Sometimes games don't work without being installed properly. This might be fixable by copying the games' registry entries. Also the GOG version comes with a wrapper (win32.dll) for the CD music that is perhaps not compatible with Win 98. Try deleting that file and then copy winmm.dll from the …

You can use msconfig to launch Windows in diagnostic mode with only basic processes and services running.

I don't think so. Edit:

Yep, 2.52 works flawlessly. Tried switching to "D3DCompiler only" in WIP60_1 but it didn't help. Edit: I don't have any compatibility options selected in Windows 10 on any of the *.exe files in the Moto Racer 1 folder. Doesn't launch for me without 16 bit compat mode.

There's a game launcher included that already applies most of these parameters. Direct3d works after selecting a different videocard but the game looks even more broken than before, the 3D screen is almost completely white. However this can be fixed for some reason by switching to 16/9 mode. Then …

Did you try this with "depth 16" instead of " depth 8" already? https://wiki.winehq.org/FAQ#The_application_I … ave_millions.21 Seems to be equivalent to Reduced Color Mode.

The game is currently on sale for ~1€ on GOG so I took a look at the exe. It uses GDI to access the desktop resolution but I couldn't find anything for the color depth there. So I downloaded the newest WIP and was able to get into the game just fine (should probably have tried that first :lol: ), …

The only thing mentioned that might have helped was WindowedAttributes = Borderless, FullscreenSize but alas it changed nothing. MS ACT is suggested by one person with the change of "simple window" applied... likely it already had such changes to it but the setting was tested anyways... just in …

Batman Arkham Origins Blackgate Deluxe and Vanquish refuse to boot. Steam says they're running then after 5 seconds it closes. Arkham Asylum looks fantastic now btw. Thanks :) Error message for Batman Arkham Origins Blackgate Deluxe is "Direct3DCreate9Ex not found in Renderer_Win32Steam_Release.dll …

In newer versions of dgvoodoo you can edit the file with notepad, older versions are encrypted. Can't check right now, you might need a WIP.

The Force Unleashed works but I had to bypass the launcher first. Would it be possible to add an option to dgVoodoo to let certain exes in a directory ignore the wrapper dlls and use "passthru to real DirectX" mode instead? Some games on Steam have been mangled to the point that they can only be run …

The game used to have issues on Windows 7 (/Vista?) and could only be launched with the "-windowgui" command line switch. This puts the menu and the cutscenes inside a 640x480 window that doesn't rely on ddraw (and also does not utilize dgVoodoo if you want to use it.) When the game was released on …

The exe has been hex edited to add the new resolutions. The launcher just writes to the registry so that the game uses the right resolution.
