Browedit 586 doesn't work on windows 8.1?

[ToiletMaster]

Hi there!

Would like to confirm if anyone is using browedit 586 on windows 8.1?  I've used 620 without any problems at all, however i do have the issue of having the dark spots which i believe could be solved by using 586, unfortunately it crashes upon configuring the same way i did on 620.

things that i changed are only the directory and GRF files there. nothing else.

Anyone have any idea or any revisions i could use to remove those dark spots atm?

I've tried using compatibility view as well and it did not work.

my OS is currently windows 8.1 professional, 64 bit.

I'm not sure if hardware specs are required but i'll list it down as well

i7 4790

8gb RAM

GTX 760

Thank you.

edit 2:

it seems that it was my negligence that caused this. The issue i had was that i configured the rodesktop in the data folder. And the config file was reading ro.xml instead of rodesktop.xml therefore causing a mismatch in the program. for anyone who has this problem i hope it helps!

I don't think it is related to Windows8.1

I am using r586 with Windows8.1 and works fine.

About your dark spots, do you have any photo?

If it is big like block, change water level  to -20.

If it is very small, go Generate -> Smooth Lightmap -> 1-9(choose one you like, I prefer 7), the problem should be fixed.
