Issues fixed
Low FPS on modern versions of Windows
- Improves performance
- DirectDraw emulation is broken in Windows 8 and later
Use a DirectDraw wrapper[1][2]
|
- Download the experimental version of the DirectDrawCompat wrapper
- Extract the contents from the
.zip file into the game's installation folder <path-to-game>
Notes
- Alternatively, a normal DirectX wrapper can be used for the same effect.
|
Alternative workaround for low FPS
There are three ways of fixing the problem:
- Use the DirectDraw/DirectX wrapper method mentioned above previously.
- Disable hardware acceleration if fullscreen is on.
- Play the game in a window. Hardware acceleration works fine while the game is windowed.
