xenxander: I have to exit with alt+tab to change focus and then manually close the game via the control bar at the bottom.
anyone else have this problem? I just bought this game hoping for something entertaining and I can't even play it.
lol it is 12 years later but this is the fix by me with the help of chatgpt.
Go to the folder where the game is installed, there is a file called ddraw.ini
Replace the contents of the file with this:
; cnc-ddraw configuration file for Jack Orlando DC
[ddraw]
; Renderer options: opengl, gdi, direct3d9, auto
renderer=opengl
; Run in fullscreen or windowed mode
fullscreen=true
; Maintain aspect ratio (no stretching)
maintas=true
; Integer scaling (sharp pixels, no blur)
integerScaling=true
; Enable vsync to avoid tearing
vsync=true
; Enable bilinear filtering (set to false for sharp pixel look)
filter=false
; Resolution handling: auto = desktop resolution
width=0
height=0
; Adjust mouse so it works correctly in menus
adjmouse=true
; Fix Alt+Tab issues in fullscreen
devmode=true
; Borderless fullscreen window (better on Win10/11)
borderless=true
; Resampling mode (nearest = sharp, linear = smooth)
resample=nearest
; Force single-core CPU affinity for old games
singlecpu=true
