Desert Storm 1 - 1080p 60FPS - Fix for super sonic speed and characters floating in air
How to run game at 60FPS and thus fix the super sonic speed and characters floating in air bugs:
Nvidia Control Panel does not work on this game, so do not bother using Nvidia Control Panel for this game. Download the latest recommended version of Rivatuna (currently 7.3.1) where it says ‘Download Locations’ at https://www.guru3d.com/files-details/rtss-rivatuner-statistics-server-download.html
Go on to RivaTuner – ‘Add’ – go to the .exe file of the game which is called ‘DesertStorm’ - DesertStorm.exe has now been added to the list – ‘DesertStorm.exe’ – ‘Framerate limit’ – type ‘60’ – turn off ‘On-Screen Display support’ – minimize RivaTuner

Go to the .exe file of the game which is called ‘DesertStorm’, *right click* – ‘Properties’ – ‘Compatibility’ – Untick the box where it says ‘Run this program in compatibility mode for:’

Open ‘Registry Editor’
For Windows 8 and above:
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Classes\VirtualStore\MACHINE\SOFTWARE\WOW6432Node\Pivotal Games\Conflict Desert Storm\Device Settings

Vietnam - 1080p 60FPS - Fix for stuttering
Fix for stuttering (only works for Nvidia GPU's): RivaTuner does not work on this game, so do not bother using RivaTuner with this game. Download GeForce Experience and Nvidia Control Panel if you dont already have them installed, Nvidia Control Panel can only be downloaded from the Microsoft Store. Open GeForce Experience, click top left where it says 'Drivers' – download the latest Game Ready Driver – Right Click on your Desktop and select 'NVIDIA Control Panel' – 'Manage 3D settings' – change 'Vertical sync' to 'On' – change 'Max Frame Rate' to '60'. Make sure to set the Max Frame Rate to either 30 or 60 as the game will not work on any other frame rates.

Go to the .exe file of the game which is called ‘Vietnam’, *right click* – ‘Properties’ – ‘Compatibility’ – Untick the box where it says ‘Run this program in compatibility mode for:’

Open ‘Registry Editor’
For Windows 8 and above:
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Classes\VirtualStore\MACHINE\SOFTWARE\WOW6432Node\SCi Games\Conflict Vietnam\Device Settings

For Windows 7 and below:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\WOW6432Node\SCi Games\Conflict Vietnam\Device Settings

Awesome guide, thank you! Works excellent, and like the author said just try a lower decimal value if it keeps resetting. That should do the trick after some trial and error.

Worked like a charm. Thanks!

@Jedburgh44 - try a lower number as the lower the number; the more likely it will be to work, so try like decimal 10. Because a number which is too high causes it to reset itself. Do this to see if whether or not the problem that you're having is that it doesnt work or that your number is too high to the point that its resetting itself.
Also try setting the amount in both the windows 7 location and the windows 8 location just to be sure

@Kelex98: It's unknowable; the values are not fixed but are dependent on your local system.

Though, I know of a workaround: Utilising dgVoodoo 2, set the following:
- DirectX -> Videocard: "GeForce4 Ti 4800", VRAM: '4096', Filtering: 'Bilinear', Resolution: 'Max', dgVoodoo Watermark: 'false'.
- DirectXExt -> Enumerated resolutions: Defaults: "None", Enumerated bit depths: "32", Extras: <your resolution of choice>.

1080 worked for me on W10 by setting compatibility mode W7 and decimal value to 16. My monitor is different and wonky with resolutions sometimes as I'm using a 55in TV. Locking FPS at 30 also makes the game run more normal (60 was running still too quick)

@Sheik Yerbouti - I had the exact same issue. I did what Banana Duck said and deleted/reinstalled. Did not mess with resolution in pre-launch settings dialog. What finally fixed it was trying Decimal 19 instead of 37. It seems if your display is told a resolution larger than supported, it defaults the game back to 800x600 to prevent failed launch. Setting to 19 got the game in 1920x1080p for me. It may me slighly different for you, I see many forums where people are saying slightly different decimals worked for them so may require some playing around.
