Run Lego Football (Soccer) Mania on Windows 10 ... sort of

So I saw an "article" about this game running on Windows 10. I knew this problem already because I wanted to play this game on my PC as well. I searched the internet and found an installer for windows 10. It installed and let me start the game like normal. I could go thru the options and everything went fine but the problem come when I try to start a game (after the character selection part) the game crashes and gives me an error "D3D8 Application: A D3D object has a non-zero reference count (meaning things were not properly cleaned up)". I mean it runs at least til the menu but my guess is, that this is a graphical error. If some knows how to fix this problem then I and my other can enjoy this game again. Because on a VM it can't detect GPUs and a full PC is just unnecessary (I could try dual boot)

 

PS: If it is in a wrong section please let me know. I am still new

P.S.

Sorry for replying to this thread without actually answering the question. I just wanted to show sympathy and bump the thread :old_wink:

Hey i got the game running on windows 10 i just used the same installer you linked and then opened the game folder then Mania and then there is a folder called CD. I replaced this folder with the one thats on the Actual CD. Now its  seems to work but i didn't try every level yet

I've done this as well and the game works fine (as far as I've tested it), but I can't save my game.

Everytime I try to save, it says "save failed".

It's for Lego rock raiders but you can download the D3DRM

 

and it's for lunch lot of old game  (lego island 1 and 2 , lego racer ...)

Not all LEGO games need D3DRM. The only ones I know that do need it are Island and Rock Raiders.
Island 2 and Racers definitely do not use it.
