- Patch 1.08: https://www.gamepressure.com/download.asp?ID=6697
- Fan Patch 1.14: http://www.imperiumgalactica2.hu/kell/114.exe
- The fan patch creates a Windows NT-compatible executable file called
ig2nt.exe
. This should be the target of any shortcuts.
Running on Modern Systems
This game runs well with dgVoodoo 2.55.4 in 1080p resolution with anti-aliasing. You must set these in dgVoodoo and leave the game's resolution on 1024x768. This method avoids the black video bug.

Issues unresolved
Blank cutscenes
- Many cinematics in the campaigns play only the sound (most notably the introductions).
Multiplayer compatibility
- Multiplayer. But the guide linked earlier mentions it's possible if you ensure windows firewall is disabled. Apparently multiplayer will work with any of the four disks.
Issues fixed
Game crashes on non-4:3 resolutions
- The game will crash on certain screens (fleet info, design, scenario select, etc.) if the display aspect ratio isn't 4:3 in the
ig2.ini
file.
Modify ig2.ini[citation needed] |

Stutter on multi-core systems
Modify the game's shortcut target[citation needed] |

Game hangs on loading campagin
- The game sometimes hangs if it needs to change disks to load a specific campaign.
Insert the correct game disc before selecting a campaign[citation needed] |
