Rogue squadron 3d windows 7 64 bit

But getting it running at higher resolutions, and with proper controls, takes a bit of fiddling. Let's go for a trench run.

Until now, the game has never been available as a digital download. Installing it is as easy as usual for GOG. Just run the installer and move on to the next step: getting it working in high resolution.

It's pretty easy to run Rogue Squadron high-res, but there are a few steps involved. Thankfully, nice posters on the GOG forums have already figured out the easiest way to spiff up the game.

First step: download this custom fix with UniWS , a program that helps set custom resolutions in older games. Unzip it and follow the readme, or just keep reading, and I'll go through the steps. Open uniws from the unzipped folder. Click "Find it for me" and it should find your Rogue Squadron install. Now set the resolution you'd like to enable. Keep in mind that Rogue Squadron is a game. As the readme explains, you can force it to play in widescreen, but it can cause some unsightly rendering issues, as some parts of the screen aren't drawn properly.

Next, you're going to need to go to your install folder for Rogue Squadron. EXE", create a shortcut to it, and put it somewhere easy to access, like your desktop. Right click on that shortcut and go to "Properties". Where it reads "Target:", go to the end of the directory name, press the spacebar once, and add "-voodoo3" without the quotation marks. Then hit "Apply". Now when you double-click that shortcut, you should get a menu that has "Hardware Configuration" as an option.

If it's not there, and all you can see is "Install Rogue Squadron", you may need to try launching the game a few more times using your original "ROGUE. EXE" executable s , to get it to recognize that the game is, in fact, installed. Hit accept if it says "If Glide cannot initialize, D3D will be used by default. Finally, you can change the settings for Glide by using the "nGlide Configurator" shortcut. However, take caution when changing these settings. For instance, I tried turning off V-Sync during my troubleshooting process.

While this seemed to be an acceptable setting for going through the menus at first, I soon realized that disabling V-Sync caused the transition screens in the menus and cut-scenes to run incredibly slowly or freeze entirely. While it may help you to get your game running to play around with these settings, be careful that you don't accidentally forget about the settings and have them cause you even more problems later on!

With any luck, you should have a game that's about ready for launch. There are a few more things you can check before starting, however. If you right click on "Rogue Squadron. EXE", and click on the "Compatibility" tab, you'll notice a series of checkboxes.

First and foremost, I'd recommend going to the bottom-most checkbox, labelled "Run this program as an administrator", and turning it on. Most people recommend disabling the other compatibility mode options or leaving them disabled, as is most likely the case , which I'm inclined to agree with Personally, I also disabled Aero and turned off my second monitor during testing, which might be things you want to consider trying as well.

You never know what may be the turning-point with getting these older games to run. You'll have to add the "www. Help threads I used to get the game running: gog. Posted January 26, I followed your guide to the letter, and Until it didn't Installed to the default location via the standard gog installer, moved the game to a simpler, shorter path with no spaces in it, adjusted all the registry entries to account for it, installed the latest nGlide software, ran the hardware setup as administrator , and executed the game as administrator.

I was even able to click on the 'create' a player button Had to use task manager to kill it! I even uninstalled the game, deleted the registry, and reinstalled directly to the simpler path, with the same result. After that process, here is what the Windows registry generated. Checking to see if this is all okay, or if maybe some of those directories should be changed: quote Windows Registry Editor Version 5.

Posted January 27, Still best to use dgVoodoo2 to run it in high resolutions unsupported by the game, or windowed mode, with flawless performance. My antivirus used to flag it but has fixed it since. Anyway, all I needed to do was extract it all then plop the DLL files from dgVoodoo 2's MS folder into the same folder as the game's exe files are located and finally drop dgVoodooCpl.

In the general tab make sure you choose the Centered scaling mode, for some reason forcing or other modes doesn't work in the latest version at the time of writing but Centered somehow makes it so. This could differ in later versions after this post so that's the setting you need to fiddle with in order to get the proper aspect ratio round radar in-game. Or the game might automatically do that perceiving it as the only option. This header needs a fix or an error will be triggered during compilation :.
