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 uses. Some of the errors are related to Dsound.dll, but majority of them seem to be due 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]

    Both work, although Aqrit's wrapper may sometimes require changing screen (to a map/base etc.)
