- It's impossible to restore the game after minimizing. To fix it install dgVoodoo as Glide, choose 3DFX in the game launcher, and in dgVooodoo Control Panel>Glide, check "Force inactive app state" and force your resolution. Press RBM>Show all sections of the configuration and go to GeneralExt>Fake to force full screen on every launch. Using Glide you can uncap FPS when V-Sync is disabled in game options.
