Is anyone able to use Titanium/Underfoot and Windows 8?

[blackz71]

I have tried both fresh installs of Titanium and Underfoot and I cannot load the character select screen on my local LAN server. I have done many of the fixes including matching the resolution of the machine and EQ client, but I just cannot get to the character select screen.

I am thinking it is related to not having DirectX9c on Windows 8. Even when i downloaded the binaries from MS it will not install because it isn't supported in windows 8.


Anyone using Windows 8 able to use a fresh install of either of those clients on a public or private server? Any ideas or help is greatly appreciated.
