Welcome to VOGONS.

Thanks! I've actually been here and reading often during the last years but somehow I never made an account... Finally fixed that 😀

What is the best Option for Win10 and what is for Windows XP?

I use cnc-ddraw with D3D9 with my Radeon on Windows 10

https://github.com/CnCNet/cnc-ddraw/releases

in cnc-ddraw we can choose:
; Renderer, possible values: auto, opengl, gdi, direct3d9 (auto = try direct3d9/opengl, fallback = gdi)
renderer=direct3d9

Win10 Ryzen 7 5800X | TUF B450M-Pro | 32GB DDR4-3800 CL16 | RX 6800 XT
WinXP Core i3-3220 | H77 Pro4-M | 8GB DDR3-1600 CL9 | X1950 Pro
