Running in Windows 7+

Take ownership of <path-to-game>[5]
Install the game patch 1.0.0.2 to potentially fix the bug of the game not running. This works on the CD-ROM version.

Gameplay issues

Problems may happen in-game. The problems are, but aren't limited to: reduced jump height, not being able to travel to the next area, and AI not being able to jump. If these problems happen, you're likely playing the game at a frame rate higher than 60 FPS.[citation needed]

Lock the max frame rate of the game to 60 FPS within your graphics card's control panel.

Notes

  1. 1.0 1.1 When running this game without elevated privileges (Run as administrator option), write operations against a location below %PROGRAMFILES%, %PROGRAMDATA%, or %WINDIR% might be redirected to %LOCALAPPDATA%\VirtualStore on Windows Vista and later (more details).
  2. Bumpmapping setting does not work properly on modern hardware, resulting in characters being shaded with improper lighting.
  3. This game was developed alongside Episode III and released over a month before the movie, so TT Games did not have access to the soundtrack in time for release. They were able to fix this for the compilation game, but only did so for the gameplay background music and not the cutscenes.
