Found this patch online, thought I would share. Works great!

No more lag, there are mouse arrow trails on the main menu but nothing can be done about that.

1. Place files in Robin Hood folder
2. Run the installer
3. Game must be run from the shortcut provided

Look here the fix without installing any suspicious crap:

Yes, I finally found it, it really is in Registry.

Computer\HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\AppCompatFlags\Layers

(not really necessary if you only have one user account)
Computer\HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\AppCompatFlags\Layers

Look for:
c:\gog games\robin hood - the legend of sherwood\game.exe

Double click it and paste this:
DWM8And16BitMitigation 8And16BitAggregateBlts HIGHDPIAWARE RUNASADMIN HIGHDPIAWARE

The important one is 8And16BitAggregateBlts, this stops the lag, and you can't set this yourself in Compatibility tab.


This also works for Desperados before the modern system update, without the use of any DDraw wrappers, and it fixes all the problems:
-mouse cursor lag
-slow mission loading time, before 20s, now 7s
-slow gameplay, 1-10 FPS
-black traces on mouse path

and proof that its real solution

Just to update and confirm, the registry fix mentioned by r34p3r85 does indeed work.

I setup a String key who's name was the location of where the game as installed in Steam, and set the key value to what r34p3r85 said.

Started the game, and it worked perfectly. There was no lag, there was no weird corruption on the game menu as the mouse pointer moved.

Thank you kind person!

So I try it and can also confirm that regedit method from r34p3r85 dude works good with Robin Hood steam game on my Win 10 64bit.

Works also for Win 8.1 64bit except if the viewdistance of guards is shown - this brings back the lag :/

I have changed the game's resolution to 1920x1080 with hex editor (tutorial of how to make it is here https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PTXB807T7JA). It works but there is also lots of lags. When I made changes with exe file in Registry game begins to work a little better, but there is another problem: when I move cursor on some active objects like buttons, doors, enemies and etc - game begins to lag for 1-2 sec. But when I do nothink (don't move cursor) - game runs fine. Maybe someone knows how to modify fixing lags method? :) Thank you!

PS. I don't know why but the video doesn't shown here. The name of it is "Robin Hood Legend of Sherwood widescreen test", you can find it on YouTube with instructions about changing resolution in descriptions

[kostyabakay]

Thanks, worked for me. Is there available some new version of the patch?

[Spitfire175]

[Inmost Silence]

To all those who're reporting it works: does even the FOV function cause no lag for you?

[Bittew]
