: Beat the game



God-tier game overall. The last boss was annoying because of the gimmick and took me way longer than it probably should have. I assume the sequel is gonna explain a little more what the gently caress is going on, based on the post-credits scene it looks like it'll be epic

You need the 3Dfx splash dlls for Glide if you want 3Dfx splash screen or watermark (shameless plug) through dgVoodoo.
3DfxSplashDlls.zip 

You may also need D3DRM.dll (Direct3D Retained mode) for some games and demos.
It's not part of the OS since Windows Vista.
D3DRM.zip 

You may also need the external D3D compiler dll for Glide if you are not on Windows 10 and using a dgVoodoo version earlier than 2.73

lol jesus yeah that explanation sucks

download that zip, go into the /MS/x86 folder, and copy all four .dll files to the game directory, that should be it

im about to hex edit the game so i can have widescreen instead of stretched 4:3, and then i am going to murder larry

I used the Steam version with that GOG exe I linked earlier and the “-w” launch option for windowed mode and it runs fine, albeit in 4:3. I’m too lazy to fiddle around with it further.

I edited the .conf file directly and there were two separate watermark settings. I set them both to false and the watermark is gone for me. good luck

So far I have clobbered the first woman I tried to save with a street light, sending her up into a fire escape and destroying it, and then thrown a car hitting the second one. My prestige ain't doing well. This game is fun so far, looking forward to playing more

suddenly realising you have to actually model and texture the custom character and its not moving a bunch of sliders, yeah i'll be right lol

after all this setup, not really feeling this game off the bat. i'll give it a bit more of a run, but unless it really mixes up the formula its not for me and ill have to kill larry unfortunately

loving hell, I picked something that I specifically remember not making you do a bunch of PC gamer bullshit to run well when I played it years ago, wonder if it's a modern Windows issue. Probably should have tested it myself before picking it, apologies!

If enough people are having issues that nobody can be bothered setting it up I'm happy to forfeit my pick and go into the shame cave rather than leave it on two weeks with a game only three people can play, I'll leave that decision to Sub

Definitely more fiddling than I intended to force on anyone who doesn't share my early 00s PC gamer brain disease, but guess that's not too bad now. I will not bother making a widescreen patch and will just play it windowed unless that causes all the cutscenes to be upside down or deletes the save button or something
