Can't Get Gun To Run

[Majorita]

I been trying about an hour now, got the widescreen fix, nothing much seemed to happen when I got that.

Tried compatibility mode with disable visual themes, desktop composition, DPI scaling, XP pack 2... nothing.

Tried a no-CD crack, nothing.

Not really sure what else to do here, there's very little information on this game. I'm running Win7 x64.

This game runs perfectly fine for me.. with widescreen fix and without compatibility mode at all. I'm using Windows 10 64-bit Build 1903 (May 2019).

Maybe the problem is your OS, Windows 7 pretty outdated anyway.

... No comment.

Anyway, I got it to run by doing... literally nothing. I just reinstalled it. It doesn't need fixes or patches or whatever.

I think he's either talking about the frame cap or the texture quality

I know this is late, but I played this game on the Xbox 360 and the textures looked a lot better than on PC, and I was hoping if there's any graphical fix for it.

Sadly no, there isn't much out there to mod or patch this game. Most of it for stuff like the widescreen fix is linked here: https://www.pcgamingwiki.com/wiki/Gun

There is also a recent ReShade profile someone uploaded, that improves lighting a little bit here: https://www.nexusmods.com/gun/mods/1

The frame rate is fixed at 30 FPS, but it runs a smooth 30 FPS pace.

Considering when this game released, Original Xbox was still the norm, as well as games locking to 30 on PC. Although not all parts of it have aged well - in it's day it was stunning and top notch. Still a great game if you can get past its aged shortcomings.

I played it on Xbox and Xbox 360 back in the day, and I've recently gone back to play the PC version. The 360 version is also a fantastic port of this game.

Yeah it looked really amazing on the 360, then I bought it for PC hoping it would look better but it was a downgrade and somewhat a bad PC port D;

Same here. I remember I actually bought the 360 VGA cable to hook it up to my PC monitor to compare the two versions back then. 360 port was superior in a few ways.
