Game is rather problematic (Crash Issues)

[Ashcroft]

Heya people, im not sure if im the only one affected, but this game crashed...alot, it seems to have some issues with graphics, when initially starting the game, anything above 1024x786 will crash the game if your using a D3D renderer. switching in game seems to be no issue, but it will crash upon exiting the game

This issue is happening with an Nvidia Card

aside from the crashes, the game also flashes the Window its being run in, even though its run in full screen mode, its enough to put me off a bit personally.

if anyone has any suggestions on how to remedy those issues, feel free to let me know, while i also browse the net for solutions.

yup, crashes frequently here too...

Finally got into the first level, killed the first enemy, then crashed again. Hope there's more that can be done. Resolution switching only seems to have done so much.

i got the game on gog and it crashes all the time i dont think theres much we can do about it

[GenaTheGamer]

this game crashed with my voodoo 2. I was hoping it would be better now but it is worse. i doubt there will be any official fix.

i dont think they will patch it because its been like that since the game came out way back when

go to game directory, find BLOOD2.EXE and set win98 compabilty mode,and "run as Admin" ,for me its help perfectly.

This game just doesn't like to run. If i fool around with different settings, and resolutions it might run, but then crash. But it wont run again, even though the settings never changed. If it wasn't for the time it would take and the fact it's to play 1 game i would dual boot XP. Im supprised with the community backing on GOG no one has been able to fix this.

So many probs for people with this game after many tests i now find a good way this game work stable for me.

I do this:
Go into your game folder D:\Steam\SteamApps\common\Blood II
Set the game launcher on compatibility mode windows98/me (BLOOD2,exe)
@game launcher mark display and set your gpu card and D3D Renderer max resolution i can use are (1280x1024 game crashes) (1280x960 work stable) this works fine for me with max detail.
I played 1 hour with some breaks loading and save games close and run again game... working great now i can after years play this great game.

Does this work as a windows 7 fix?

EDIT: I get a "no renders found, this problem is usually due to directx 6 not being properly installed. Please varify that directx 6 and re run the installer if necessary" .....

^^^Any reason why this is happeneing and or a fix for this?
