HOW TO PLAY ON MODERN COMPUTER
By Magnum Opium
0. DOWNLOAD & INSTALL GAME " OBVIOUSLY "
1. DOWNLOAD dgVoodoo 2 program:

https://dege.fw.hu/dgVoodoo2/dgVoodoo2/ - recommended

2. PUT FILES FROM dgVodoo2 in your game install folder.
3. PUT FILES FROM dgVodoo2 from "from the archive MS\x86 folder to the same folder where your game executable is in. If it's a 32bit DirectX application then copy" - as instructed on their website.
-files should be DDraw D3DImm D3D9 D3D8

4. RUN dgVodooCpl.exe

Settings: Should be by default like this but still

Config folder should be your game root folder (where your platypus.exe is) eg <<YOUR DIRECTORY>>\common\Platypus

GENERAL TAB

Full Screen Stretched - (Personal prefferences)

3Dfx Card Voodoo 2

DirectX Tab

I left it default and I click apply.

5. RUN Platypus.exe

side notes:

if you have 2 screens have task manager on 2nd screen just in case something goes south
you may experience sporatic but non annoying sound bugs during gameplay
you may experience sound glitches on startup and on menu... buuut its not gameplay affecting soooooo...
you may need to lower the game volume from windows sound mixer for a more pleasant listening experience.

Played on Win 10 Ghost Spectre Super Lite
