icon_question Vista Error?

Hey all. I love the original Soldier of Fortune, but haven't played it since I've went to Windows Vista. I've tried everything I can think of and can't get it to run without a dozen texture errors and bugs.

Anyone know a fix or a Windows 95 emulator or something that can get this game to run? I'd love to play this game again.

Thumbs up Re: Vista Error?

See my post here:
Is it possible for SOF 1 to work with the Vista OS?

That should fix your problem

Thanks for your reply. Unfortunatly thats not where my problem lies. I can run the game, its just that all textures will be all messed up. For example, walls will be completly matte white and stuff. Any idea how to fix that?

It is a graphic error but if you have a HD card above 3000 they have openGL errors currently and you will get high fps and crappy walls...

Be patient with whatever card make you have or complain to them ;D
I had similar problem, it includes having weird and dodgy menus, black, pink, red skins... either downgrade your card or wait for upgrade
I cant promise any versions below the drivers you have will fix the problem.

Try this.

Custom Graphic Drivers, they might have solved this problem already.
Give them a try, im currently running on HD 2600, DNA 8.12 and my card runs smooth.
