i have bought Blood 2 and apparently the game keeps freezing,
in forums i was told that the game is ffectively inoprationall and only solution is to get it from ifferent source (physicall media).
whilst i would love doing that the by now brittle CDs are probably not the best option.

i request officiall GOG patch of the game so that it can actually run please?
No posts in this topic were marked as the solution yet. If you can help, add your reply
If there is a solution to get it running, it's probably listed here:

Blood 2 - PC Gaming Wiki

I used a url shortener above because it's seemingly impossible to post a direct link here due to the url/game title including a colon ":".

Does it just freeze or display an error? Also try running it in compat mode if on Windows for Windows XP SP2 or Windows 98.

Also what OS ae you running?

What forums told you that? As thats false info. I run Blood 2 fine under Windows 10 from GOG's version.

Also I'm pretty sure that they patch PC Gaming link to is for the official CD release only, GOG's version suparsses that and contains all fixes from it and more.

* my os: Win 10 - 64bit

* the game just freezes randomly, here let e give you 2 examples:
A) launcher editing resolution (to annything) once that is done sometimes no buttons work on the launcher, sometimes only start works sometimes only quit works.
B) in the game whenever i do annything in menu (like changing keboard layout to prefered) or even after starting the 1st mission it just goes into the "please wait..." blank screen and dose nothing for about 5 mins before i loose patience with it

* i have tried SP3 XP did not think to try SP2 actually good point there ill go do that

* it was some link rom DDG search into gog, have not really replied to it but it was something explaining how to get it running on any (presumingly win post 9x) OS


oi how did you get Kate Archer avartar? is NOLF / 2 avalble on here?

Should that fail, then you can try the Blood 2 Res Patch which fixed it for me under Windows 7.

http://dege.freeweb.hu/Patches/Blood2ResPatch.zip

Its aimed at fixing the crashes that occurs when taking a certain res, but its worth a try anyway. Copy it to Blood II's directory. It will want to replace CLIENT.EXE so back tht up first then replace it and try launching it.

And regaring my avatar, sadly its not avaliable here (as much they should be) its one I made myself.

the XP SP 2 did not quite work (simillar to previous attempts it just randomly froze).
HWEVER thyne suggestion with the patch DID work.

NOLF +NOLF2 deserver HD remaster, i would omit contract J.A.C.K., because KATE is the charismatic witty superspy that we all care about not the whatshisname in the 3rd game.
