Windows 7 Game Compatibility List

[pawz7]

couldn't get Industry Giant to install. Probably too old....
The Settlers Rise of an Empire works fine on x64. Automatically updated to 1.7.1

 

[Diosoth]

ScummVM works without any real hassle. This isn't a game, I guess, but a modern frontend to running old Scumm engine Lucasarts DOS games. However, Aero doesn't like full screen mode.

Mass Effect 2- Flawless on Ultimate x64.

The games not working are not worth t be working old and dated.glad all new ones are fine daing back a few years.

Was installing some of my older games that worked just fine with 7 x64, thought you may want to update the list.

1. Call of Duty 2 (had to set "setup.exe" on disc to run compatable w/XP)
2.Vampire the Masquerade : Bloodlines
3.Beyond Good & Evil -->notes
<<BGE seems to have issues with the (HW Vertex Processing) setting in config w/newer graphics cards. Unchecking it fixes the issue. Causes corrpution in some areas.
Also says the GPU drivers are ouht of date in configuration tool. Other than that works flawless.>>
4.BloodRayne2
5.Star Wars: KOTOR

Railroad Tycoon II (not "Platinum Edition")

"Take Two Heritage" collection, version "E 1.01", refuses to install on 7 Professional 64 bits.

Workaround: install on another OS or in "Windows XP Mode" and copy/paste directory.
Currently playing "Ironseed Campaign", everything seems OK.

Transport Giant Gold from Jowood installs and runs perfectly on W7 x64 with no tweaking and no problems but TG Gold combined with TG Down Under does not

 

[pawz7]

Journey to the Moon installs and runs without any fiddling on W7 x64

 

[pawz7]

W7 x64 - Hostile Waters works. Patched, installed and played without any compatibility or mods needed, though I kept the graphics on default settings because of its age. Really suprised me as the game is so old.

 

[pawz7]

Two Worlds runs on W7 x64, but I had to update it to 7b to get it to run

 

[pawz7]

Medieval Lords installs on W7 x64 but brings up an error when asked to run. Doesn't recognise the system I think, probably a protection thing. I would have put the patch on (1b?) but to do that you need to install Gameshadow it seems - or pay for the download from Fileplanet. I opted for the former, though I have had probs with GS before and would rather not.. well, it wouldn't send me my login details, so I created a new account and on the web am registered and activated - but the client (latest version) still does not recognise my account as registered, and turning the machine off and on makes no difference, so I have given up as the game is hardly good enough to make further tries worth the effort.

Mount&Blade working on x64, patched but otherwise no tweaks

Witcher EE (patched to v1.5) runs ok, but TAGES as usual is being blocked by win 7. Which maybe the cause of the occasional crash to desktop :sarc: ?

Worms Armageddon Works as long as you install the latest update from the homepage.
The game will display in a strange colour pallette BUT this can be fixed by ending the explorer.exe before you start the game.

Below is a batch file i have used to kill explorer, start the game, then start explorer again when you exit the game. Just drop it into your game directory:

@echo off
taskkill /f /IM explorer.exe
wa.exe /nointro
Start explorer.exe

I tried this in 7600 x86.
