Hello, I'm trying to run KISS Psycho Circus - The Nightmare Child (Windows 10 Pro, 64-bit), and while in-game graphics seem to be working fine, they don't seem right in the intro videos and the main menu (pink/green transparencies).

EDIT: It's worth mentioning, and I forgot to, that it's been patched to the latest version (v1.13, to my knowledge).

I have the latest nGlide installed (1.05), I've also downloaded the latest dgVoodoo wrapper I could find (2.51), and my specs are as follows:

Processor: Intel Core i5-2310 - 2.9 GHz
GPU: Nvidia GeForce GTX 750Ti
6 GB RAM
Windows 10 Pro 64-bit

I'd appreciate any help in advance!

Download, install the Application Compatibility Toolkit part of it. After install open Compatibility Administrator (32-bit). Open System Database, Applications, find KISS Psycho Circus: The Nightmare Child.

Right click all client.exe and psycho.exe in the right pane and click disable. Try running the game again.

I apologize for the delay in the answer, I just get to the computer today.

Thankfully, I did the above and it now seems to be working fine.

Thank you very much for the help! 😀

The problem about the "rainbow colors" video can be also fixed by using this ddraw.dll file : https://github.com/narzoul/DDrawCompat

The videos play correctly and you can select HD resolutions (1920 x 1080)

You can't mix a ddraw wrapper with another.
You've just replaced dgVoodoo2 with ddrawCompat.
