Swat 4 on Windows 10?
I know Swat 4 isn't on Steam, I'm just asking here.

Will Swat 4 run on Windows 10?

I tested it. Don't ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ do it man. I don't know what was wrong with it, but windows 10 utterly prevented me from installing my expansion pack to the game. SWAT 4 itself was installed and played fine but it kept refusing to update its patches, claiming it was the wrong language when it totally was not. So this meant i couldn't install my expansion pack. The second i reverted back to windows 7, it worked perfectly. Windows 10 may be great in the future, but there's way too many bugs and unpredictable ♥♥♥♥ about it. It wouldn't even let me delete my old swat 4 files for starters..

I was just trying to help someone who went through my same dilemma. It does? I'm surprised, because it sure as hell didn't for me. Side note, do you play multiplayer? I can't find any decent servers that don't have a terrible ping, at least for Co op

Hi there, friend and myself installed it lately on Win 10 64 bit and it works just fine. SWAT 4 AND Stetchkov. The message that your graphics card doesnt support it...just ignore that one :-) program seems to be unable to detect "newer" cards. then go for the \SWAT 4\Content\System and open Swat4.ini (Stetchkov) oder default.ini (SWAT4) and change the FullscreenViewportX=1440
FullscreenViewportY=900
to your actuals resolution. except for 2560x1600 and 1024x576 almost all should be supported...but you`ll see that early enough :-)

Counter-Question: Did anyone manage to get the gane running in coop with Stetchkov? SWAT4 itself goes fine, but the Addon refuses any cooperation

Played fine on Windows 10, GOG Version of the game, no idea about Steam release
My physicals take a little bit of hinky fiddling but run fine after. I kind of miss playing that as a lan game.

I mean you still can, although it requires people having the same version which some don't really. I joined a game back a while ago by connecting to the server ip in this server list:

I still play it. Don’t know for vanilla, but every popular mods under the sun runs flawless.

Btw, I recommend you check out BTLA (Back to Los Angeles)
