Hi,

Sadly, I'm not having the same success as others on this

  1. My GFX - Nvidia Strix GTX980
  2. Editing dsound.ini with DDrawCompat = 0 - Makes the crash go away, but, same as before, no menu text
  3. Editing dsound.ini with DDrawCompat = 1 - Produces this error log:

Hello Tony,

Try disabling Compatibility mode settings. See here for how it should look:

Hiya,

Thanks for the quick reply, sadly, that’s not made a difference, dsound-gangsters.log reads the same output.

I must be missing something if it works for some and not others, but have no clue as to what that maybe.

Hello Tony, Check out the post here. rhaak said he solved the issue by modifying the Nvidia settings and disabling G-Sync. You might want to try disabling G-Sync and Vsync to see if either of these help. I suspect you may be having an issue with an Nvidia setting also.

elishacloud commented 6 years ago

Closing issue for now. If you can still reproduce this with G-Sync and Vsync disabled you can reopen it.
