You must use compatibility mode: Windows 2000
start with 256 colors
Start with desktop reselutiion 640x480. Dont Worry you can change the resulotion in the game to 1024x768
disabel Visual Designs
and the other stuff under settings.
And you must run it as an administrator!
Sorry for my english i am from german i must learn a little bit:o
I have upload the color fix for Vista that you need when you have trouble
with the colors. Its a txt i know I have to upload that as an txt because
for zip or rar file it is to big.
You do open the color data so:right click, open with and than you take
win rar or win zip. Do open the data in the zip folder and extract the datas in your folder with Worms World Party. Then you must open the data install FIX - WWP. Then you open the game normaly.
HAVE FUN AND ENJOY IT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!:D:D
I HOPE I CAN HELP YOU:cool::cool:
Contact me when you want to play online with me

Uninstall wwp, then go into the installer folder on the cd and run setup.exe in windows 98 compatability mode. This worked for me.

1) Uninstall the game
2) Find the Worms World Party Folder and delete it (usually C:\Team 17\Worms World Party\)
3) Install Worms World Party
4) Copy the DATA folder from your CD to the game directory (overwriting the files)
5) Apply the SP1 Patch (optional)
6) Install this Fix (http://forum.team17.co.uk/showthread.php?p=694590)
Try these steps, and tell me.

Still doesn't work, but I did remove the folder before uninstalling, if that's the problem.

My problem is the same as the first post in the thread.
And I don't know how to find my chipset; how do you?
