    It's been 12 years since I played ToEE, I came along to these forums when Co8 started I think.

    I picked it up on GoG a while ago but didn't get around to playing it.

    I'm getting a flickering screen on any cutscenes and despite doing a bit of searching I don't seem to have come across anyone with the same problem. Is anyone aware of this and any kind of workaround?

    I haven't been able to get it to run after going to windows 10 at all. I have tried some of the quicker suggestions on GOG here but not the temple plus or uninstall/reinstalling.

    Tried so far: Was running well on on win 8.something
    1. made shortcut the .exe file add a screen resolution change switch in the file properties - target field.
    2. Various attempts at xp/7/8 compatibility modes
    .

    Check your config and set anti aliasing to 0 if it's at 1. Run as administrator. I can't get it to run in any compatibility modes, so try turning those off.

    I've noticed that the Co8 launcher gives an option to run in windowed mode. This stops the flicker and also means there's no crashing when alt-tabbing.
