I've seen this websites says Peixoto's patch is an essential patch for a bunch of games but there's no instructions whatsoever on how to actually install or use it.
The download page and the zip file itself contain no instructions, either, and the creator seems to require payment for any kind of "support". Why on earth anyone would pay money to find out how to use a patch before they can even know if it works well is beyond me.
Can someone please clarify how to actually install Peixoto's patch?
This program contains a collection of patches for old windows games, increasing their compatibility with newer windows versions, fixing bugs, glitches, poor frame rates and also improving the games with things like forced resolution, widescreen and modding tools
It is also possible to create your own patches with the program's user interface which allows you to create new game profiles and cofigure several tweaks for each profile
More detailed documentation can be viewed clicking on Peixoto.bat - it launches program\qt\HelpQt.exe which is simply autohotkey (https://autohotkey.com) and runs the script program\qt\HelpQt.ahk which you can inspect with any text editor
