My games just 100% do not start up. I have windows 10. These games used to run. In fact I have the original CD 3DO versions that they worked just last year on this same installation. But now They crash on startup. Army Men 1 however runs just fine. I don't get it. I have tried all the compatibility settings under the sun from 97/ME checking all the blocks to doing the registry fixes and downloading the Microsoft Application compatibility tool and creating the fix that people are saying to make. No dice just crashes on startup. Is there something I am missing?

Just Enable DirectPlay in Windows "Programs and Features > Legacy Components"

That'll get your game working.

I, also, have the same problem. I've confirmed that DirectPlay is activated. Whenever I try to launch Army Men II, I get a crash message (screenshot attached). Army Men and Toys in Space both run for me.

In case anyone else is still having this problem, try deleting "ddraw.dll" in the main game directory. I went through a week of back-and-forth with GOG support, and nothing worked until the fella suggested that. As soon as I deleted that one file, it worked flawlessly.
