JMich: Any wiki user can create a page.

Do I need to make an account? Thanks.

JMich: Yes. Unsure if registrations are open again after the flood of spambots, you may be required to contact a wiki administrator to create the account for you. See here for the list of users.
Thanks JMich... I'll take a look at the wiki, if nothing else I could always do like a Google spreadsheet or something online and link it. I'll probably run into the character limit soon so and another option would be ideal. :)

I would like to add Loom, The Dig, Alpha Centauri, Pillars of Eternity, Heroes of Might and Magic 3, The Witcher, The Witcher 2 (you must run the directX setup in the game folder, otherwise it does not start), Divinity: Original Sin and Wasteland 2.

edit: oh, and Icewind Dale, and Baldur's Gate 1 and 2!

Witcher 3 works with a little workaround (I installed it with an older Windows 10 build, maybe now this isn't necessary): after installing the game, go to the folder where you installed Witcher 3 (Usually, GOG games/The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt/), open the folder _redist, then MSVC2012_x64 and launch vcredist_x64.

After this, launch Witcher 3 normally :)

These are just redistributables, these are standard for nearly all games... so I don't consider them tweaks and most gamers will already know this. Normally these are installed with the standalone installer if you don't already have them but Galaxy for some reason sometimes doesn't do it like it should.


So I'll list it as compatible soon. Thanks. :)
Posted June 25, 2015
I personally think this list shouldn't include games that require an emulator to run (dosbox, scummVM etc.) as these games will work fine as long as the emulator that runs them works fine in Windows 10 (unless there's an incompatibility aspect that I'm not aware of) and instead it should focus on games that rely on windows-related softwarey-things to run.

I'm going to try out a couple of problematic games to see if they start at all in Win10. Sucks for Flatout, though.

Probably but it makes people feel better to know for sure. xD

Yea I don't know what is going on with Flatout, it's weird. I'm going to take a better look at it soon and try to make sure it not something wrong with the games files, ect as I imported them in Galaxy from my old installation. It shouldn't be but there is that chance.

I tried.

Keep in mind, I'm running preview Win10 on a three-year old laptop (HP ProBook 4540s). The OS works fine (aside from Start Menu crashing at times) and it's running on AMD GPU. I'll keep installing games on this thing, but for now, this:

Gabriel Knight 3: Blood of the Sacred, Blood of the Damned - Doesn't work. GOG version asks me for a CD1. Inserting the actual disc from a retail version doesn't work. Installed retail version shows intro videos and gets to the main menu, but crashes as soon as I start Day 1. Setting compatibility to either WinXP or Win7 doesn't fix the problem.

Star Wars Republic Commando - Works. Doesn't even crash with bump-mapping on. Which is funny because my main gaming PC couldn't run this at all on NVIDIA hardware. And the game is a total blast!

UPDATE:

Tom Clancy's Rainbow Six - Doesn't work. The process from the .exe is there in the taskbar, but nothing happens.

Evil Genius - Works. The game is still a buggy mess as it ever was, though.
