Hello Please make compatibility with Age Of Empires. When you copy a file to a game, bad colors disappear but FPS is slow

narzoul commented 4 years ago

I don't have any FPS issues. Are you using the latest experimental release? Which version of Windows and Age of Empires?

AntonZab commented 4 years ago

Win 7 64 bit. Age of empires v. 0.7.22

AntonZab commented 4 years ago

Yes Latest experemental release. In the past release fps is excellent, but the colors in the menu are different and there is no mouse

I'm not sure if we're talking about the same game. I don't think there was a v0.7.22 of AoE. Even the file version of the trial is already 0.8.69.1002 and product version is 1.0. Official patches are also like 1.0a/b/c.

Please right click on "empires.exe", go to Properties -> Details and copy the following fields here:

Also, what do you use to measure your FPS? Or is it just visibly stuttering? Do you have any issues in the main menus or only in game?

Make sure desktop composition is enabled and there are no compatibility settings applied to the executable file, as those could cause issues also.

Edit: Please attach the DDrawCompat-empires.log file also.
