When booting the game my screen flicker non-stop until I quit the game. The only times it does not flicker is when a mission is loading. The flickering is pretty severe too. If I was subject to epileptic seizures I would be in trouble.
Perhaps it's a resolution issue? I don't know how to change the game resolution to 1920x1080 though.

The game seem to run just fine in any other regard.

Probably a Directdraw issue, it happens with several older games in Windows 7. You might want to check the other threads in this forum, and contact GOG support with a readout from Dxdiag if you're unable to find a fix.

Silly suggestion but try updating your drivers if you're using an AMD card. If that doesn't work write to us, please and send in that DxDiag as well :D
Hello! I have the same problem as described in the topic. The game itself runs smooth and fine, but the screen just flickers non-stop and it's unbearable to keep on watching at it.

I've updated all my drivers but that did not help. What H2IWClassic said intrigues me for that is something I've never tried. I don't quite know what Dxdiag is or where to find a readout from it, but I really want to see if this dxdiag thing doesn't fix my problem :)

Thanks in advance!
Start->Run-> then type in dxdiag. Press enter to confirm.

This should bring up a window titled "Directx Diagnostic Tool". Use the "Save All Information" button to produce a text file, which you can then attach to an email when you contact GOG's support team.

Thanks for your reply but apparently I fixed it!

It was very simple, I just opened the config program for the game and switched resolution to 800x600... and now I can play perfectly!

Is it possible to play this game 1v1 with TCP/IP?
And can this forum be used to find players to play against?

Yes, it's possible to play 1v1. You just have to decide who's going to host. Once that's decided, all you have to do is find out your proper IP address, have a friend join in, and you should be good to go :D

Feel free to use the forum to find people to play with, we're not going to stop you :D
A point I almost forgot and what fixed it for me. Crossfire, old games have the tendency to flicker if crossfire is enabled. Solved the problem for me.

How'd you open up the config program? I'm having trouble doing that with my game, and I have windows 7

Sorry for the late reply, I hope you see this.

It's a standalone program that should be installed alongside the actual game. You should find it in your KKnD folder, should be a red icon named Config.exe. Hope this helps.
