Installing Xidi
Works with Xidi library in DInput8 form, but requires drop Xidi's dinput.dll into the game directory.
  1. Ensure the system is running Windows 10 or 11. Xidi is built to target Windows 10 or 11 and does not support older versions of Windows.
  2. Ensure the Visual C++ Runtime for Visual Studio 2022 is installed. Xidi is linked against this runtime and will not work without it. If running a 64-bit operating system, install both the x86 and the x64 versions of this runtime, otherwise install just the x86 version.
  3. Download the latest release of Xidi from here.
  4. Install one of the forms of Xidi into the same directory as the game executable: <path-to-game>.
  5. Optionally supply configuration settings to Xidi: config.

Issues fixed

Can't access the graphics and controls setup menu

The game, by default, sets up the Start Menu shortcut to go to the setup window as well.
Create a new shortcut[citation needed]
  1. Go to <path-to-game>.
  2. Right click Frogger2.exe and click Create a New Shortcut.
  3. Right click the new shortcut and select Properties on the drop down menu.
  4. In the target for the properties, add -c a the end of the very end of the target.
  5. Click Apply at the bottom of the properties window to save your changes.
Launching the shortcut should now lead you directly to the graphics setup menu.

Game Crashes On Launch

Run the game as an administrator[citation needed]
  1. Right click on <path-to-game>\Frogger2.exe and click Properties.
  2. Click on the Compatibility tab and check the "Compatibility mode" checkbox.
  3. Click Apply, then click OK.

Miscellaneous Graphical Issues

Use dgVoodoo 2[citation needed]
  1. Download dgVoodoo 2.
  2. Extract the x86 DLL files from the "MS" folder and place these files into the installation folder.
  3. Run Frogger 2.
Using dgVoodoo 2 will require Windows 7 or greater and a video card capable of DirectX 10.1 or greater.
