Hey, so im running Windows 7 64 bits and have a few old games that run on directx 7
they have fine performance by default (some needed some tweaks, some didn't) but i wanted to try your wrapper to see if i could get better performance.
I tried it on RealMyst and Alien versus Predator 2 but with it, the performance is just awful, the game is running at like 2 fps
Im running all my games in exclusive fullscree

im adding my avp2 log, dunno if u need it
DDrawCompat-lithtech.log

This is a known issue for Windows Vista/7 since v0.3.0. I don't have a proper solution yet, but you could try the quick fix attached in this comment to see if it helps: #104 (comment)

Yes this fixed the performance issue, thx
seems to work flawless on AVP2

i noticed some graphical glithces on realMyst running in T&L HAL mode
regular HAL mode seems to work fine so nothing important i guess
