It's not working, also there is a newer version of dgvoodoo.

The locations for the correct files in the latest version of dgVoodoo have changed (2.83.2 at the time of writing).
dgVoodoo2_83_2\MS\x86 (even if you're on a x64 system)
is where you'll want to locate the D3DImm.dll and DDraw.dll .
Everything else reportedly works just fine as stated. Enjoy

Not only it worked like a charm, I used it also for Tomb Raider II, which took me hours searching in vain for someone to guide me! And guess what: neither weird auto-fixes, neither windows compatibility experiments! It made the game run as smooth as 20 years ago!! Strange that only few people seem to know this voodoo thing. Thank you Lynx! We owe you a lot!

Great guide! Took 2 minutes for me, and now I am enjoying this masterpiece at 21:9 resolution w/o any troubles. Thank you!:8bitheart:

It doesn't change the graphics quality for me, just makes mouse movement extremely slow. (The conf file did appear.)

For sure You choose correct folder and appear dgVoodoo.conf file?
