? As far as i know using D3D9 instead of older ones doesn't make a difference in AA2 (the game was built under 8.1 i believe).

Well if you run AA on Linux or Mac it actually runs on OpenGL. But that version was ported by a very skilled guy that ported a whole lot of other games to linux.

I also tried getting OpenGL to run on Windows as it might run better than DX8. No luck though.

Unreal Engine isn't very smart and some texture's that work under DX8 don't work under OpenGL. Maybe one day when I become a better coder I can fix this :)
