Go here,

https://www.dropbox.com/s/hqzb2y7t3kfpueg/Manhunt%20Fix.zip?dl=0

download the ZIP and drag the contents called "link.exe, Manhunt Fix.bat, mspdb80.dll, patchrun.bat" into your Manhunt folder in your Steam game files.

Install

Once the "link.exe, Manhunt Fix.bat, mspdb80.dll, patchrun.bat" is in the Manhunt folder, run Manhunt Fix.bat and another command prompt will show up, press enter.

Credit for the original patch goes out to AJ Collins, the original patch creator.

For Windows 8+

The game is supposed to use v-sync to cap the framerate to prevent the AI from having issues, but due to the game being DirectX 8, this is broken on anything higher than Windows 7. So, we need to get a wrapper to wrap the calls of the game from DX8 to DX9. I have opted to include a link to the one used by the widescreen fix for the Grand Theft Auto games and Manhunt, but this isn't included in the Manhunt fix. Here is a link to the wrapper: http://reshade.me/d3d8to9
Just drag and drop the file into your Manhunt directory, and this should fix the FPS skyrocketing to 200, causing the AI to mess up, and should be capped at 60. (fixes by ThirteenAG, wrapper by crosire)

Now, try to run Manhunt, and go ahead comment and tell me if this works for you. If it does, make sure rate the guide five stars. If not, leave a comment with the steps you took to install the fixes.

I did all correct, game doesn't run. Steam act like I'm running the game, the avatar turns to green, and after a few seconds, avatar back to blue like game was closed.
