Hey guys. I’m trying to get Hitman Contracts to work properly (Windows 10, Ryzen 3 1300X, GTX 1060, 16GB RAM). The game had issues with Direct3D - the FPS would skyrocket anywhere between 300-600 and the game would slow down, and locking the FPS caused microstutter. So I switched the game to use OpenGL instead - in-game works perfectly. But the intro movies are all black (sound only) and loading screens (and cutscenes) flicker EXTREMELY. I have no idea what to do. Hitman 2 which is older works perfectly with OpenGL. Edit: it seems to work nicely with dgVoodoo (so far). Anybody have any experience with Hitman Contracts and dgVoodoo?

I am also facing the same. Help is appreciated.

Thanks in advance,

I can't find any GUI way to switch to OpenGL rendering, so I'm guessing OpenGL isn't actually supported and it being glitchy is to be expected.

Just use the D3D8 render.
