Issues fixed
Unable to install the game from the disc
- The installer on the disc, does not work on modern windows OS due to it designed for older OS.
Change the installer compatibility mode to an older version of windows |
---|
|
Audio pops during cutscenes on newer Windows OS
- The game's cutscenes rely on an old direct sound dll file for proper sound playback from the CD. When installed on newer OS like Windows 10, this game will use the dll file of the latest version which causes the issue.
Use an old version of Direct Sound |
---|
|
Lower resolution and lack of support for higher resolution monitors
- The game being quite old, was never properly designed to be scaled for higher resolution monitors of today. Some elements of it scale up quite poorly and the overall presentation looks quite bad.
Use dgvoVoodoo and Glide renderer in game |
---|
|
No Music plays in the game
- The game uses CDDA audio to stream in music as you play the game with the CD inserted and modern windows do not support this properly.
There are two methods to fix this |
---|
Method 1
Method 2
|
Issues Unresolved
EAX 3d audio is not available in newer version of windows after Vista
- There's a fix that enables 3d sound, but it breaks the audio in cutscenes completely.
Use Creative ALchemy on any sound card other than Creative ones |
---|
|
Music in the ingame levels do not repeat after playing once
There's currently no way to fix this and the issue seems to occur only on modern OS like Win 10 |
