Alternative Disruptor Fix?, Alternative way to fix the Disruptor crash. Options

well today i had a thought on what weapon to give the disruptor similar to its original wich is the SonicZap (sadly with its original it generates a dreadful Internal Error from Waveclass, and i cant use Hyper's disruptor patch because it gives me "Failed To Initialize" error if some could tell me how to fix this thad be great) anyway i was thinken of changing the Disruptors fire animation to that of a Green/Blue flame (flame animation from the Devil's Toung) i can duplicate the flame animation but i dont know the code to change it to a Green/Blue Flame and i also dont now how to make last the duration of the original Sonic weapon, the reason for the flame weapon on the disruptor is because they both have almost the same way to cause damage since each keeps knocken off health the longer thier attack duration well what do u think? can yall help me with this

My original idea had been to give it the Green/Blue Laser animation and set the Details to Normal (in order to prevent the Laser waveclass error, and of course ive had ion cannon waveclass in the past but thier rare of course they still need a fix) but the Laser is way to freakin thin on Normal Detail settings and even though its Transparent it wouldnt be all wavy like the SonicZap so it kinda wouldnt really be a suitable animation for the Disruptor

as an alternative use the original game.exe and put the ddraw.dll from this topic @ ppm in your TS folder.

The ddraw.dll disables directdraw for the game and fixes this way for most people all the waveclass errors caused by laser glow, sonicbeams and ion cannon ripple effect. In several cases it even enhances the performance and removes lags ingame.

However in rare cases it causes a black screen. In this case you have to remove the dll again and use Hypers patch.
