Hi everyone!

It looks like Windows 10 is here (I'm logged on from one and using the all new browser Edge) and many of us usually get a bit worried if these updates will eventually ruin our Nexus gameplay. Gladly so far it hasn't done anything bad in Nexus, but typing long messages here in Nexus Forums looks terrible with M. Edge. Looks like I'll stick with Google Chrome still.
Share your experiences with the update or your concerns about doing as we who already got updates can help you out if you still haven't.

Running Windows 10 Just fine, followed a guide to Re-install Nexus

-Right click the TK install File and run it as a administrator

-install it in your Documents not in Program files.

-Right click the NexusTK Shortcut icon on your dekstop and go to Compatability

-In compatability use these options.

*Run program as windows XP service pack 3,
*Tick Reduced color moade 16-bit 65536 colors
*Run this program as an administrator.

Probably not, i knew windows 8 was a problem so i didnt want issues and decided to apply the windows 8 "fix" that fixes the freezing mouse bug plus i installed it in my documents so windows would use my username for file and folder documents and not have permission problems.

The biggest issue with Win8 and TK is that the game will crash all the [Content removed]ing time. It's infuriating. Casting a lot of spells or having a lot of people moving around or walking "into" someone causes the game to crash.

Using Nexus on the Win 10 RT I had a few crashes too. It wasnt as frequent as 8.1, but they were still there. Hopefully that is fixed since the OS is now live. Now if only my laptop will upgrade from the RT to the official release >.< Still havnt been able to do that yet.

Do we know if the crash issue is because of the OS or because of Nexus' client being out of date or incompatible, or maybe some sort of innate DirectX problem?

I had Windows 8, Window 8.1 and Windows 10. Never had random crashes, so it's probably not on the Nexus client side.

Could be DirectX indeed, because that's the only thing that didn't work for me now when I tried to put fullscreen mode to test. I never really used Full screen mode in Window 8 or Window 8.1 so I wouldn't know if worked or not. What I do know is that full screen won't work for me now (not like I care).

Windows 8 and 8.1 cause you to crash in excess when you're pking or in areas with a lot of stuff going on.

hello guys let me give you a feed back on the changes of windows 10 and how it improve or not first of all if your going upgrade be warn that your need to set your sliding scale display options to 100% not 125 because if its 125 your get a pull over screen not showing the whole screen of nexustk plus make sure to run it in a lower volume maybe because if you use the default display setting and all that your still see full screen clearly but it will be a smaller screen with smaller avatars and wording it in and out of all the rest for bugs and issues and crashes just make sure your taskbar is not showing when alt tabing in and out of the game theres a up arrow key on the right of your task bar which will fix this problem and thats pretty much it hope it helps everybody.
