Issues unresolved
3D sound on modern systems
3D sound is unsupported on modern systems. As the in-game implementation is quite buggy and causes crashes even on systems with 3D sound support, the feature has been removed from the GOG and Steam versions.
Issues fixed
Couldn't load renderer (AMD)
Install DirectX[citation needed] |
---|
Install the DirectX End-User Runtimes. |
Couldn't load renderer
Install nGlide[citation needed] |
---|
Install the nGlide wrapper. Many users report this as an inferior solution to updated native drivers or DirectX, but if for whatever reason OpenGL doesn't work, this is an option. |
Low frame rate / stuttering
Create Config.ini[5] |
