Just as i figured, I knew that a vm of xp would work, but who wants to dual boot xp just for one game you know. Works like a charm for many games, particularly older less demanding ones saving me reboots that I also have setup via bootcamp for newer more hardware intensive games. I recommend Parallels for the VM software. Ursprünglich geschrieben von DirtyHarry:You guys should just play this in an XP virtual machine set to use 2 cores like I do on my iMac. I am nearing the end of the game here and no problems at all with Parallels. If you decide to try Virtual Box I'd be interested in hearing how you make out with that.
If not, odds are the commercial VMware would probably work but the cost for a single game isn't worth it. So in this case, DirectX support I think may still be "experimental" but there is some implementation of it so if if you don't mind spending the time to give it a shot it won't cost you anything to find out if that solution would work. The thing about Virtual Box is it is open source and I think funded substantially by Oracle. You fire up the Virtual Machine software, such as Virtual Box or on a Mac I use Parallels and install XP into it and that install becomes a single virtual machine you can then boot Windows in once it's been installed to it. That's the beauty of running a virtual machine on your host operating system. Well, if you are running Windows and have XP, you could try Virtual Box which is free. After a few seconds, the launcher will start.įor proper 16:10 16:9 resolution fix for MP1 and MP2, see here: Now start the game by double clicking those files. Save them as "Max Payne 1.bat" and "Max Payne 2.bat" inside the Max Payne 1 and 2 folders. And did the followingĬreate two text documents one for Max Payne 1 and one for Max Payne 2
I then reseted the compatibility settings. I also tried fiddling with compatibility settings and checked run as administrator once but it didn't work. You might have to try starting the game at least once. To be on the safe side, restart your computer. What you have to do is to exit Steam and restart it. Nothing will happen but you will see maxpayne.exe and maxpayne2.exe tasks in task manager. I have an ATI 7970 and an Intel i7 using Windows 7 圆4Īfter Steam downloads the games, try starting the games once.
