I have an old version of Myst IV and Myst III, and they run just fine on my windows 10 installation. Totally thrilled by this project though :) The series (and especially Riven) kept me in front of the computer for a loooong time in my youth.
- mkirklions 9y agoSo you have a CD drive? I gave up on CDs when I was dealing with a corrupt CD drive or SATA cable. It was weird, but after I disconnected it, it took me years to use it, and that was for Ubuntu install.
- dudul 9y agoExternal yeah. But for most of my old games (that are not yet on GOG) I just turn them into iso and use a no-cd when necessary. Too lazy to plug the drive every time :)
- alleyshack 9y agoWhat black magic did you have to do to get Myst III to run fine on Windows 10? I tried it a couple months ago and it was so slow and janky and low-res that it wasn't playable. (Maybe because I was using a USB CD drive?)
- dudul 9y agoI don't remember doing nothing special really. For the slowness, see my other reply. I usually don't run directly from the CD drive. The one that gave me the most troubles was Riven (before I got it from GOG). For this one I had to do some mumbo-jumbo to finally get a full screen yeah.
- alleyshack 9y agoHuh, I wonder where I went wrong. Exile just... didn't function. But then, I was trying to run it on my shiny new VR rig, so it might've just been hardware compatibility. :/ Thanks!
