[dege.freeweb.hu].
Unzip the files into the folder were is the executable of the game and unzip the d3d dll's into this folder as well. Skip the 3dfx files as this game is DirectX based.
Anyway if you're stuck read the instructions.

I haven't played as far as I get the mission with the Tiger tank yet but it seems to work.

I have the retail version of both games (when it was called First Battalion) and can state that this fix does indeed work. I now have moving treads and the Tiger tank is complete with a turret now. Thanks Dot Matrix !

Hi. Anybody found solution for not moving tracks? (i read some comments but i did not found it) . I searched the discussions hoping to find a mod, because i was thinking that not moving tracks was a design feature maybe and not a bug; because the game is nice and funny but the frozen-tracks makes the tank seems a hovercraft :)

Maybe changing some ".dll" or ".db" file could work (opening "settings.db" with notepad has options like "fullscreen, showgameinfo, geforcehack") but i'm not modder, i have not idea which one.

OFFTOPIC: i arrived to this game, thinking that was like a saga part of another game i played, very similar to this one, i write the title to recommend it if someone could be interested to play it: "Panzer Killer", i liked that had some kind of zoom when firing (and moving tracks). I have been all these years waiting that someone could create a remake adapted to our technology of the original "Panzer Elite" (it had tons of features and simulation options), and also a remake of "M1 Tank Platoon 2" (played thousand hours :) )

FIXED: Tracks and wheels working now!
Please see the comments above by Dot Matrix and others re: "dgVoodoo2" site - http://dege.freeweb.hu/dgVoodoo2/dgVoodoo2.html Follow instructions and place the relevant files in your Panzer Elite Action directory. The tracks and wheels are there in super detail. Have not gotten to the Tiger tanks yet, so Idk if turrets work. My antivirus picked up one of the files as malicious and deleted it, but it works like a charm...I guess because there are files in the zip download that we don't use, like the 3dfx files. Thanks a lot to the author of the dgVoodoo2 files! It really does work!

Thank you plasmajam. It works. I downloaded "dgVoodoo2", decompressed and look for file "D3D8.dll", copied this file into game folder and now the tracks and wheels look awesome realistic. Very good game, great atmosphere. Ah, and yes, don't worry about if antivirus says a false positive, it is a false alarm just due to the way these dll files work.
