My game kept crashing, either on DX9 or DX10. Running the DX10 version on compatibility mode set to Windows XP service pack 2 did the trick ( My OS is Windows 10 with the latest update as of 09/17/21) Some people will be instantly turned off by this. The game takes an unusual time to load for a game from 2006, taking into consideration my setup is relatively modern and loads any other games just fine. Patches or info is ancient and hard to find on the internet, I was hoping the sequels would be easier to use but on my search for solutions I found out that gunslinger and blood also have their own issues. Hopefully those will be a minute minority of cases.
