Mirh 103 Share Posted January 24, 2014 But.. it's a 2004 game! I thought it was way older. Anyway there's even another method to limit framerate Here it seems they have fixed the problem Will give a try to as soon as GOG.com staff grant us the game to test it Reply (Quote) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vorob 1 Author Share Posted January 28, 2014 Just a quick note, i've installed Win 8 and i can confirm that old games work perfectly there, no flickering. Reply (Quote) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It would be a nice thing to track down what dlls are creating the problem Reply (Quote) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JPulowski 1 Share Posted January 28, 2014 But.. it's a 2004 game! I thought it was way older. Anyway there's even another method to limit framerate Here it seems they have fixed the problem Will give a try to as soon as GOG.com staff grant us the game to test it Limiting frame-rate won't work. All methods works the same way. The issue is related with in-game clock, the processing speed is very fast. I also took a look at Process Explorer, but couldn't understand exactly which method that user used. Tried Cheat Engine for slowing down the in-game clock. It is not perfect, it just makes everything laggy. I guess GOG.com needs to take a look at it. Reply (Quote) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mirh 103 Share Posted January 28, 2014 Download processmonitor and run it. Exclude all others annoying programs Open the game and when you double click its entries in PM, you'll see a list of loaded .dlls with their relative path Copy .dlls used by the game from the corresponding one in the Windows 8 partition to the game folder until you find the one which creates the problem Reply (Quote) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kylsha 0 Share Posted September 26, 2014 Vorob, if you are still here, I want to know whether this problem is solved or not? I'm having the same issue on my laptop Acer V5 with Nvidia Geforce 750M. Here what I have https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NhNMKIEOd8o&list=UUTp7VKlIwb-mn6gSo8nCyNw Reply (Quote) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vorob 1 Author Share Posted November 7, 2014 You case is different, its simple v-sync bug. Force vsync in drivers. If you are on optimus, force your game to work on nvidia. Reply (Quote) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mirh 103 Share Posted July 17, 2016 http://pcgamingwiki.com/wiki/User_talk:Garrett/Troubleshooting/Windows_10#DirectX_8_games_not_working_with_Nvidia_Optimus_and_Windows_10_4338 I wonder if there might not be some ACT fix somewhere. Or did this perhaps in 2 years get solved? Reply (Quote) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
