Next, while the "Value" box is selected, type a single letter there - the letter "n" - and then press Enter; if you don't press Enter it will not save the "n". Once you've done that, you will have successfully added a DLL override for a single dgVoodoo2 .dll. Repeat this process for every dgVoodoo2 .dll that you copied to the game directory. |

Enter the dgVoodoo2's .dll name (again, just the name without the .dll extension) in that box, then click the "Add" button. Find the newly added .dll in the list of overrides below; once you find the added .dll, select it, click "Edit", after which you'll be prompted to choose the desired "Load order" - choose the "Native" load order. This is the method you should use if you're using something other than Lutris. |
* Once you've added the necessary overrides, you can then launch dgVoodooCpl.exe and tweak the settings to your liking - just make sure that the Config folder/Running instance corresponds to where the game binaries are located and where you've copied dgVoodoo configurator, config file and .dlls before you start making changes to the dgVoodoo2 controlled renderer(s). | * Once you've added the necessary overrides, you can then launch dgVoodooCpl.exe and tweak the settings to your liking - just make sure that the Config folder/Running instance corresponds to where the game binaries are located and where you've copied dgVoodoo configurator, config file and .dlls before you start making changes to the dgVoodoo2 controlled renderer(s). | ||

Issues fixed
Difficulty jumping on modern systems
- When running at high framerates, jumping becomes difficult to impossible.
- This is due to the movement physics being tied to the framerate. The game uses V-sync to limit itself but it is broken on Windows 10.
- The game will crash if in-game anti-aliasing is enabled with this fix.[3]
Limit the framerate to 60 FPS[citation needed] |
---|
Use dgVoodoo 2 to fix V-sync[citation needed] |
---|
|
If you're on Linux and using Lutris you can instead use libstrangle to limit the FPS to 60 instead of forcing VSync through dgVoodoo2; other frontends most likely have similar options that enable them to include prefix commands that are inserted before the regular commands that launch the target executable (for example, PlayOnLinux has an "Command to exec before running the program" option under the "Miscellaneous" tab)[citation needed] |
