How can I play Tonic Trouble on Win7
I have 2 versions. Special and normal. On special my right view is staying black and there is no sound. The normal version crashes after the first level in the loading screen.
Can someone help me?

Re: How can I play Tonic Trouble on Win7
Have you tried Compatibility Mode? What graphics card/GPU are you using?

Re: How can I play Tonic Trouble on Win7
Shame on Ubi? It's not their fault that the game doesn't work on newer OSes, which made changes they couldn't possibly anticipate.
Anyway, I don't have either version of Tonic Trouble, so I'm afraid I can't give you much advice. But Edd's tutorial sounds like it might work on the normal version too. Maybe give it a try? Although if it's crashing, maybe not…
Also, please don't double post. If you have something to add to your last message, please use the edit button. Also, if you decide to quote someone when you're already typing your message, you can scroll down and see the last twenty or so messages from the topic, and quote them from there.

Re: How can I play Tonic Trouble on Win7
Edd i tried your fix and it looks like the application SetUpTT.exe got the driver as dgvoodoo dx wrapper. My last problem is now to start the game :/

Re: How can I play Tonic Trouble on Win7
To clarify, by "double post" I mean posting again when no-one else has replied. Please don't do it again. There's an "edit" button on your post, it should be the left-most one, near the quote button.
Anyway, when you say you can't start the game, do you mean it's crashing again?

Re: How can I play Tonic Trouble on Win7
Hmm. I know I said this already, but have you tried Compatibility Mode (with Win98 maybe)?

Re: How can I play Tonic Trouble on Win7
Tried every OS available there. On my laptop it wont save the game. My LT got Win XP only in comp mode with 98 or 95 it will save
Re: How can I play Tonic Trouble on Win7
Since you are talking about the N64 version, how about using an N64 emulator like Project64. If you can find a ROM for Tonic Trouble then you can just emulate it.
Anyone who wants to play the Special Edition should use dgVoodoo instead.

Re: How can I play Tonic Trouble on Win7
Well I play it currently on an Emulator but the levels are cut short, the music is not the same and and and. So many things I dont like about this console port. Really no other option ?Edd wrote:Since you are talking about the N64 version, how about using an N64 emulator like Project64. If you can find a ROM for Tonic Trouble then you can just emulate it.

Re: How can I play Tonic Trouble on Win7
Well, I guess you could do something like installing Windows XP or something older in a Virtual Machine. But that's awkward.
If you were feeling adventurous you could install Linux and try to play it with Wine, but that's not really for the faint of heart either.
Tbh I kind of do agree with your "Shame on Ubi", because they didn't put the game on GOG. That makes it harder for people like me to get their hands on it, as well as allowing compatibility problems to fester that could probably be fixed quickly if someone with a lot of know-how spent some time on it.

No idea. They probably just forgot it existed!
