Yep using Windows 10 on a laptop.
Biggest issue is the game crashing as soon as I get in the server. Thats one hurdle. Metaservers have been updated to accommodate thr server.
Also finding a resolution that works.
I just want to find an old PC. Through a voodoo card in it and take a long ride down memory lane lol

Voss, I have Win 10 on a 7 year old Toshiba laptop. I've gotten the game to run well on it, but I haven't found a glide wrapper that works real well. I thought the Nglide wrapper (mentioned elsewhere here) was the answer, but I keep getting psychedelic ground and plane panels after a couple minutes, no matter what I do, so I've declared it a fail. To be honest I've become quite used to Direct Draw for both SP and on servers. I know you probably didn't want to hear that, but it's a reality for maybe anything but the absolute best laptops. I'm not sure what else I can do to help you.
Is there a computer store near you that sells used stuff? They may be able to help if you describe what you need it for. Find a voodoo card on ebay or Craigslist.

Is there a free download of the game or do I need to buy it from the gog.com site?
