![]() I know times are tough and sticking to what you have and know is comfortable, but consider moving on as I genuinely believe you will really notice the difference in performance. Surely a better experience from long unsupported Windows XP! If that's not your cup of tea or preferred hot beverage, you could also try an easy Linux distribution such as Linux Mint. Windows 10 is essentially free at this point (setup will nag you once about product key which you can ignore and from then on the system will warn you but never actually lock you out) and you can buy product keys for like 10-15EURO/USD from third parties. On another note, a simple AM4 Athlon 3000G or Ryzen 3200G with a cheap motherboard, 2 sticks of RAM, integrated graphics and a decent SSD will obliterate your current system while being relatively inexpensive. I remember playing the game on similar hardware at the time and it was fine. Use an older driver version and try the compatible tweaks mentioned in that PCGaming Wiki entry, especially the ddraw.dll one. You should be able to get the game working on this type of hardware and OS. Important tip: NEVER change the ScanDisk config setting for "Validate long filenames"! It will cause it to rename every single file in the system to its DOS 8.3 counterpart! Reply 6 of 22, by Jorpho I'm not even sure all the parts are together. Windows got screwed up and I never re-installed it. I really don't like having to tinker with stuff to get everything working. I've thought about building a system, but to be honest, I don't know much about selecting components, how to pick a good motherboard, which CPUs are best, etc. With a new system (well, new to me), I'd still have this one as a backup. I know I could probably install Windows 7 on this system, but I don't have Windows 7 and I'm extremely reluctant to nuke a system that works and start over from scratch. I know people that have it and it's always giving them trouble with changing things, downloading tons of crap that they don't want, etc. I'd like to get a newer/faster system, but I don't have a lot of money and I really dislike Windows 10 with its spyware and forced updates. Yes, I know it's no longer supported and it's considered ancient by today's standards. The biggest limiting factor is that I still have Windows XP. I have a 2.4ghz Core-2-Duo, 4GB RAM, Nvidia GT 430 graphics card, Realtek onboard audio. What kind of hardware do you have Rekrul? ![]() I was hoping that using a wrapper would all bypass the problems I have with Direct3D.Īnyone know what I'm doing wrong and why the wrapper doesn't create any additional options in the Advanced settings? I also tried copying all the various DLL files from Nglide to the directory and that didn't work either. I've always just copied the DLL file to the game's directory and that's worked for other games. I did not install the Glide wrappers as I had a problem with that in the past. Jedi Knight was installed from a full, retail CD, not a digital copy. No additional options show up in the Advanced screen. I copied Nglide's Glide2x.dll to the game's directory, and started it with the -displayconfig parameter, but when I click the Advanced button, the wrapper isn't listed. Just now, I got the idea to see if I could use a Glide wrapper. As soon as I enable hardware mode, the graphics are completely scrambled. I tried every patch I could find (that worked on my old system) and nothing worked. A while back, I installed Jedi Knight and was completely unable to get hardware acceleration to work.
