Hi, BEEN_Nath_58 , I'll continue to mess about with the expert settings and see if I can get it working properly. It's nearly there, just missing the in-game speech which seems to be caused by the tweak: slowdown exceptions. If I remove it the speech returns, but then the game is back to being too …

Hi, BEEN_Nath_58. The MechWarrior 2 Mercenaries 3D (HW) profile nearly works, speed is now fixed, but for some reason, the speech is now missing and I also get this error when I die or exit a mission (See below). The MechWarrior 2 31st Century Combat Titanium Edition profile still crashes (Black …

Hi, BEEN_Nath_58, the latest profile (mercsd3d1080p) I can't get to work as it crashes when starting a mission. The profile I uploaded below works, but it's still running too fast. Thanks! For the Mercenaries, please reinstall the game, install the .sdb by executing the .bat file and use the given …

Looks like the ATI X1800 demos don't work on my Nvidia hardware. They fail on loading shaders or something. It runs fine on the AMD RX 500 series though. Also Design Garage hasn't run, probably the drivers don't support Optix Ray Tracing anymore, neither did I ever use it.

I have not been able to run the Geforce 400 demo "Design Garage". It crashes during the loading procedure. I am using a Nvidia GTX 1050Ti GPU, what should I do to run it?

To tell you the truth, I'm very moronic with computers (and overall) and don't know the first step of coding, confuguring, editing a program, etc. I boughted the 98SE PC pre-bult off ebay only know how to detach and reattach parts of computers like there GPU, CPU, and sound card and installing …

Done! Here's the profiles for Pentium Ed and Merc D3D at 1080p. Note that in PE, the menu after exiting mission will get stuck to a corner because I couldn't stretch the screen, it is possible to stretch the menus as well, but we will have to talk on it first. I uploaded the profile for MercsD3D as …

Hard pass and misunderstanding. I recently bought a Windows 98SE gaming rig to play Win 95 and 98 games on period correct hardware, not to have it as a dust collector. 😑 You are not alone. Old Ubisoft games were such, so you'll expect problems. You can switch things one by one with the resources …

Speed Busters is another game to add to the pile of incompatible Windows 95 games then....... Game is running fast doesn't mean it is incompatible. That's a reason why wrappers exist, to replace an non-working FPS cap supplied by new DDraw. dgVoodoo2, DxWnd, ddwrapper can cap the frame rate and …

I tried the running the game on my Windows 10 and it starts up without crashing (only without audio input), but the game runs too fast thus, the CPU is the culprit. Guess I'll have to resort to drowngrading my CPU on my 98SE. I'd rather play old games running and funtioning at 30fps and under then …

Hello BEEN_Nath_58, 1080p would be great. :) I've been messing about with the Enhanced D3D version for the last 4 hours, changing various video settings in DXWind & dgVoodoo 2 with some success. I managed to get the game running a few times, but the game would crash after a minute, but if I used …
