Re: Is Extreme-G 2 the first commercial game to use dgVoodoo?

Well, I guess that's one mystery solved and now another mystery... how am I even going to beable to fix every case issue myself if it's "timeGetTime()" causing it.

I can't low-level code to save my life, and Wine doesn't seem to want to make use of "stub DLL's" either. Atleast, everytime I have tried such DLL's don't ever seem to get picked up at all. (Which causes a unrelated problem of the CD Audio replacement player not actually existing in GOG re-releases)

You have to set DLL load order for DLL in question to native,builtin.

Also, settings on the Libraries tab apply to whatever is selected on the Applications tab.

Hello there, saw the thread, and just changed my "GDIStretcher" tool into a timeGetTime patcher tool. If you'd like to see how to make a tool that does this, you can read the source code. I haven't tested this at all, and have no idea if it actually works or not.
The only change it makes to timeGetTime is that it captures the first call, and makes that the zero point. So all subsequent calls will first subtract the first result, thus you should need to run the program itself for 3 days instead of Windows before seeing the negative effects.

Source code: https://github.com/Dwedit/GDIStretcher/tree/t … GetTime-patcher

You forgot something:

1DWORD WINAPI timeGetTime_Replacement()
2{
3    if (!timeInitialized)
4    {
5        timeZero = timeGetTime_OLD();
6        timeInitialized = true;
7    }
8    return timeGetTime_OLD() - timeZero;
9}

Thanks, previous post edited and fixed.
