Issues fixed

Game always runs windowed (Windows 8)

On Windows 8 the game may ignore resolution choices, always running in windowed mode. Windows 7 compatibility mode fixes this.

Set Windows 7 compatibility mode^{[citation needed]}

Right-click the game's shortcut (or Enclave.exe) and choose Properties.
On the Compatibility tab, choose Run this program in compatibility mode for.
Choose Windows 7 from the list.
Click OK to apply your changes. The game will now run in fullscreen mode correctly.

The desktop may be briefly shown when launching the game but it will go to fullscreen afterwards.

Issues with mouse movement, drinking potions, and movement stutter

Use 125hz mouse polling rate^{[citation needed]}
Setting the mouse polling rate to 125hz may alleviate various issues with mouse movement affecting gameplay. If your mouse does not have adjustable polling rate and you still experience problems, using a different/older mouse may work.

Overexposed light effect when using torch

Use dgVoodoo^[9]
Download and extract dgVoodoo. Open the `MS` folder and copy the contents to the installation folder. Run `dgVoodooCpl.exe`. Click on "Add" and choose the installation folder. Go to the DirectX tab. Disable "dgVoodoo Watermark" and click OK.
