Essential improvements
Longbow Gold for Windows Fixes
Both of these methods are similar, but have different installation methods. GoldFXA and GoldFX are not interchangeable and are exclusive to their separate versions.
- Applying the GoldFX(A) patch will render the A variant of the Longbow unplayable, making only the AH-64D usable.
Longbow Gold for DOS in DOSBox
Running the game in DOSBox will look worse and possibly perform worse but work on all operating systems.
