Colour problems on Vista/7
- Close the
explorer
process in the Task Manager before starting Road Rash, then restart it after playing. A batch file can be used to automate the process. - Alternatively, use the cnc-ddraw renderer. If the game is cropped off and not filling the entire screen, try an older build of cnc-ddraw, like 1.4.1.0.
MIDI music hangs post-race
Even when set to GS Wavetable Synth, if CoolSoft MIDIMapper is installed, it causes this issue. May not be the only cause.
