found a way to make it work

take the second dll, the one sangboi posted

what i did :

1- make sure that dll is not on your game dirr when you start the game
2- start the game
3- before the game fully load, copy the dll in the game dir

it should start in a window that you can move...

if someone could make a little script to get rid of the dll, start the game, and copy the dll back in the game this should work...
since my knowledge is very limited in programation... i may try to make a .bat that do the trick...

Rename the d3d8.dll to 1d3d8.dll and make a .bat file at maple dir, with this:

-----
@echo off
start maplestory
ping 127.0.0.1 >null
ren 1d3d8.dll d3d8.dll >null
ping 127.0.0.1 >null
ping 127.0.0.1 >null
ren d3d8.dll 1d3d8.dll >null
exit >null
------

works fine here, dont know if you have a really fast computer :rolleyes:

Want to force a game or application into windowed mode that
doesn't support it through its own interface? Now you can,
to an extent. Results will vary depending on how your DirectX
application was written.

Instructions:

1) Launch dxwnd.exe
2) Right click the application's window pane
3) Select "Add"
4) Use the "..." button to browse for your fullscreened executable
5) Select the DirectX version of your executable if it's known, if
not, leave it set to "Automatic"
6) If your executable runs in 256 (8-bit) colored mode, check
the "Emulate 256 Color Palette" check box
7) Click "OK"
8) Now that you have an entry for your executable, simply double click it
or run the game/application itself. What's neat is as long as dwwnd is
running, it will intercept the launching of the application itself, so
it's not necessary to use dxwnd itself to start your game/application

Good luck.

You have to be a complete idiot to not get this.
