i've tried for so long to get the PC version of this game to work but never found a solution to it, i see runs of it on the leaderboard so are there any patches available or a certain method i have to use to get it running ?
You need to be more specific. Detail exactly what your problem is and we can go from there. If you want you can add me on discord for some real time troubleshooting.
I can get it to work in fullscreen (takes forever to load up). Is it possible to run it in window mode? like with dxwnd or something?
for me, dxwnd stopped working for some reason. That's why I personally use D3DWindower now. Just make sure you run as admin.
I did my runs in fullscreen. It hogged my inputs so I couldn't even use livesplit. I set a delay on my timer, opened the game, and ran it without the ability to tab off or split or anything. My setup is like a 1/10 but at least it's working. I also can't set enter or escape to a controller, so I lose a bunch of time reaching for my keyboard at the end of levels or at dialogue.
@Jumpyluff Everytime a FMV is played my monitors goes apeshit, switching to 1080p and then back to the games resolution. Your runs doesnt seem to have this issue. Did you find a fix for it or did it never happen for you?
It never happened to me. I had to run in '95 compatibility mode and i choose hardware acceleration on bootup. That's when I get the resolution changes, but never during the run.
my problem is i can't even get the game to run, when i launch the exe it just says "insert Bugs Life CD" even though it is inserted :(
You need to make certain that the Bug's Life CD is on Drive (D:) You can change the drive letter of your disc drive https://www.computerhope.com/issues/ch000038.htm
