I just installed this game on windows 11. When I try to play it the video flickers so that it's hard to see anything. I'm using Win11, NVidia GeForce RTX 3050.
How can I fix this?

The first suggestion for an answer to this problem talked about on this page may be your best bet. Dgvoodoo2 can often be of great help for solving issues such as this. I have downloaded and used dgvoodoo2 before and I have had good results with it thus far.

Thanks, Marian. That's the same link I found too. I think that's your best bet to try first, Melia. Come back and let us know if it worked!

Thanks. I went to the site you mentioned and don't know what to click on. Here's what they have: Downloads
You may also need D3DRM.dll (Direct3D Retained mode) for some games and demos.
It's not part of the OS since Windows Vista.
D3DRM.zip
You need the 3Dfx splash dlls for Glide if you want 3Dfx splash screen or watermark (shameless plug) through dgVoodoo.
3DfxSplashDlls.zip
Latest stable version
A patch version again:
dgVoodoo v2.86.2 - for regular usage (released: 2025.05.11)
dgVoodoo v2.86.2 (spec release with Debug Layer) - for API tracing (re-released: 2025.05.11)
And what app do I use to open the .dll file?
Never mind. I went to dgVoodoo v2.86.2 listed about and am following directions. I'll let you know how it goes.

Woo hoo! It worked! Thanks. Will I have to do this for all the ND games, then?

Woot! Probably not... It will depend from game to game. This one is quite old - 2014 I believe.

You would think the older games would be the problem on a new OS, not the newer games. Obviously this isn't always the case, but I can see why folks might assume that.
