Solved Scarface, Graphic Problems (Diffrent)

[SysProblem]

Hello,

I read through nearly every forum but I always found the same problem. But for some reason I have a diffrent problem. I can play the game like regular but everyone stands there like this one scene from titanic, I will attach a picture so you know what I mean, I tried pretty much everything but I just can't make it work.

Please anybody has any idea, I did the regular stuff like: Updating, patching, 1 Processor threating, XP compability and so on.

Thank you for reading this

Yours sincerely, SysProblem

What happens exactly in this scene? Does it crash immediately? Anyways, try the following:

Update your Graphics Card: ATI Radeon

Update DirectX: Download Details - Microsoft Download Center - DirectX End-User Runtime

Also, at what graphics settings are you running the game?

I'm installing the drivers right now.
Althought it's not about the graphic settings. I already manipulated them as far as possible. I even tried forced DX9 mode didn't work either. It doesn't make any sense to me because it seems like a major missing of an animation.

Just update DirectX and your Graphics Card drivers first, then we'll move onto other things if that doesn't fix the problem.

Ok I tried a few things, and strangely I get the error, this is no 32bit software. I guess that's the reason why it doesn't work but before it worked, this stuff is getting strange and stranger xD

What stuff did you do? And what is the error message exactly?

I installed a virtual machine, Microsoft XP Mode. You can get it on the official MS page. I can just say it in german sry, I do not know what exactly it is in eng. C:\Program Files (x86)\Radical Games\Scarface\Scarface.exe ist keine zulässige Win32-Anwendung.

Good possibility that you are just going to be SOL getting that game to work on Windows 7,

I could post more links but pretty much every one that I have found all say the same thing, that game only works on XP.

Ok thank you, damn virtual Pc only for 32 bit -.-
Hope there will be an unofficial fan patch or something similar.

Thank you, I'm going to close this thread now.
