Do you have a savegame for that location?

Good afternoon. Yes, I can share.

Thanks! The game cannot load them though, it complains that the files are old or corrupt (my save files and yours are exactly the same size).
So, I guess we have a different version of the game. I think I installed an old one back in... sometimes. Should I patch it maybe?

Good afternoon. Yes, you need to install the latest patch 887.

Thx for both of you for suggesting patching. So, I patched the game to 887, could load the savegames this time but I couldn't see any difference compared to native D3D8:

Isn't this problem related to the patch itself? It'd be good to test the same scene with the unpatched version.

It's good that you were able to download the saves. You don't have all the red lasers like I do. This means that in all levels where lasers are used as protection we will not be fully displayed. Can this be fixed?
Can you also please add dgVoodoo in the General Output tab of the DirectX9c API for selection? The old games worked mostly DirectX9c. Or would that do nothing?

European version.
Patch 887 US

This update adds frame rate improvements, a fix for the security camera LED lag, and a fix for the character shadow glitch on GeForce. Note that the patch is not save-game compatible with the original game.

No, I don't think I can fix it. Since it's not a wrapper bug but very much like something caused by the patch, the game code itself should be fixed.

The output API list contains API's that older ones are wrapped to. Even DX9.0c is wrapped to either D3D11 or 12. DX9 cannot be an output API.

I see, thank you for the quick response. Can the problems with this game be fixed?

Ok, I'll answer when I check it out.
