Hi, I'm just wondering if anyone managed to run MIB with the CNC-DDraw 7.1. It looks like game starts with some intro movies but then there is only black screen instead of menu, it crash few second after that.

This game got a bunch of different problems - Will try to fix them, but it will take some time

Thanks for the quick reply. I noticed it's a challenge to get it running properly on a modern system. I managed to with dgVoodoo but it would be nice to use shaders from your CNC-DDRAW. Not a priority of course and huge kudo for the great work you do to make old games look good again!

It seems to work with just a tweaked ddraw.ini (hook=2) - But that setting is known to cause issues on some drivers. You will have to check if it work on your end. Here's the latest build:

Will try to get it fully working later

With the beta release and suggested ddraw.ini tweak game works. I haven't played long but it looks promising! The only thing I noticed is that intro movies are not stretched to the full screen (4:3 ratio) and played in the left top corner. My desktop resolution is 3440x1440, game itself is full screen, I presume it will be 1920x1440 (4:3) in my case.
