#Jagged alliance 2 gold windowed mode full#

I would like to add that i faced the same problem as a win10 user and seems that imageCFG have somehow reduced the freezes by a lot but not completely. First of all congratulations for the great work on this game. Lastly, don't forget to change the paths to your actual JA2 1.13 install. It will automatically hook to ja2.exe as long as it's open while you launch it. To use that file you have to import it into DXWnd first.

I find it works better when I want to play in windowed mode to still set the game to run in full screen and make it windowed through DXWnd instead. Set the game to run at full screen in ja2.ini or adjust however you like. Using DXWnd prevents the game from locking up when you tab out for too long, increases performance, removes the need for switching the entire desktop to 16 bit mode on Windows 7 and under, and seems to desync the audio and video for the Sirtech logo video and causes it to lag for some reason (but all other movies played are fine). You might have to tweak these settings depending on your system. What helped me a ton was running this on DXWnd. If you want to use mods that require release 7609 you should use Sevenfm's experimental exe. If you want to try the 'real' latest version you should look here. That's only the latest stable which is very old. With 'latest version + patch' you probably mean the official release 7609. The other steps however are required as they set the game to run in 16 bit color depth and compatibility mode. Actually I'd advise not to use them because they cause a garbled air view on the map screen. In my opinion you don't really need the dll files from the archive. Please read the Readme file that is contained within. The JA2 1.13 installation has a docs folder with information on Windows 8/10 compatibility fixes.
