Greetings,

I registered so I could find out if there is a solution for this problem: Populous: The Beginning crashes with fast memory access turned on. The game works if I turn it off, but alot of the textures become white (I heard it's a problem with AMD GPUs).

I was wondering if it's possible to make the game work with fast memory access.

Thanks in advance.

AMD GPUs have problem with the D3D11 renderer of dgVoodoo2 primarily instead of the one you mentioned. Consider changing the render device to D3D12 in dgvoodoo2cpl

Yes, that solved it! Tried various combinations but that was the issue.
