Issues unresolved
Game crashing a lot on Windows 7, 8, 10
- On modern systems the game seems to be crashing a lot more than it used to on older ones. Some of the errors are related to Dsound.dll, but the majority of them seem to be due to access violation.[1]
Issues fixed
Weird colors
Start the game with DxWnd[citation needed] |
---|
Use a DDraw wrapper like Aqrit's ddwrapper or dgVoodoo 2[2] |
